Biga42 Posted July 29, 2023 Posted July 29, 2023 No matter what I do I am receiving from JTAC no clearance to shoot the T-55, I circulating the target and ask clearance from 280, 270, 260, 250,...whatever...get no clearance.....very frustating...what I am doing wrong? where do i have to ask permission from?
Papa1 Posted July 30, 2023 Posted July 30, 2023 I’m on mission 7 of this campaign and had those troubles a couple of times as well. What I was doing wrong was asking for clearance before I reached the IP position. After I made sure that I was at the correct position before pressing space bar to get clearance all has worked well for me. Hope this may help a bit, good luck, Im really enjoying the campaign.
ChillNG Posted July 30, 2023 Posted July 30, 2023 Yes Papa1 is correct, you must be at the IP and on the correct heading (there is a fair bit of tolereance allowed) to be cleared hot.

I was just playing this mission last night and Spoiler had an engine failure when returning home. It happened when I was maybe 5-10 minutes out from landing. Everything went perfectly on the mission and I took no hits or fire. I have been flying the Hog for a long time and have never had an engine randomly quit on me. It left me scratching my head after I landed on one engine. Engine air restart procedures did not work. I was wondering if this was a trigger in the mission. Otherwise I don't know why the engine failed. Had plenty of fuel and was just descending out of Angels 15ish when it quit on me around Angels 8 or 10.

Ooh, I didn't even realize there was a setting for that, but no. I checked and it is not selected. Oh well.
