Peeping Tom Posted May 14, 2010 Posted May 14, 2010 Hi, I've noticed a few times since I patched FC2 some odd behaviour, to say the least, from my wingman. In the latest one, after I (supposedly) hit a bird on take off and I am about to land ASAP my wingman flies into my wing, and lands with bullet holes (!) all over... (This is the second time it occurs, in the first one after a hard right turn he flew right through me, leaving the both of us with some flyable damages.) Once my plane is repaired I take off as he went to the parking area. Rather than going back to the runway he decides to take off from there and onto the grass...and crashes. (See track bellow) I must say that I already found the wingman useless at best in FC2-BC but now he is getting rather annoying... I'm sorry that my very first post :blush: is to report a bug but here we are. I must add that I find FC2 a great sim that I enjoy a lot. (Then again, dynamic campaigns would have given it a much longer fun-life expectancy, wouldn'it??) Cheers, PeepPeep's Wingman Bug.trk
Vekkinho Posted May 15, 2010 Posted May 15, 2010 (edited) I must say that I already found the wingman useless at best in FC2-BC but now he is getting rather annoying... What is FC2-BC? Is there FC2 A.D. too? OK Jokes aside! Peep, first of all welcome to forums! I hope your other posts will be less critical of FC and it's improvements over FC1.1 will surely encourage you and make you more fond of it. However, AI is AI and will always be binary dumb if I may say it, it's either black or white with these guys! Edited May 15, 2010 by Vekkinho [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

Yes, FC2-BC = FC2-Before Catch ! :smilewink: I am very fond of this game Vek, make no mistake. I just think it could be near perfect with a couple of improvements. Coming in DCS:A-10 ??... Back to this AI issue anyway. I really think it's a bug. I had noticed a problem when ordering my wingman to "Open Formation", he then would crash in the ground in a low altitude flight. To verify that I just created a simple, low altitude mission in a valley. And as expected, after I order him to OF...he crashes right into the mountain. :doh: See track bellow (crash happens around 8mins into the flight). I must precise that I exclusively fly the A10 and I don't know if it happens with other birds. I didn't notice this before the patch but I can't be sure. After I saw this a couple of times I un-installed the whole game, re-installed, re-patched. Same problem so I don't think it comes from a bad install. PeepWingman Open Formation Bug.trk
RvEYoda Posted May 15, 2010 Posted May 15, 2010 I dont know, I've had similar issues in both Fc2 unpatched and patched, but also FC 1.12. If you fly close formation with AI wingman and just roll at high speed, he will crash into you and you explode. Also if you take off with a certain speed he crashes into you. S = SPARSE(m,n) abbreviates SPARSE([],[],[],m,n,0). This generates the ultimate sparse matrix, an m-by-n all zero matrix. - Matlab help on 'sparse'
