Have searched for this, haven't found anything for it.

Usually (3/4 times), my wingman is spot on- flies a tight formation, breaks when called, launches when sicked on someone, etc.

Other times, he takes off and flies out to sea (or in some random direction), responds to but disobeys my orders, and finally runs out of fuel and ejects. I've never really noticed it in a 4-ship flight, only 2-ships.

Is there a fix to this? Is it a known issue? Do I have a bad install- I haven't found any other post on it at all.

Any words back would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Fritz

I don't know that I've seen that once. That's really odd.

I'd say something's off on your install, possibly, but I wouldn't even know what.

Fritz, any particular plane/mission/pony?
Is it reproducable within 8 retries or so?

I assume FC2 latest patch is in context.

So far I've only noticed it in Quick Start, and with the F-15. I barely occasionally play the A-10, but out of maybe 5-6 times I've played that, the A-10 did it once, too.

But with the F-15 it'a about 1/4 missions with a 2-ship. Last night it teamed up and out of 3 games it did it every time, so the occurence is random- some times it doesn't do it at all. I wonder... maybe I'll scratch the mission and start it all anew and then get back.

Pony? I know who you are, where you came from, and 13 different ways to kill you, over the internet, from that single utterance. Watch your step, Oden.

Will try after work, if I survive the day that is

5 tries Quick Start and AI behaves all the way.

And by "kill" I mean "ponify". And by "ponify" I mean absolutely nothing.

OK. I trashed the Quick Start I'd made from scratch and saved another mission I'd made from scratch. Only had time for 3 tries but so far he's hangin' in there and throwin' amraams downrange alongside me. Will keep testing as time spontaneously creates itself and gives me more hours in the day.

May have been some glitch in the mission's logic.
