Tasking AI (wingman or other) to perform more than one task.

[buceador]

In the ME I have set the mission to SEAD at waypoint 1. At waypoint 2 using ADVANCED WAYPOINT ACTIONS I have set PERFORM TASK - ATTACK MAP OBJECT.  The aircraft have the appropriate ordnance for both tasks.  SEAD is performed correctly the second task is ignored.

It is quite possible that this is beyond the scope of AI in ME.

Difficult to say without a visual example, although AI has limitations & one has to be precise in the AI/ME commands. If it helps, I did a video on how I set up a CAS and SEAD/DEAD mission. Please see link

Here is a demo .trk to demonstrate what I mean - not only do they NOT do task 2 but the also deviate greatly from the stated waypoints!

I believe default tasks like SEAD override others. Don't use them unless absolutely necessary. Try Search Then Engage or similar instead and see if this works better.

You might also want to create an end condition for the STE task so that it doesn't top the AI queue list indefinitely.

I can't look at your mission right now, so apologies if what I said does not apply.

Thank you! Exactly that.  In fact I had to specify the SAM unit(s) to attack rather than the group and use CAS rather than SEAD then they successfully hit the second target with bombs, Great to know it is possible.
