Aircraft and SAMs seem to have no situational awareness

[Gunfreak]

I made a mission on the CWG map a large battle, with lots of aircraft and SAMs

The aircraft armed with HARMS never engage the SAMS, the SAMS don't fire at the aircraft flying straight over head. 

The air to air aircraft on both sides go into close range, and don't use their medium range missiles at their range.

It seems the AI aircraft and SAMs can't see through clouds even with radars or HARMS, as soon as I changed from overcast to more open clouds both SAMs and aircraft started to engade

Can you post the mission file?
I can't open the track in the editor to find out what's wrong.

Nevermind. I don't own the map in question.

Seems odd because DCS clouds has not been an obstacle for many AI routines.

Possible issues:

• Wrong setup for SAMs at mission startup can delay radar deployment, making both sides not attack each other for obvious reasons.
• Wrong setup for aircraft making them not activating their radars such as 'Nothing' tasking or else. 'CAP' by default makes the AI seek for targets but you need to check their active tasking at their starting point and next waypoints.

As I said. The only change i did was change the cloud settings.

When I had overcast. The SAMs only fired when I flew below the cloud cover and then only at me and my wingman. 

When I removed the clouds cover. The SAMs started to spew out missiles at aircraft, HARMS and JSOWS. 

Same with the aircraft, as soon as I removed the clouds the HARMS flew away and I also saw JSOW impacts.
