Sulman Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 Hi all, Playing some guns only engagements for fun, I noticed that the AI will usually withdraw from a fight when one engine is damaged or set fire to. They seem to perform as if it's not modelled - an F-14 ran away at 1100 K/Ph, and I neared Vne trying to catch a MiG-25 that had one engine on fire and one damaged (he later landed and taxied happily burning away). Not a particular beef as it wasn't as if they tried to engage me, but is this a regular thing? I have noticed AI aircraft not being able to use burners after cannon-shell strikes, but with no noticeable effect on their flight envelope.

Shaman Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 Hehehe, take some gun shots on C-130. You can take out 3 of 4 engines and it will still climb very well trying to avoid you. 51PVO Founding member (DEC2007-) 100KIAP Founding member (DEC2018-) :: Shaman aka [100☭] Shamansky tail# 44 or 444 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] 100KIAP Regiment Early Warning & Control officer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KILSEK Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 From here. http://lockon.co.uk/index.php?end_pos=950&scr=default&lang=en The second bulletpoint down is this. "AI aircraft use the same flight dynamic system as player-controlled aircraft." Does this mean that if Sulman does the same thing in BS that the damaged A.I. controlled jets will then lose performance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weta43 Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 That's what I would take from it. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Force_Feedback Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 About the C-130, not only can it fly well with 3 engines down, it also keeps flying with his whole tailplane missing, and still he's doing some superguman engine thrust management with 1 engine :P Jack Bauer is flying that thing, that's for sure, and when you do shoot it down, he performs a HALO jump. But since we don't have a Jack Bauer texture yet, he's completely invisible. Creedence Clearwater Revival:worthy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
