Enemy Bombing AI - Strange Behavior - Is it me?

[Mistermann]

I am trying to get DCS AI to engage in a carpet bombing run. Unfortunately I am getting some odd behavior and don't know if its a "me" issue, or another example of finicky ED AI. Can anyone assist in helping me sort this behavior out?

Instead of a wall of text, here's a video.  

Thanks for assisting me.

I've seen that happen alot If I spawn too near the IP or come in at an angle too extreme for it to get stabilized for a good run.  

It basically ran out of time to get within proper constraints for the drop before it reached the drop point.  It is circling around to get lined up better for another run.

 

Just as a test, try increasing the initial leg before the drop wp further out and make sure there is sufficient distance between the drop WP and the actual target triangle.  Like at least 10 nm I think.

Thanks CptTrips

I'll see what I can do by extending the IP run.  Thanks for the quick response.

Thanks!  That was indeed the problem - distance between the IP and the drop point.  I mistakenly thought it was the distance between WP 1 and 2.  But its actually the distance between WP 2 and the bombing triangle in the ME.

Most appreciated!

You have something to say to me?
