Something just happened... Not fun in a way, but in a way still fun* :blink:
Ok. So. Some random crash place... Didn't pay any attention. I'm still kinda noobish so I sent 1/2 of my skyrangers there... Gave a blaster launcher to a girl with x (bad psi strength), but I thought it wouldn't hurt... You can just see it coming, can't ya?* LOL

Well, not exactly that.

But anyway.

I sent 1 guy off to left of the ramp, looking around. Spotted an ethereal. Heavy laser aimed shot... miss. Then I remember the blaster launcher girl... So I thought I'll unload the BL. Well, it wasn't loaded, so I loaded it and shot the ethereal. Almost, that is. I guess is was the unaccyracy of the BL, but it was supposed to go like this: BL shot out of Skyranger, around it, landing on ethereal.

It went like this: BL shot flies clean out of the skyranger and... flies back in. Killing 5 out of my 6 guys. Fun. Kinda. Not. Anyway, I guess it's because of the inaccuracy of the BL? Can't be anything else now can it? Oh well. I guess I'll finish the mission later. Just don't wanna do it right now*
I think Jman is right; you were probably trying to tell the bomb to go from right over the head of the target to the ground the target was standing on, but the game doesn't allow that vertical-style movement. It's annoying, but just try to move diagonally-down (or up, for that matter), and don't aim for the target, set one waypoint in front of the target, another behind the target, etc.:

[6][4][2]target[1] [3][5] = five chances to hit the target.
