I confirm; the missile turn away. This behavior happen also at 1:1 compression.

And I had the same behavior in the scenario HDSL-9 @ GE_028, while I assumed that this is the result of the Mainstay internal ESM, or the result of jammer which is 110 nm away. Could someone please confirm my assumption?

Confirmed in 2007.032

Could this problem be related to the torpedo acquisition problem?

Could this problem be related to the torpedo acquisition problem?

 

The two are unrelated sections of code.

Has anyone had the following event:

 

AI submarine is within range of player's vessel; AI submarine fires torpedoes, but the torpedoes are fired in the opposite direction away from the vessels?

I'm loathe to bump a topic like this, but this behaviour is still happening in-game.

 

I do believe it's related to the jamming (as I've found it happens alot when Badger-J EW jammers are in the area.

Bump away, but also note that we haven't forgotten

Yeah, I was just wondering if it was intended behaviour from the jamming.
