FMBluecher Posted July 13, 2022 Posted July 13, 2022 What do we actually need to do to win this mission? I expended all of my ordnance, and my wingmen at least decided they were done attacking (I don't think any of them actually used all of their ordnance, but they said "rejoin" after being ordered to Engage Mission and Rejoin). We had destroyed all but one of the Silkworm launchers (although none of the command vehicles), and I got 0 points. I did waste one bomb and one missile (destroying missiles that my wingmen had already destroyed, and I couldn't tell), but that seems pretty darn close to the limit of what is achievable...
SorelRo Posted July 13, 2022 Posted July 13, 2022 In test and when this was launched, I was able to take the whole group out, using the ordinance and guns, there's no AA threats close to you anymore. The same, the wingman has to be asked politely multiple times to go and engage, sorry, that's ED's AI. I'll review it and see how they are acting in this latest update. It s quite a sight when you see 4 Harriers going for guns on those launchers. Cheers, 1
FMBluecher Posted July 13, 2022 Author Posted July 13, 2022 Ah, that (oddly) makes sense about the wingmen. BTW, when reviewing it, can you check the opening message about radio frequencies as well? I posted about it before, but the radio channels are not correct as listed. I figured them out by trial and error, but at least the AWACS and LHA channels are wrong.

FMBluecher Posted July 14, 2022 Author Posted July 14, 2022 No worries! Your prompt responses are much appreciated, and I'll give the mission another try soon and let you know how it goes (this time, giving my wingmen multiple attack orders!).
SorelRo Posted July 14, 2022 Posted July 14, 2022 I tweaked that mission, I'll try to send it to ED as soon as possible maybe it will make it on the next update. 1
FMBluecher Posted July 14, 2022 Author Posted July 14, 2022 Awesome, looking forward to it! Should I wait to replay until after the update, or did your tweaks not affect the AI behavior/victory conditions?
SorelRo Posted July 14, 2022 Posted July 14, 2022 Yeah, the tweaks should make the AI more eager to engage, also I fixed the radio confusion. If you want to continue, you can skip it and play it after the update
FMBluecher Posted July 14, 2022 Author Posted July 14, 2022 Cool--I'll probably skip for now, as I feel like I've done my part in beating the mission, and maybe revisit later. Thanks again! 1
