ASF shooting aircraft carrier

[liqwidstyx]

ASF can easily dedstroy an aircraft carrier if asf are landing in it.

The projectiles fired can and will damage anything they impact. This is not a bug but rather how the game was intended to work. Now as a solution, it could be possible to allow fighters docked with or departing from a carrier to be non-targetable. Once away from the carrier they can be scripted to allow targeting as usual. The end effect here is that the carriers would be less likely to receive damage from AA projectiles.

The Midway battle was an example of how aircraft and their bombs/torpedos/ammunition that were exposed to direct fire, contributed for the sink of four japanese carriers.Better stay , IMHO, originally, as the game was intended to work.

Ofcourse it's not intended. If it was, they would make ground targets always targetable by AA weapons, not only if there are planes inside of it.
It's a side-effect of the engine. Were the devs aware of it? Most likely. But that doesn't make it intended by design.

Is this something that really needs fixing? How often does it come up?

The game is full of examples of projectiles colliding with objects or units not directly intended to be targeted. It's by design and is definitely intended. The dev's have cleary stated that in the past.

in past was fixed similar problem where was asf denny shield, because shoot on air under shield, or on air production...
This si totaly same only carrier is already ussles, so it occur rare. It is kind of exploit

[Col_Walter_Kurtz]

Nuke colliding with air is also rare but good fun and no exploit.

ASF shooting shields can be done consistently so I can see why that is annoying, but not unfair IMO.

Okay so they removed ASF killing fatboys, So i think they need to put a significant damage reduction on the carrier to ASF weapons as well. I am not saying immunity but a 90% damage reduction or something.

Do they shoot while they are in the process of landing or when they are stored inside the carrier?
