Logos Bombers are not dropping Payload with Patrol/FaW

[Kenku]

I haven't tried it with Nova yet, but this seems to be an issue of Logos Precision and Napalm Bombers. I have set them out on Patrol in chicken games to bomb any oncoming targets(ie Blobbers, Spikers), but when such targets appeaear, they fly over them as if there was nothing there. Only way to get them to actually bomb targets is to order them directly.

I have checked for FaW, and unless that is not bomber default, thats what its set to.

Works fine for me, though sometimes they cannot turn fast enough to attack a unit if they've only just acquired the target (which patrol/fire at will will do) and have to do a second run, and you also must remember that bombers must refuel between runs, could it be this?

[Kenku]

It could be I missed the refuel, and had missed the Napalmers dropping their payload...Ill have to try agian next chicken game and see if I can repeat it.

I doubt it was turning. The biggest case that came up was a group of 30-40 of the small fry in the maps center choke point(in the middle of the long way of the patrol path).

Looking at the old replays I see Im wrong. The main issue seems to be a bad patrol route and the targets rapidly dying before the bombers make it back around for another pass. I'll just have to keep that in mine the next time I play with air(or just spot carpet bomb as I had in a later game)
