AI bombers won't stop dumping bombs and engaging interceptors


Recommended Posts

Posted

I have a group of P-47's that are assigned as ground attack, and are assigned a bombing point on the ground using the "bombing" perform task from a waypoint. I want them to ignore any interceptor and push the bombing attack as the player flight is the escort and will attack the interceptors. For the life of me I can not get the bombing flight to stop jettisoning their bombs and engaging the interceptors. Here's what I have tried so far...

 

  • At way point zero set "Reaction to threat" to "No Reaction"
  • At all way points set "Reaction to threat" to "No Reaction"
  • Used a triggered action to set "Reaction to threat" to "No Reaction"
  • Set ROE to "Only designated"


The only way I could make them stop jettisoning bombs was an ROE "Weapons Hold" but then they don't do the bombing attack either. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

There is a "Restrict Jettison" option you can set, that should at least solve the problem with their dumping weapons. 

 

Not sure why they'd be attacking other aircraft in the first place. 

 

Well that keeps them from jettisoning the bombs, but now they just try to dogfight with bombs on. I have tried so many things to get this to work. Setting conditions to triggered flags, trying different aircraft, different maps etc... Always the same results. This is really maddening. From what I can tell from the manual it should be as simple as telling them to have no reaction to a threat, but it's just flat out not working.

This problem puzzles me.
Given flight of a group of four AI air units tasked with attacking ground targets, they do not attack.
I set a trigger zone and attacking objects on the map.
