SgtPappy Posted August 20, 2020 Posted August 20, 2020 Not sure if this is exactly the right place to put it but I have had no luck with any AWACS that I have setup in mission editor. Before the patch, they worked in every mission but now, I can tune into their channel for example and hear that they are on station but I cannot request to talk to them (the AWACS option does not appear in the menu anymore). Did the method of making them work in ME change or is it just broken? I tried this with the F-5, the F-14 and F-15. No luck, although I can talk to other airbases. This happens in both the Syria map and Caucasus.

SgtPappy Posted August 20, 2020 Author Posted August 20, 2020 Attached is my track. Funny thing is, I can contact AWACS in some of the other servers so they must have set it up right. The changes to ME have certainly made my previous method obsolete.AWACS not functioning.trk
SgtPappy Posted August 25, 2020 Author Posted August 25, 2020 I think you can close this thread now. The solution is to not have "AWACS" as a task in addition to "AWACS-a" in the AWACS aircraft's waypoint actions. My old missions needed this but now it is unnecessary and the AWACS will work fine with an orbit and default actions.
