fixed internally Speed and Angels mission 08a bug after patch

[tezak]

The AI isn´t taxing after all the checks for taxing in the beginning of the mission, also an F16 is constantly exploding behind the F14s on the tarmac.

On Mission 8, since the patch, the startup goes as normal until it is time for Paco to taxi. The flight stays still and remains on the flight line.

Damn dcs ai…I’m away from my pc, will check when I’m back next week. Thanks for the report!

is it broken in ST too? Or only MT?

Broken in both MT and ST.

Does Paco not even start up? Does the blocking soldier move away? 

[kb1701]

The blocking soldier did not move away, I didn't look to see if his engines were started, I tried taking off anyway, at first, it appeared to work as Chig went through the checklist and the flight got takeoff clearance, however the other triggers after were not working. In fact the AI kept switching the waypoint back to Nellis after I hit the first waypoint. I had Jester select Junno and Student Gap but the fence in checklist and g warm never played, I had to quit before I reached Student Gap but I will try again later. The other three jets remained on the flight line throughout.

If the blocking soldier doesn’t move then it’s all broken, hard to work around. Looks like the patch introduced new ground AI bugs.

I think the truck is blocking the F16’s at the runway 03R ! And a truck is driving through a wall at the back of the f14’ s

Thanks, that would make sense. Can’t trust the damn ground AI to drive from A to B…

I’ll implement a workaround for the next update.

OK that was an easy fix. I'll submit it for the next update. 'til then, here's a workaround:

- open the mission in the editor, and delete the truck and the soldier at the EOR pad next to the 4 Vipers.

In my case "save" and "save as" are deactivated. Can you distribute the modified file?

Don't save, just delete the unit and hit 'fly'.

[Chacal_IX]

Yes, but in this case, the mission is not validated in the campaign.

You can still skip it later on, it doesn't matter. You'll still get your grades.
