Sam is not working

[Darkreaver1980]

Hi there,

 

I tested all Sam´s in the editor, so far everything is working except the the ship Sam´s. Only ship that fires Sam´s allmost everytime is thet Rezky one.

 

Of course i placed all SAM with the radar in the same group. I am 100% sure that the SAM-10 and Pyotr is not working right. Sometimes the Pyotr is firing 2-3 times and than never again.

 

i noticed that SA-10 only works if you place down the CP, all 3 types(!) of the aviable SA-10 radar + launchers, if you place only one of the radartypes the sam will never engage anything. Of course the CP, launcher and radar are all in the same group.

 

Around 80% of all times i can place the Pyotr in the mission editor, place myself next to it in the air and fly around in circles without the cruiser doing anything.

 

Ships have theyre own radar right? im running a multiplayer mission on "Operation Dragonclaw" where i have several ships, most of em never fire a single shot (theyre all frigates, cruisers). For example, i have a Rezky and a Pyotr next to each other in the same group and only the Rezky fires its sam, the Pyotr does absoluty nothing, beside providing a good practising target.

If you've put them in the same group, it's quite possible that the Kirov (your "Pyotr") is letting the Krivak (your "Rezky") handle air targets that it can engage, and saving its own missiles. Kirovs work just fine, and will spam SA-10s on anything they can get their hands on, at least if they are in a separate group. Maybe stop putting them in groups with other ships?

Well, people on my server complained because once the destroyer was gone, the cruiser was a sitting duck and did absolut nothing. I also tryd placing down the cruiser alone in the editor, set my spawn point next to it and flyed in circles....most of the time, he shooted 2-3 times at start of the mission and than never again.

 

This also seems to be the case with all other ships except the Rezky
