AlGrant -> [1.11 SR6] Ferry Mission Nav Route (11/18/2016 11:49:01 AM)
|
The AI struggle to plot a course for a Ferry mission if there is a No-Nav zone along the most direct route and can get stuck until they reach Bingo fuel .... then they plot a valid course.
In the attached scenario:
2x Airfield (#1 & #2)
2x Altas C.1 at airfield #1 - both assigned to ferry mission.
Ferry mission: Destination: Single-Unit Airfield #2 (Cycle) - Quick turnaround enabled - Flight size - single aircraft.
Outward path:
Both aircraft seem oblivious to the No-Nav zone, flying directly towards it until they reach the edge.
AI navigation then gets messy with both aircraft struggling to find a way around.
One a couple of occasions the aircraft plot courses that seem to get the around the No-Nav zone but they then double back and get in trouble again! A/C speed fluctuates wildly, dropping as low as 0kts.

Both aircraft remained 'stuck' until running low on fuel.
One aircraft eventually reached Bingo Fuel it plotted a valid course the mission destination, the other remained 'stuck' until it also reached Bingo Fuel and then plotted a valid course to airfield #2

Return path:
Both aircraft still struggle to find a return path, but manage it a little better than the outward leg .... possibly due to the angle of the No-Nav zone in this scenario.
Not checked all other mission types, but did check a support mission and also issuing RTB commands to aircraft where the courses would require navigation around the No-Nav zone. These worked correctly with the AI plotting a course that avoided the No-nav zone.
