Post subject:  Airstrike clusters and fire

There seem to be a problem when editing an airstrike to make its strikelets explode into clusters or fire. In fact none of the 2 options works and when the strikelet explode, nothing happens.
I looked also at the napalm strike to see how it handled fire, but it seems that neither it uses the explode into fire option.
I tried many times but to no avail. Can someone give me a hint please?

Fixed in the latest update, PX scheme editor bug. :)

I tried again today and the fire option works perfectly :)
However I cannot seem to make the "explode into clusters" option working: I keep getting my clusters out but they stand still where they are deployed, or, on rarer cases, they start to slowly fly upward ignoring the auto-explode value.
I'll continue testing :)

If you're editing weapons on 1st page, disable "Allow WA scheme to tweak power" option , btw.

Thank you for your quick reply.
I have already disabled that option and I'm editing a 2nd page weap.
It seems like the clusters that come out from my airstrike aren't affected by gravity, at all; in fact if I set the bounce value to, let's say 50, they do a bounce and then fly up at moderate speed

Also same bug with:
Homing missiles with fixed shooting power have the same bug (they arent affected by gravity).
If ull try to make copy of cluster grenades without "copy" button ull fail - cluster pieces will have this bug.
Any grenades with fixed shooting power have the same bug.
--edit
1st and 3rd options have something like "high SpeedDivider and zero GravityFactor" and 2nd option - "zero SpeedDivider and zero GravityFactor", to be more correct.

I kinda "solved" that issue.
Since I was trying to do a "driller airstrike" in which the strikelets were parachuting worms and the clusters were the drillers, I set the bounce and bounce acceleration value to around -80 so that every bounce made them dig deeper :). Not really a solution but a workaround that works
