erichswafford -> How do I create a SAM ambush? (7/10/2014 8:37:11 PM)

Or would that be a SAMbush? OK, stop groaning for a second and see if you can help me out. It mentions in the updated manual that you can use Prosecution Areas (PA) to, among other things, create a SAM ambush where your SAMs will wait and fire at close range. So, to be specific, how would I do this, say, with a ship which has SAMs? What I want is for the ship to proceed on course, but fire it's SAMs at anything that gets within a few miles. How would I go about setting this up using the Mission Editor? What I tried to do was: 1) Create an AAW mission and assign the ship to it, but with no patrol area specified (since I want the ship to just proceed on course). 2) Created a PA using rotating relative bearings which extends out from the ship a few miles. This worked great, except... Even when a hostile a/c breaks into my PA, my ship never shoots. The moment I Unassign the ship from the mission, it goes ahead and cuts loose with its SAMs. I've got Engage Opportunity Targets enabled, the radars are lit up, Ignore plotted course... is enabled, and the contacts have been designated as Enemy. What am I doing wrong?
