KA-50- AI vs Player

[26-J39]

Hi all..

 

I was recently tinkering in mission editor. I created 3 x Ka-50's starting at altitudes ranging from 6000-6600meters.... The fourth KA-50 was me (player) starting at 6600 meters altitude.

Upon entering the mission my turbines immediately stall,to be expected without any anti-ice features switched on (ED.. hint.. nudge.. i did see the INU heater on tho:P)

 

All the AI controlled KA's had no problem's with there turbines and safely desended... Hmmm ???

I saw some Hind making an emergency landing at ca. 150 Km/h on the open area.... touchdown and rolling and rolling and rolling and crossing a river and rolling and rolling till it stops.

hehe ... aquatic hind .. Yeah there are some problems with the AI.

AI aircraft do nut run the same level of detail simulation as your own. Why? Imagine needing four of your PC's just because your flight is a 4-ship formation.

I wouldn't expect the ai to run/process the same level of code as the players flight model but some basic parameters like- altitude = 6600meters = engine stall... surely not all that complex.. ;)

Exactly what said EtherealN, it is too big powercost to simulate all AI behaviours and physic simulations whose are related to real players. At least not today.

 

EDIT:

 

Yes I agree, this shouldn't be comnplex to add.

I do understand there is always a compromise in terms of "player detail" vs "external world" detail..

Just thought i'd post what i found just in case it was a simple fix.. :)
