it's not "dumb", it's an explosive reactor and the gunships happen to fly low enough to be affected by its explosion. also, increasing their flight height makes flak projectiles take longer to reach them. as a result flak needs to shoot further ahead on their trajectory, making it ever so slightly easier for gunships to dodge flak projectiles. no change comes without consequences

This is not fixed in map gen 1.12.1

@futureman If you are banned, you will not be able to login to the FAF launcher. It'll instead show you a distinct message which includes the reason for your ban, for which replay that ban was applied, and for how long the ban will last. Seems like you have unrelated chat issues, check in the discord for someone that can help you fix.
