M2: wrong trigger fires and causes mission to fail (spoilers, obv)


Recommended Posts

Posted

In mission 2, the moment the migs fire at me the "you have opened fire without authorization" trigger happens (mistakenly) at the same time and the mission is failed immediately. *They* shoot first and I get blamed ? So unfair... 😊

Version : current openbeta (2.7.8.16140)

Expected behavior : only the "we have been engaged" trigger fires, not the "mission failed" one. Then hopefully I dodge the missiles and start bringing Freedom to the communist hordes yada yada...

Track is too big to post here but maybe it's not required ? I have it around anyways if needed. As you can see, i'm not even in offensive mode and I still have all my missiles.  🙂

Hi Buzz. Is it possible you told your wingman to engage the bandits?

A .TRK (or .ACMI would be even better) would be helpful for debugging.

 

There you go ! Here's a screen of the event list and the full acmi is attached. As you see, I did not initiate combat nor asked my wingman to engage. I also have the .trk but it's 12MB so can't attach it there.

I wish I could open the .miz and debug it myself but ... 🤷‍♂️ 

 

Cheers, Buzz

Alright! I believe I have discovered the issue. As a temporary workaround, reduce your speed or increase your aspect as you approach the bandit to deny him a shot until he is inside of 30 nautical miles.

I'll make the necessary adjustments to the original triggers to prevent this issue from occuring in the future, thanks for the report!

All right, I'll try "pre-notching" 😉 until 30nm. I need to check on the tacview how far I was when he shot, I don't know how much distance I need to gain. I'll give it a shot (pun intended) and tell you if it works.  

Thanks ! Buzz.

Yep, that works (distance when migs engage 23.69nm). Workaround confirmed. Thanks ! 

(Now I need to not die like an idiot to those missiles but at least I don't have the mission failed trigger. 🙂 )
