reported AI wingmen will NOT engage enemies or respond to commands in 'FURBALL' quickmissions.

[REDEYE_CVW-66]

I have not tested them all, but I have tested all Spitfire and several of the P-47 'furball' missions. In all I have seen, the AI does not respond to calls to attack enemies.

 

I have seen this building missions myself: Sometime an extra waypoint is needed to "wake up" the AI before he starts doing what you tell him.

 

As it is now, the wingmen in these missions are just trailing your tail as eye candy/cannon fodder.

Hi. Can you please attach a track showing the issue? When you observe the issue, exit the mission then hit the "Save track" button.

I can, but why? You have the mission yourself and can easily reproduce it it.  Try telling your wingman to engage bandits in the "furball" missions and see what happens.

I won't be able to try it myself, because I don't own any WWII modules.

 

Attaching a track saves a lot of time for testers. Here's an example of debugging through the use of a track. I wouldn't have been able to reproduce this bug without the track, because the user was not using the Viggen data panel the way I do.

Because it is mandatory. It saves time of both ED and the person reporting it.

Try opening the mission in the mission editor and checking the radio box for the player flights. Save the mission and fly.... should be fixed.

Hello from 2022, was trying to figure what I was doing wrong and stumbled upon this post.. OP hadn't provided a track, so here's mine
