Question about the bombardment assignment

Post by MrDGY » Thu, 26. Jan 23, 21:37

Hi all, I'm a bit confused about the new assignment "bombardment". Is it actually intended to be the completely inverse of "interception"?

In the order.fight.escort script it seems so. Because all checks (at least the ones I have seen) regarding bombardment are the inverse version of interception. But it seems not to be the case in other scripts. For example, the fight.attack.object.capital.CapitalLaunchFighters action has check to prevent launching interception ships to capital ship or surface elements, but it allows launching bombardment subs to S or M ships. Also the same action will never launch S ships to the entire capital ships, whether they are assigned as bombardment or not. Launching S subs with bombardment role to capital ships should be fine since they will automatically target surface elements.

It seems that for bombardment, the target can ONLY be the entire capital ship, not surface elements of a capital ship. Also stations are not eligible target of bombardment. Is it correct?
