Janus bombs track to units and buildings instead of dropping in a line

So this bug will just not die, it's still around and is as bad as ever. It also seems to be present in the scorcher (UEF T1 bomber).

it's not tracking.... the bombs are just launched in the direction of the estimated target position. try to play around with these values: https://github.com/FAForever/fa/blob/22737d8080277b0bc7b3752bab538c7d81578b83/units/DEA0202/DEA0202_unit.bp#L507-L512

Ok, thanks for the tip cookie. I'm aware it's not technically tracking but that word describes the behaviour well imo.

the important thing is that there is tracking in the game. I.e. anti air missiles track their targets, in the nomads mod there are several missiles that do that too (or did until I changed it recently)... so it's a bit misleading when you speak about tracking

@Garanas this can be closed as it is not a bug or maybe just get the balance team to see if this is something they want to change or not
