reported AAR in mission 10 breaks the mission

[IceyJones]

hi

enjoying the campaign so far and im now in mission 10. completed it pretty good and on the way home i picked the AAR option to take a sip.

i do as requested, use the standard radio menu, take a few pounds, then i abort and call AAR complete via the on screen option.

my wingman then exits the area instead of taking a sip himself, even he was the reason i picked AAR in the first place, as he reported bingo fuel before.

he even flew all the way back to jirah and beyond XD

 

mission did not proceed. no radio comms anymore....., and even i landed at the AB again and entered my hangar, nothing happened.

btw @BIGNEWY can you please move this into "Bugs&Problems"?

i have not seen that there is an extra folder

same with my 2nd report

thx

Hi @IceyJones
Selecting abort from the radio menu when done refueling has probably caused this issue. It seems to break the triggers.
Please try it again and just use the on screen instruction to say you are done refueling. This should stop this from happening.

will try next time i try the mission. atm i fight mission 11

but then this should be noted in the mission notes maybe. because the initial order is, to use the radio comms to get to refuel, so its a bit confusing that you must not use it to end it when you have enough fuel

Yes, we will improve/fix that as soon as possible

I'll add this to the notes. There are some general issues with the AAR and AI behaviour, hope this gets fixed soon.

@IceyJones Haven't flown this mission so I can't comment on how it's setup. Usually, having your wingman do AAR is easy. Request rejoin, join up. Choose who goes first. For yourself, "ready pre contact" For him, "go to tanker".
Cheers!

Yeah, I tend to over-complicate stuff

[baltic_dragon]

We identified the core bug causing this and found a workaround. Trying to implement it now.

[IceyJones]

AI seems very wonky in this patch anyway. I hope your workaround is successful!

AI flies like idiots when approaching waypoints for example. shallow decent to then dive 60° down to hit the WP, etc.

erratic turns, slowing down, then full ABing again.......

but thats not your cup of tea ofc.....it only makes your work harder.

ED really needs to work on AI behavior

[baltic_dragon]

Perhaps it is part of the Dynamic Campaign AI upgrade... and things will get better eventually. I certainly hope so!
