Understanding AI logic : patrol take-off/landing

[CougarFFW04]

Hi again,

 

Another question concerning the ME.

I did a search with "patrol" but didn't find the solution.

 

Is it possible to have AI taking-off/landing by pair ?

 

I have noticed that if one select the "runawy TO" option at first WPT they do it. But if they start from the parking they TO one by one.

How to force them to take off together ?

I do not see any option for that.

 

 

Concerning the pair landing, when I was experimenting the ME, in one of my first mission I DO see two M200 landing in pair.

Since that never seen it again :cry:

 

Any idea ?

 

Thanks

Take-off in pairs is only done on runway spawns. Otherwise the AI just taxi to the runway and take-off immediately.

 

Landing in pairs is mostly automatic as long as there are multiple aircraft in the group. Occasionally the second aircraft in the pair will have issues getting into the right position for the landing and will abort the attempt.

 

They won't try landing in pairs on carriers or specific airbases with narrow runways.
