norbot Posted February 2, 2020 Posted February 2, 2020 I would recommend installing Tacview (https://www.tacview.net/). With Tacview you can always see what happened in a mission and hone your skills.

scotth6 Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 Well my wingman (instructor) flew in to me upon turning in for the final approach the second time I flew this mission, and blew me up. Maybe something similar happened. I didn't get a "fratricide" message though. Just died :(
doclucio Posted February 3, 2020 Author Posted February 3, 2020 i think in a one on one match of the bfm campaign in a front encounter i used my gun and killed the other pilot...or maybe 2 idea, my instructor crashed by himself while landing...in any case it was not my fault
GoodHope Posted February 4, 2021 Posted February 4, 2021 I've flown 3 missions in this campaign and my wingman has also flown into me twice. Once while in a slight decent after the last waypoint (mission 1) and another while on a gentle climb shortly after after departing Nellis (between waypoints 3 and 4). Sorry, I didn't save the track file, but if it happens again I'll save it and post it.
Sabre-TLA Posted February 4, 2021 Posted February 4, 2021 Unfortunately the AI is still a work in progress. Please forward the trk files if you encounter it again and I'll send it to ED. They are working on improving the AI so hopefully they can do something about the mid-air collisions too. As a workaround the AI doesn't react quickly to sudden movements so try and make your turns more slowly and keep an eye on your wingman's positioning. It might not stop them from crashing into you but it might help you avoid them. MapleFlagMissions - Read Our Blog for Updates
GoodHope Posted February 6, 2021 Posted February 6, 2021 Thanks Sabre--I'll give that a try. Definitely not trying to knock the campaign--you guys have done a wonderful job and it has been a lot of fun and a great learning opportunity as well. Best, Hope
