Now I have failed this mission twice. I get close to the Bandar el Lengeh, shoot down the four Migs, but when I try to get the image after that, I get a message: "you can't have been within 20 clicks, try again", and when I try again, I get a failed mission screen. This last time I was DEFINITELY within 20 clicks. Am I doing something wrong? Or is it a bug? Appreciate any help!

Hi, your instructions from Strike is to get in there get your images and get out of there. Your ROE is not to engage the Migs unless fired on.

You should have plenty of time to get in there and get out without engaging the Migs.  Try next time doing just that. You have to be within 20 miles of the harbour to take the photo. 
All should be fine then.

Set the harbour as target so you get distance read out.

Not at my rig at the moment but will check your Tacview out then.

Thanks hope this helps.

Ah, yes, that helped. It would be even better if the fail message would be something along the lines "you broke the ROE" and not "you are not within range".

Thank you for replying! Great campaign so far!

Hi

Spoiler

The idea was if you were too late and took them on it would be suicide. Trouble is with AI updates they became not too aggressive. I have made them much more aggressive now and this  will be in the next update so survivability should be very difficult in the future. Also as you flew directly towards them they hadn't hit the attack trigger so you caught them cruising. I have changed that now so they sense you are flying at them and they go into attack mode much earlier. That's as long as the next ED AI update doesn't turn them into pussy cats again 🙂  Hopefully this will work out. The trouble with giving a fail for breaking the ROE  is that if very slow you would have to engage as they would attack you and so you wouldn't have broken the ROE. I just need to ensure if you are engaged you definitely die.  Could guarantee a fail by taking the player out by script but didn't want to do that, wanted them to be overwhelmed. May introduce extra bandits if my adjustment does not work out.

I think my problem was that I tried to get within 20 clicks, interpreted as 20 km, which is approx 10 NM. I see now, within 20 NM is sufficient...

The only bug I experienced in mission 4 was the Fulcrums didn't bug out,  in fact they kept approaching until they attacked me over Fujairah airspace and they didn't stop.

Hi

How long ago was that, was it before the last update as I corrected some of their actions. Are you running any mods at all or are you using voice attack. It is a fact mods are impacting AI scripting. All DLC campaigns are written without any mods. There are also current bugs where the AI are ignoring instructions but not all the time and not for all players. If you can get a Tacview of the flight that is really useful. 
I will check this end but am finding I cannot recreate some of these AI issues.
Thanks.

17 hours ago,  but It's fine dude,  i don't wanna make you stress About it.   I am running the AMPCD yellow font mod.  It was also after I had 'Taken Control' while watching a track replay so there's that too

If you get a problem with a clean run through without mods let me know. Always appreciate a heads up. A Tacview file is always helpful too. Hope you enjoy the campaign 👍

Somewhat related, the initial BRAA for the Fulcrums is "Bulls 0-8-0" when I believe it should be "Bulls 0-0-8".

EDIT: yes you were correct. It has now been corrected and will be in next update. 👍
