Hi !

When you launch more than one Helo or whatever Platform in an ASuW patrol with "Engage non hostile targets" set to No. Platforms always recon the same target rather than sharing the job.

At least in CMANO 1.01 "FOST : Advanced ASW Exercise".
But i guess the behavior is the same for all scenarios/versions.

Regards.

FOST : Advanced ASW Exercise does not have any enemy surface units.

Effectively, there is no ennemy shipping, but there is still a lot of surface contact to investigate.
I think that before firing everywhere, you have to check for neutral first and to know your surrounding.

Try setting up multiple patrol boxes with investigate contacts outside the patrol area set to off.

Will add a note to look at the logic of setting up a large area with a bunch of A/C to it.

Hi,

Same scenario/version,
I have made 2 ASuW patrol zones with 'investigate contact outside...', and helos have the same behavior. Always investigating the same contact at the same time. Once the contact is classified, they both jump to the same next contact and so on.

bon courage ;)

yeah I set up a patrol box out in front of my ships and had it move relative to the green rover group. I had like 6 helos and the nimrod flying around. once a contact was made they all went to investigate. I then made another contact but no one would break off to investigate. all my helos and nimrod had changed status to engaged offensive. they all moved to the next contact once they lost the initial contact or it was destroyed. really don't want to set up 3 patrol boxes and assign 2 helos to each. still wouldn't stop both helos from investigating the same target so not a fix.

Hi,

Ships on ASuW patrol behave as expected. Version 1.01, Chumonchin chan scenario. I didn't try with aircrafts yet.
Next post/scenario.
