Wingman and Tower Stuck after update 12/16

[BIGNEWY]

update

 

potential work around

 

1. Open the mission you are about to fly in the mission editor, run the mission and un-pause, wait for the mission to settle, then exit.

 

2. Go to the campaign menu as usual and fly mission, AI should react now.

 

I will try to keep you updated on this, it is an important issue and we understand the frustration.

 

Thanks

BIGNEWY, thanks for the update.

 

looks like the same bug as in the mirage campaign and look like more or less the same workaround.

 

Please see this topic https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=178955 and check the work around given in post 17.

 

Basically it look likeit works every two mission even though it's not the same mission you are playing.

 

Hope it can help to eradicate the bug

[mrbisshy]

Nah, I stay on stable till 2.5 OB is released.

Thank you for the fix, now the flight follows as usual and ATC is answering correct, too.

Do you use 1.5.5? The Campaign-Fix is included in Openbeta atm.

 

Edit: Oh, didn't see your post Bignewy.

[Sulaco]

Just wanted to stop by to say this has indeed been fixed.

 

Flew the first two missions last night and they were excellent, really looking forward to the rest of the campaign!

[Ranger79]

Good to hear! Thanks for the feedback!

I can confirm that mission 6 works perfectly now.

 

 

The CBU-97 did a great job on the convoi. Never before had I such success with this weapon. :D

Sorry it was in the mission 6.

At the second try it works.
