Bonsai

Recommended Posts

I haven't really tried this yet. But has anyone figured out a system on how to do a bonsai plane. Thats where you jump out and after a min it will hit something like a target, or town or something. Well, anyone figure this out yet? I'm not entirely sure if its possible since engine cuts when you get out.

NOTE* Mods, i didn;t know where i should ask this, so if it needs to be moved, move it.

And this would be better suited for Addons and Mods or Mission Editing(scripts)

Sure, it's easy:

Step 1) As you are flying the plane scan around to find a suitable target

Step 2) Once target is aquired turn plane towards target

Step 3) Once facing the target move so that it is in the center of the screen

Step 4) Accerate towards target while making minor course corrections so that target stays in the center

Step 5) Just before impact bend forward and kiss ass goodbye

There, wasn't that simple smile.gif

nonono, not kamakazie. This is a WWII thing that i learned before. What the allies would do was take a B52 or whatever, pack it full of explosives. Then, get to high alititude, set it on a crouse, and with some equations, eletronics and luck. They would then jump out over frienly territory. The plane would then go off on its crouse and impact a designated target. It didnt work very well, but in OFP, i think we could make it work.

Seeing as the B-52 didn't even exist in WW2, they used old B-17's and 24's. I heard a few stories about this, the pilots would take-off and bail out before the plane reached the English Channel and the plane would guide itself towards the target and blow up. I'm not sure if this ever happened succesfully but I know of one incident where the plane blew up prematurely over England, causing windows to crack for miles around.

i kno it wasnt the B52, but i just meant that to be the idea of a plane packed with explosives doing what i said.

Waaa, talking about Kamikaze, I am the best at it in OF MP, last time I kamikazed a enemy base, killed 2 BMP + 12 guys, my best RECORD!! TO do it good, read history books on WWII and you will become a master of Kamikaze.

do the planes continue in a straight line after you bail, then you can just line up your target and jump, or if it sort of drifts down then skill will come into play smile.gif

Ok, Kamikaze sacrifice their life and plane together for something good. So they die during the process BUT if ur are pussy cat and wanna live, this is what you DO:

For Plane, fly as HIGH AS POSSIBLE and when you see ur target, START decend and make sure ur PLANE's nose face the target, when the altitude is about 100-50, bail out.

Same goes with heli but needs a little more practice.
