Sonoda Umi Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 As the document saying, I climbed to angels 25 and joined up with Hammer 1-1, but my lead didn't call for “saddled”. How can I handle this issue? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reflected Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 (edited) You gotta be close enough. (As you learned in Misssion 2, breakup and rdv) He won’t call anything just set course. I just replayed the mission a few days ago, it works. Mind you, the AI chose to fly an almost 360 degree turn before settling on course, but that's just the AI...

Can you share a video to demonstrate how to make this happen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reflected Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 (edited) You just have to be formed up on him. Within 1000 feet to be exact. No radio calls will happen. Are you sure it's Paco you formed up on? 25k over mother? Here's an older recording: Edited February 6, 2023 by Reflected 1 Facebook Instagram YouTube Discord Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should have another try that keep more closer to my lead, and... stay closer longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reflected Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 If it still doesn't work, 2 things may cause it: a) you have mods installed. In this case delete them. b) lately DCS has been acting up in a way that stop flags are ignored for some users, sometimes and not for others, other times. I can't fix this from within the editor.

Sonoda Umi Posted February 6, 2023 Author Share Posted February 6, 2023 (edited) I was trying to closer and stay longer as possible, but still nothing more happend. I don't know the reason why it always circling? Should this can be added a option to press "space" to call for join up? And one more problem: I watched the video again, I found that I have radio talks missing, such as CAT launch in this video, the slick says "here we go", "gears up" and chig says "airborne, good engines". Further more, the mission directions on right top of screen are missing as well for me. It seems that the mission has some bugs needed to be done.

Sonoda Umi Posted February 6, 2023 Author Share Posted February 6, 2023 Update: First, it's my fault, I overlooked the tips "do not use radio menu to salute" and I used it to CAT launch, so the problems above occurred. Last time, I used "shift+U" to salute, and the mission went on. Nonetheless, there was a new quesion: when my lead and me completed the Aerial Refueling, the radio called RTB, but my lead still stayed with the tanker and I didn't know the reason. As result, I returned to my carrier sololy and complete this mission. I can go to the Mission 13 after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reflected Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 (edited) Thanks for letting me know. I’ll check the mission because the salute shouldn’t be a requirement for the trigger to fire as I’m sure many players ignore the briefing. as for the tanker, it’s the same DCS AI bug as this one, @[ED]Obi is aware and the team is working on a fix: Edited February 6, 2023 by Reflected Facebook Instagram YouTube Discord Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reflected Posted February 7, 2023 Share Posted February 7, 2023 (edited) Actually I checked and the only condition is to be within that zone, and above 7000 meters. It has nothing to do with the salute. If it doesn't work, then it's a core DCS AI bug, ignoring the stop flag. Can you please send a track of it not working so I can forward to ED? null Edited February 7, 2023 by Reflected Facebook Instagram YouTube Discord Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is that completed AAR the lead didn't return to ship. LastMissionTrack.trk Edited February 7, 2023 by Sonoda Umi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kega76 Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 (edited) Hi, just to join in on this. Same issue with the rejoin. Have been flying close formation for a very long time, and nothing. Restarted the mission two times, no luck. Then I picked up the SHIFT-U to launch from the carrier. All worked and mission complete. Love it! This brings the campaign experience to new levels.

Reflected Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 Although I still can't reproduce it, I implemented a workaround for the next update. If it's indeed what I think it is, that is, DCS is now not capable of executing several tasks at the same time due to some core-bug, it will be less likely to break. Hopefully. 1 Facebook Instagram YouTube Discord Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eLgargantuan Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 Just saw this thread after posting about this problem on another. I am also hitting this issue, I use a VAICOM "Salute" command which likely uses the Radio Comm "Salute" to shoot. I'm also missing the comms on gear up,etc. I'll try it again later using Shift+U....
