dudeman17 Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 I'm trying to set up a mission and the thing I am struggling with is when the tanker is low on gas I would like him to fly to an airport, refuel then take off and resume the orbit as before. I have tried to have the option at waypoint two were the tanker will RTB on bingo. That part works fine, he flies to waypoint three (which is the landing waypoint) at waypoint three he has the command "refueling" then waypoint 4 is in the air just off the runway. At that Waypoint, I used the command switch to waypoint 1. All I've gotten is RTB then he goes and parks, at which point he shuts down and the crew jumps out. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

AegisFX Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 AI units can not land and takeoff again. Consider maybe spawning a unit on or above the runway a few minutes after the tanker lands?

Looney Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Use an event onlanding or something to spawn a new tanker that takes up the old one's patrol.

winchesterdelta1 Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Refuel the tanker with another tanker :) Go in close, and when you think you are too close, go in closer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm that's a little silly, maybe we should have a thread devoted to adding improved AI functionality to allow this...

Eamoe Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 AI units can not land and takeoff again. This has been bugging me since forever. Why is it still so? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whaaw Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 This has been bugging me since forever. Why is it still so? they have to be swiss pilots, our pilots only work from 0700-1700 office time. SFMBE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eamoe Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 they have to be swiss pilots, our pilots only work from 0700-1700 office time. By some weird coincidence, I happen to be Swiss too, whaaw. So I confirm. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
