Copy & Paste groups with AI task can be problematic. (Warning)


Recommended Posts

Just a warning to mission makers.

 

If you copy and paste groups with AI tasks the tasks can throw up odd results, i.e not work.

 

The example i came across were Arty groups with AI task > Fire at Point.

 

I had a group comprising of 3 arty units.. the copied groups gave odd results. There would either not fire at all or 2 of the 3 units in a group would fire. I ran the scenario several times. When i deleted the AI tasks and reset them up with the same 'fire at point' AI task they worked correctly.

Do you have a track? I tried to replicate the issue but it looks like everything is being written into the mission file correctly and in my playthrough all of the groups fired as they should.

The right man in the wrong place makes all the difference in the world.

Sorry no track. Didn't think of it.. was too busy trying to work out wft was going on.

 

I tried to replicate it again but failed.

 

But something went wrong with the copied groups behaviour previously. There is no way i know of of making 2 out of 3 Akatsia units fire in a group. (All 3 units where very close to each other & well within range). To fix the issue all i did was delete the AI task and add it again.

 

Just gonna have to keep a eye on this.. maybe there was something else influencing the error.
