Mission Watching the Devildog broken: convoy does not move


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello

I have tried the long version of this mission a couple of times and I can't get it to work. The convoy is stopped in the road and does not move. I never get any tasking after the "welcome" message that tells you to locate the convoy and orbit.

Thanks

did you fly to the FIXED POINT? the convoy won't start until you go to the fixed point (not WP1)
Yes, at FP Jester tells you to fly to WP1. And there to orbit. They never move.

Just tried the instant action version of the mission and I am having the same issue with it.

I can't confirm. Just tested IA F-14B Watching the Devildog and it works fine. I suggest to remove the mods and try again.

What am I doing wrong?

Idk, they are clearly stopped there. Maybe dcs.log can say something.

btw: After the message to hold the orbit over the valley, the briefing info to orbit between WP1&2 no longer applies.

you ever figure it out? I'm having the same problem; fly to FP, then WP1, then the convoy just sits there. Tried a few times, the enemy spawned randomly once when i was just flying around aimlessly and went way out of the area and back.

Has it ever moved? A year or two ago I played through the mission and completed all the tasks, but the convey never actually moved during the mission.

Over a year later and new computer, I figured to try it again. The mission is still bugged: as always, the convoy never moves and now on top of that I get this popup from time to time.

It would be nice if this mission got fixed...

nullThanks

OK, I have just fixed the mission and tested it all fine up to the landing. Please test - it's the IA F-14B for now but I think both A and full mission versions can be fixed quickly same way.

Hello draconus. That fixed the script error popup, unfortunately the convoy still does not move. I am attaching the track and dcs.log. All mods, scripts, keeboards and liveries were removed and shaders deleted.

Thank you for your feedback. It seems like the convoy just stops randomly at the start of the mission. If you try to restart the mission it should work 2nd or 3rd time*. It is not even scripts related - just simple AI group following the road to WP1.

*You can quickly check them by going to free camera view Lctrl+F11, Lshift+W to find them in the valley - if they are stopped, they are there to stay, restart.

I'll try to reconfigure the convoy to see if it makes any difference.

You can try this one - it runs fine with the convoy every time. Not tested full mission though and the convoy is cut down to just 7 HUMVEEs.

I have tried three times the last version and all of them the convoy moved, awesome! If you want to fix the full mission I will definitely try it.

Thanks again for testing. Got the single mission working but I have not tested whole mission, just up to the point when action starts - should be fine after that.
