I gave my Kolibri a depthcharge to drop, it shows, but instead of dropping it just disappears after releasing.

So I am doing something wrong or forgot a line in the dp or ???

Help (as always) welcome.

Sounds like the DP is missing a bomb listing in the [GUNSTATIONS] section?

gunstation.#=3,21,8,0.00,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0

Hi Allen,
This is what I made, but doesn't work. (I changed the depthcharge for a bomb for a better view). Maybe you can make it work?

Change

gunstation.0=3,21,8,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1

To

; Bomb
gunstation.1=3,21,8,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1

You also have

// in front of

//[GUNSTATIONS]

and

//mount.7=wep_br_depthcharge

which means these entries are "commented out".

Which means they won't work. I'm assuming you removed these // ?

The entry

[Guns.1]
gun.0=0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0

Means it carries "nil" weapons at Gunstation.1

Change to read

[Guns.1]
gun.0=1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0

I just noticed payload 2 also has an SC50 bomb.

If you're keeping this as well, the bombload total will need to increase to 2 instead of 1

[Guns.1]
gun.0=2,0,0,0,0,0,0,0

Hope this fixes it.
 
Thanks again, I had changed the depthcharge with a bomb for I hoped that that would solve the problem, but with your help it's ok now and I changed the bomb with a depthcharge and now everything is fine!
