Friendly Fire.

I'm doing Over The Hump, and in missions 3 and 5, the SA-15 Tor beside the runway always shoots me down as I takeoff. I've tried taxiing down the runway further, and it worked for mission 3, but not 5. Besides, it shouldn't even fire at me, what should I do?:helpsmilie:

Well, I figured it out, but only after 3-4 losses by it, and some trial and error. First I tried going into mission planner, but I couldn't move it. Then I tried going into mission editor after that, and just deleting it and saving it. That worked, but only after I'd done mission 5 did I discover that I still had to do it in the campaign, with the SA-15 Tor still there, and doing the modified one was just like doing a single player mission. Then I tried taking off from a taxiway, but I crashed into a static object while taking off.

Finally, I just asked permission to takeoff, and then it worked fine. I guess it's good to know, but I'm kinda bummed to have those extra losses in my logbook, and having done the mission for nothing.

Wow, that's some serious ATC enforcement.

On another mission, Sweep, I got shot down again, but I had asked permission to taxi and takeoff, and the ATC had let me. Also, in the debriefing, there's no indication of me being shot at. HELP!

Made it by taxiway takeoff, but then in the final mission it's still shooting at me. Somebody, help!

I managed to finish the campaign, but only after that did I discover what the problem actually was. I'd left the bird level at 10,000, instead of 0! I guess that SA-15 Tor wasn't to blame, after all.
