Bomber AI don't shoot?
« on: November 23, 2013, 02:18:29 PM »
I was setting up a mission to practice attacking bombers and defending against attacking fighters depending on which side you choose.  Problem is the bomber AI don't shoot at the attacking planes and when flying the bombers, only 1 of the 3 planes shoot when I am in gunner position.  The bombers are in an attack segment and "can dogfight" is checked.  Any ideas about this?  The mission is smp51p47vb17 on ndisles terrain.  I would post the .mis file, but that does not appear as an option for this forum.

You NEVER set bombers to "can dogfight" - should be problem solved...


Otherwise it's a case of cross-afixiation where the AI will pay attention to the inital aggravator until either the threshold cap is exceeded or the original aggrivator is out of range...

Thanks for the reply.  I did deselect the dogfight, but I found out the real problem was I had them in a drop ord segment rather than an attack like I thought.  They do fire now.  Thanks
