Rest of Flight Won't Bomb Targets...

[H60MTI]

I have a mission here and no matter what option or command I have in the editor, they refuse to do anything. They just follow me and not bomb the target. There a certain command I need to give them to do that?

I have largely given up on wingmen, except for air escort and CAS. I now use them as a separate flight that follows me and executes their own mission instructions. Also they are extremely sensitive to fuel, and if below a 'safe' threshold, won't make a bomb run. I now just give the ai unlimited fuel.

They launch separately and then rejoin when I reach WP 1, then when I enter the target zone, it triggers a flag and releases them to go to their next WP and make the attack runs per their waypoints.

Not going to lie, totally forgot about this mission Lol Did some tweaking to the AI and still not right. I even have them as a completely separate flight and they still suck. I have 4 Hornets, each with 8 GBU-32's. I have a bunch of targets set as bombing, blah, blah, blah....They bomb the targets but each pass is one bomb at a time. Takes forever for a bombing run. I've seen the B1 just dump JDAMS on a target but for some reason these ai Hornets can't. One pass, one bomb at a time total until that plane runs out of bombs. Need a JDAM Carpet Bombing option.

Oh, and no all 4 of them on that flight are dead somehow....I can't describe it. It looked like the circus was in town. They were going all over the place. Couldn't hold altitude for anything. They somehow balled up their aircraft. No words....
