[NO BUG, CLOSED] Su27 multi-lock and ECM

[Falcon_S]

Last night we fly simple mission 3 clients vs 2x AI Su27.

 

1. Two AI`s Su27 maintain SST lock in same time at 3 targets (players). - Is this something new or BUG?

 

2. AI Su27 blinking with ECM and i can`t lock him. Is this something new or BUG?

The way ECM works now, is that AI will by default use ECM only if locked. The AI can turn on ECM instantly. If the ECM does go on, you need to lock them a second time quickly, before they turn it off. Then you will be put in AOJ mode.

I know that.

 

... The AI can turn on ECM instantly.

 

Hmm... and we can`t. And we know why. :music_whistling:

Because they don't run Macros to blink the ECM like human players do !

[Falcon_S]

I remember discussions when the F15C pilots complained about ECM blinking. Anything is mentioned in them and even macro`s.

 

In order to prevent that it was decided by ED for startup ECM we must wait 15sec becuse ECM takes some time to launch in reality. Afterwards nobody said it was because of macro`s.

 

Now, AI not use macro`s and can use "unreal" ECM. Right?

 

BTW, i can live with this but if is not BUG i must go and report BUG for client`s Su27 because they can`t use ECM instantly.

 

Something does not fit in this whole story. That`s it.
