[REPORTED]Embark/disembark issues (APC/Helos IA)

[Tarres]

Embarking troops in APC/IFV seems randomly broken, as in Helos (AI).

 

E.g. BMD-1: max 4,

Groups of 4 only embark 3 in best case scenario. 1 group of 3 AND 1 group of 1 work perfect, when they work... (Pathfinding issue?)

MT-LB: max of 5 in a group. Troops available: 11

BTR-80/BMP series: max of 4. Troops available 8

Seems like max/2 or something related

 

For heavy helos or AI helos in general , I have no idea, MI-26 sometimes embark 40, sometimes 70.

For medium ones 10 is the maximum.

 

Maybe related with the MAX/2 issue?

 

For Controlled ones, sometimes you need to issue a embark/disembark command until troops are finally embarked.

 

Thanks in advance.

I also have this, glad I'm not alone : https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=4297256&postcount=15 .

I´ve found some consistent behavior:

APV/AIFV: groups of half capacity minus one embark and disembark. E.g. BMD-1: capacity 4, embarks 1 group of 3 and 1 group of 1. Maximun 5 in MT-LB (11 max)

 

Helos (IA) 5 or in the biggest ones (53/26/47) 20 seems the optimum. KA-27, groups of 1.

 

Human Helos, groups of 5 seem ok, or use the embark/disembark until all the group is embarked.

 

Noe: USMC AAV7 ha no cargo capability at the moment.

I´ve tested your mission.

 

The problem is related to the point distance of the embarking point. (MAYBE)

 

I ´ve post a modified version.

 

I think that some problems are related to the pathfinding behaviour.

 

I´m doing a couple of examples to upload here.

I've noticed that issue yesterday flying my Huey. I had to embark a group of 8 soldiers, but only 5 have been boarding. Edited April 27, 2020 by AstonMartinDBS

Thanks for the heads up;

I should put points closer?

Or maybe the formation used has an impact? I didn't use the "off road" formation, I don't know if this has any bearing on AI behavior.

I've been able to board up to 8 in 1 go in a Huey now, but that's really inconsistent, unfortunately :(

Whisper, I don´t know...

 

Here it´s a second example (IA). Sometime works, sometimes not...

 

A pair of related bugs:

AAV-7: no troops.

SH-60B: 4 troops capabitity, must be 0.

 

Chinese IFV, but it belongs to Deka.

In MP, only the FIRST HELICOPTER to issue the "embark command" works as intended.

 

Other helos (Human) can not embark.

Hi,

 

We do have an open report for embark in MP.

 

thank you
