d_h_g Posted August 11, 2012 Posted August 11, 2012 I have flown a number of missions now against static targets (e.g command bunkers, armament silos) and I have not been able to get my wingman to bomb these targets. Result, I end up loading my aircraft with lots of 2000lb bombs and having to do all the work myself. Is there any command that gets the wingman to attack fixed targets? The only command I can find is to attack 'ground targets' but wingman acknowledgement is to attack 'targets of opportunity', which seems to be all types of target except fixed installations (ie mission objectives)! Is this a quirk of the game or are there steps/commands that I am not using?
BigfootMSR Posted August 11, 2012 Posted August 11, 2012 Well, the first thing I would do is make sure that the wing-man is actually equipped to target and destroy said static structures. ie, they wont attack a bunker with a maverick. or GBU 12. Aside from this, I would actually have to play with the commands. I have not tried this myself.
