Mission 13 - Alert 5 (bis) - No bandits

[dggoofy]

Hi,

Just flew the mission 13. Was very relax indeed. I followed the waypoints 1, then 2 to bulleyes. Overlord said "Weapons hot. 180 degrees for 15...", which is very closed, but, I thing the bandits were very scared. In fact I saw no body. Just RTB to get a 100 points score.

 

Cheers

I think AI behavior changed again when they are around SAM's for the billionth time in a year. I'll test it out. Now depending on the way you fly your CAP you may have missed that interception. If you are not interrogating the AWACS with your F7 key an get a bit of SA it's quite easy to miss that interception. Now, if you think about it in reality not all the intercepts will be perfect and not all the time you will make contact with the enemy, since your goal is to live and fight another day..... Good job!

I don't think that's it. I've also experienced this, and I think the enemies just don't spawn in this mission. They don't appear as objects in the debrief score card, and this mission passes without doing anything. I've look for them quite well, and asked AWACS - it was clear.

I'll test the mission and let you know, thanks for bringing it up.

I tested this mission, you have to be on course between WP 1 and WP 2 and the enemy activates properly, there's a big gaggle of SU-24's and SU-17's, the mission score is based on how many bombs are landed on your troops, so scaring them away is how it should be judged.

I must have missed a trigger somewhere then, maybe WP1?

Just make sure you follow the right track between WP1 and WP2
