My Wingman drive me crazy..

[Lizzard]

Hello,

 

I have just one short question..is there a way to tell my Wingman they should attack Targets from a "save" Point?! I mean..every time I do a mission, and tell my Wingman to attack targets (Datalink, my target, Mission target) they keep running in, get too close and get in serious trouble. Even if I datalink them an Ingress Point..they fly to that Point..turn..run in..get most likely shot down:mad: Anyway to assign themk a "save" Sniper-Spot?!

 

Thanks Guys

(disclaimer: I haven't tested this by myself and have no idea if it really helps under 1.2.6 ... but seems worth a try? :o)

Thank you! I´ll give it a try:thumbup:

I would not be surprised if ED changed some behaviors, with the help of my guide.

Infortunately, i can't play DCS right now, i even still have 1.2.4 ;)

Hi Erforce, your Guide is really good! I enjoyed it pretty much, but my Wingmen seem to do what they want:music_whistling: So maybe ED changed some Things..I most likely assign my 2nd Wingman no tasks anymore..just 3 and 4. I just attack Targets myself until I run out of Vikhrs, then I jump in the Shark from my 2nd Wingman, and have another 12 Vikhrs. That way most Missions are easy to finish:)

How about telling them to attack just one target at a time (not the most efficient solution I know)?

[Lizzard]

No matter what I tell them...sometimes they do well, mostly they act stupid and get shot down. Deployment Campaign Mission 9 (the Gundelen Mission), I told my Wingman to attack Datalink Targets...he just solved that Mission nearly alone and killed everything. In Mission 10 where you have to take back the FARP...no matter what orders I have for him he refuses to attack, does nothing and rejoins immediatly, or he gets way to close and get`s hammered by the MANPADS..damn Noob

Thought this kind of behavior was resolved...

I don't get all the "random mind" AI code though.

As for jumping yourself from shark to shark, this feature is kinda new, i never really tested it on the field, like the cheated repair command ;)

 

I'll give another try soon enough.

 

Edit :

Well, it seems my guide stills works well at first glance.
