Robsterios Posted November 29, 2021 Posted November 29, 2021 Hi.. just wondering if someone can offer some advice.. With regards to countermeasures, in particular flares. I've looked through all tutorials and training but still have issues deploying more than one set. I realize that one must switch to the next set via the operator control switch which I have mapped to my hotas button but depending on the mission, I either don't need to switch, in other words, the flares deploy in their designated sequence and when needing to deploy again, they do so without switching to another station, or in several other missions, I can only deploy the one set and no matter what what station their switched to, no countermeasures deploy and I simply get shot out of the sky with SAMs's...not sure what I'm doing wrong here..
AeriaGloria Posted November 29, 2021 Posted November 29, 2021 Originally Petrovich didn’t switch sets but now it does so you never have to worry about it. so I really don’t know what could cause that, with 192 countermeasures it takes alot to run out. Are you going into the front seat in SP and changing the set yourself then going back to pilot seat? If so that probably messes it up and might get in the way of Petro doing it automatically Black Shark Den Squadron Member: We are open to new recruits, click here to check us out or apply to join! https://blacksharkden.com

Are you talking about flares only or mix of flares/chaff? If former, you have to do nothing, Petrovich will fire them as you command it. If you have mix, you need to go to AI menu and select what type you want. After that, Petrovich will keep deploying that type until exhausted.
