- - Is this a bug? (http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/showthread.php?t=46933)

At the end of my turn I watch my opponent's artillery phase. I had in neighbouring hexes, MBTs and IFVs. One on each hex. a Eurofighter fires at one of the tanks, VIRSS saves it, but somehow the missile (shrapnel?) destroyes an IFV.
The same plane fires a second missile, same thing happens only this time I lose several vehicles....wtf

I attach the file I sent him (click on replay) in case it is a bug.

No bug. The weapon class is doing what it always has done.

Re: Is this a bug?

I strongly suspect it would be a near impossible nightmare to "fix" the game code in WinSPMBT to deal with aircraft launched guided missiles hitting only their intended target.
ALL aircraft weapons in the game are Weapon Class 11, 17, or 18.
A new weapon class would have to be added to "fix" the problem.
