I was playing Giuk1 scenerio with the new 2018.05 version with DB 150928 and also tried with 150621. I notice that missile in all versions with midcource guidance would adjust path if target adjusted path unlike inertia

 

and terminal guidance which would only if the target was still in it own sensors range of detection. I engaged with both aim120 and meteors and in all cases the missile directional arrows of flight in group window would

 

point to the intended target yet it would not adjust course to pursue regardless of distance to target and sensors of launch aircraft on or off. They acted as if they did not have the midcourse guidance flag present. The is

 

the first timeI have ever seen this while playing. As this is the newest version I am not sure if it is produced by new methods of defeating midcourse guidance by ECM or decoys. I have attached a small test scenario with

 

150621 db in I launched the E3 60 km 0 degrees on patrol and launch four typhoons to surface attack red base. The red base will have 3 pairs of F16 MLU on patrol west of base at 60 km spread. Once the E3 was

 

launched and activated red base cap break to intercept. I then redirect blue typhoons to engage F16 and fire once in maximum range causing them to redirect to attack me. I expected my missiles to alter course to

 

intercept F16 but never altered course though if watched in group display directional arrows for missiles point towards intended target without changing course. I am posting it here as I am not sure if posting to issue

 

tracker is recommended.

Test.zip

I have now included testing it with sparrows and have consistently gotten the same result. Unless the targeted aircraft maintains a steady course and does not alter course after missile laucnh the missiles will always

 

on as if only inertial guidance regardless of missile type (Aim120, Meteor, Sparrow). I am not sure as stated before this is part of the newer version or may just be a bad reload of the game but would like to know if anyone

 

has experience this or is able to recreat this using the test scenerio produced with the certainty I have.

Thank you sir, will have a look in the next 2-3 days.

Confirmed in 2018.007

Fixed for 2018.008 which should be uploaded to HarpGamer tonight.

 

- Chg:0000 GE Missile unit turns during midcourse guidance updates were

broken in 2018.002+. The groups were turning but not

the units. Fixed. Checked out all 2016.003 uses of

SetGroupSliver and compared them to the codebase. The

one causing this bug was the only one I found awry.

Tony, please test with 2018.008+ and report back on whether the issue is fixed for you.

TonyE ran multiple test of the fix and missile now tracking and altering course as before. This is a fixed.

 

Thanks again for you hard work keeping the game going.
