Aircraft intercepting/escorting aircraft not in their faction


Recommended Posts

The mission setup is as follows:

Red - Russia

Blue - Georgia

Neutral - US

The player is a US UH60 flying from a carrier to do some sort of ferry mission to a Georgian airbase. En route some Russian SU27s decide to harass the helicopter by doing flybys. The carrier launches F18s to intercept and escort the SU27s away.

 

Is there a way to have the F18s escort the SU27s if they are in a different faction? I noticed that you can use the "follow" advanced waypoint command but the units need to be in the same faction. Is there some way to "follow" units from another faction or do I need to make the F18s be on the Red team? Either way they won't engage US because US is neutral so I'm not worried about the helicopter being shot down.

 

On a side note, is there a "move to position of unit" type waypoint for when the SU27s buzz the player? So far I've done it by fiddling the waypoints to where I expect the player to be at that time.

For your first question, see here:

 

Only got around to testing this today but it worked like a charm. Thanks.
