Mission 4, collided going into echelon left.

It appeared as though one of the others in the formation collided with me as we were about to enter the break as they were entering echelon left formation, though the other three seemed undamaged following the collision. I really don't think I was out of position, just posting in case anyone else encounters this issue.

I just don't fly close to AI if I expect it to do any maneuvers, they are too unpredictable. It's a core AI issue, you can tell them where to go but they will do it their way, which often means breaking at full afterburner to change course by 10 degrees or sometimes just teleporting around.

I got collided with once in the break in Mig Killers, but that was my fault tbh, I was on the wrong side of lead.

It happens. ED really needs to work on the AI's collision avoidance. There's nothing I can do in the mission editor to prevent it, but if you're in position it's less likely to to happen.

Okay, played through again and everything was fine. Looks like standard AI weirdness. I just wasn't sure until I actually saw them do the maneuver. Thankfully, it's a fun mission.
