Deck Crew AI directing me on to blocked cat.

I thought it was me doing something wrong. Turns out it the new deck crew AI is quite literally blind and dumb. It is directing me onto blocked catapult. When I advance onto available cat, deck crew AI goes dumb and stupid, and just shuts down. It waits for me to taxi onto blocked cat. Where it would launch me through the parked aircraft.

There's no such thing as blocked cat in SC. You can only place static aircraft wisely so aircraft don't spawn in spots leading to that particular cat. If it's built-in mission, report in the module's bug & problem subforum.

This also happens in instant action and ED made missions.  Commonly directed to cat 1 full of parked Hornets.  Also just occurred now in bold cheeta mission 3.

Please fix this.

This is something that has to be fixed in a mission, and it's fixed by tediously blocking parking spots to make you spawn in a place where you'd get directed to an unblocked cat. Each parking spot only has a single cat to which the directors will send aircraft. If that happens to be blocked, they don't care.

They changed something recently and a lot of already working missions no longer function properly. Ex.
