It's not a new bug - you can prevent that by giving him "Hold here" command somewhere before landing.

Edit: Nah, it won't work here.

You can’t, each jet is set up as a different group in the editor

i will submit a bug and a track, fi there is one already open let me know and i will append it ... i don't suppose there is any practical workaround, i notice in S&A they break off rather than try and land, would something like that work here, likely quite a bit of work for something that isn't your fault ...

it’s the same trigger. But sometimes things work, sometimes they don’t. That’s the new MT engine.

What seems to work is to order the kiss off as soon as it comes up ...

Placebo. It’s a roll of the dice. Or…Maybe then the game is still less busy rendering nellis because you’re a few miles out?

the latter was my assumption... i will give it another couple of runs

ok when i kiss him off early ASAP he always goes ... to be fair i haven't tried kissing him off late ... so it could still be placebo, on my first run through i kissed him off just as i was going into my break ... so i would have been right over the middle of Nellis ..
