CV32 Posted October 14, 2017 Report Share Posted October 14, 2017 Two issues that will need test scenarios (and testing) from intrepid players: * tendency for aircraft in ASW formation patrol to drop sonobuoys in ineffectual clusters rather than randomly distributed within their assigned patrol zone * aircraft under AI control to go to Vlow altitude while performing evasion, and aircraft under player control to go to Vlow altitude while performing auto intercept Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
broncepulido Posted October 14, 2017 Report Share Posted October 14, 2017 This second one is a serious issue, as human player lose a lot of fighters unless a very tight manual-controlled interception. I refered it in some issue in the issue tracker section, but I was incapable to reproduce it in any ad hoc test scenario. About the first one, I'm finishing a rebuild scenario when perhaps could be possible to observe the sonobuoy drop pattern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CV32 Posted October 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2017 Thanks Enrique. I have also noticed that aircraft operating within ASW formation patrols are also running out of fuel and crashing, which seems likely related to the 'drifting' issue.

Palex80 Posted October 26, 2017 Report Share Posted October 26, 2017 I've also witnesses AEW aircraft in formation editor which stayed at low altitude, thus diminishing radar range. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyE Posted November 21, 2017 Report Share Posted November 21, 2017 HC2017.014 doesn't intentionally solve any of the formation troubles but getting it 'shipped' allows me to get the internal improvements it brings solidified so I can get back to the bug hunting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donaldseadog Posted November 22, 2017 Report Share Posted November 22, 2017 Thanks Enrique. I have also noticed that aircraft operating within ASW formation patrols are also running out of fuel and crashing, which seems likely related to the 'drifting' issue. what I noticed last night withrespect to this is that the aircraft that run out of fuel don't seem to be in a proper formation, when you look at the formatino editor some 'patroling' air units aren't listed by patrol type (eg 'asw') but by their class description (eg MV-22b Osprey). The "delete patrol' button is also greyed out. This list of errant air units sits above those that are correctly patroling. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both in the "A Passage To Lebanon" and in the modern ASW scenario in the Sea of Japan, are present helicopters carriers with a lot of helicopter patrols, but I was incapable to concrete a pattern in the erroneous helicopter auto patrols.

This one made it into the Issue Tracker at http://harpgamer.com/harpforum/index.php?/tracker/issue-166-ai-controlled-air-running-out-of-fuel/. Don't know yet why it happens but as least I can see it.
