[NEED TRACK REPLAY]AI wingman behavior - low level

[Notso]

I've noticed several times when flying a mission - the AI wingman has hit the ground while flying low level through the mountains. Not 100% of the time more but more often than not my wingman has morted himself in the dirt while flying a low level ingress in mountainous terrain. I usually have them in Line abreast formation so they are about a mile apart. Not sure why they can't avoid the rocks on their own.

 

Is it because I'm doing inverted ridge crossings through saddles in mountains and they are somehow tied to my maneuvering and can't avoid hitting the ground. The only way I've been able to get them to not go splat in the dirt is to send them to a loose Wedge formation.

 

Has anyone else seen this?

Yeah, I've had it happen to me. They're not the sharpest tools in the shed. In my case, I've found that Trail formation also works, since they'll more or less follow me through valleys etc. It's not failproof though

Hi

 

Can you do me a short track replay showing this behaviour.

 

thanks

I apologize in advance for the stupid question, but how do I do this? I'm still fairly new to the DCS interface. Happy to help if you can give me a quick explanation of how to record or access this.

No problem.

 

When you exit a mission during the debrief window you can save the track replay.

then you can go to advanced here on the forum when you replay and attach it to the post.

 

hope that helps.

Great, thanks. I will do that the next time a wingman splats him or herself in the weeds. I'll work on that now.... ;-)
