tmansteve Posted December 3, 2022 Posted December 3, 2022 Not sure if I am doing something wrong but I recently bought the Assets Pack and place various types of Flak guns in different positions covering bombers waypoints. I tried them without the KDO first and as soon as the planes were detected, they sprang into action but did not fire. Tried Fire At Point and they fired. Then tried them with KDOs and all they did was rise up and follow them not firing once. I then tried Weapon Free, Min Altitude etc and still with no firing. Any help would be great. I have watched loads of videos and I seem to be OK. Should there be a minimum starting altitude for the planes so that the Flak will react?
razo+r Posted December 3, 2022 Posted December 3, 2022 Normally, all you need to do is have a KDO unit in the group and an enemy that's flying not too close and they will shoot.
tmansteve Posted December 4, 2022 Author Posted December 4, 2022 (edited) I have done everything you have said and much more but I will try again, but dont hold up much hope. Watching the big bombers fly over and not a peep from the guns is bizarre. Just a thought, what should be the minimum height for the planes? Maybe they need to be higher than 7000ft. I will raise the height and see what happens. Edited December 4, 2022 by tmansteve
razo+r Posted December 4, 2022 Posted December 4, 2022 Are your flak guns and KDO all in the same group? Also if nothing else works attach your mission here.
tmansteve Posted December 4, 2022 Author Posted December 4, 2022 The flak guns are but I think the kdo was placed after. I will look into that this afternoon and get back with results. It has to be something silly as my missions are quite advanced with a lot going on with scripts etc. Thanks for that razor+r

tmansteve Posted December 4, 2022 Author Posted December 4, 2022 An update. Got it working at last. You were right about making them all one group razor+r, many thanks. Elphaba, thank you for the video link but I have seen that one. Those barrages I have created but the older flak guns needed a kdo.
SUNTSAG Posted December 4, 2022 Posted December 4, 2022 Why not try using the templates that have been provided in the mission editor. They also have a correct historical layout. It takes the guess work out of placing units. Just a thought. Callsign: NAKED My YouTube Channel [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
tmansteve Posted December 5, 2022 Author Posted December 5, 2022 Thanks for the info Suntsag. Will look into that. You forget there are so many different ways to approach mission building. Cheers
