[4.9.7] Single Stuka strike not damaging bridges

Post by RellHaiser »

- Attempted twice to destroy a bridge with this and there was no apparent damage (no cracks or anything).
- I did observe the strike during both attempts to ensure the aircraft was not shot down and that the bomb hit the target.

The north bridge on a 3rd party map called "Vire Conflict" which I use for testing new versions due to the very abundant resource income it offers. It is definitely a destructible bridge as all other means worked to take it down (ie. demo charges, artillery, manually attacking ground with other things, and the RAF rocket strafe attack in my current test game).

It was very unexpected/surprising to see the first 1000 kg bomb hit it and have nothing happen :lol:

EDIT: Tested again, destroyed and then repaired bridges are also immune.
EDIT 2: Further testing using the vanilla Vire River map reveals that the bombs do some damage to bridges, but not much. I pretty much expect a 1000 kg bomb to kill a bridge in a single hit. Out of curiosity I just checked the weight of the rounds used by the Sturmtiger, the heaviest that gun could fire weighed 376 kg.

The 1 Ton bomb will make more damage to bridges in the next update.
