Su25 AI + infinite ammo = fps crushed.

We were flying a rather popular mission that included some AI su25s doing some business around different targets and with infinite ammo. I've flown the mission quite a few times... For whatever reason the one unit was hit and the second, flying in loose formation, basically just started firing his cannon and didn't stop for about 15 minutes. The resulting explosions crushed frames on the server (except for ka50s- mostly on a-10) down to about 3-5 fps especially in proximity. He just flew everywhere- shooting the entire time. Right through one of our bases, back around.... Through the odd city or two.

I'm quite certain it kicked a few people (dropped while they were afk). Obviously the solution here is to disable infinite ammo... But has anyone else seen such behavior?

Admittedly the mission is a bit older- and I'm fuzzy on the specifics because the guy is an amazing mission designer and I don't have any impression this was a design error at all.

Anyway- ring a bell?
