MikeG1 -> [FIXED] Ignore plotted course issue with latest dot three five beta (11/8/2021 2:37:49 PM)
|
Hi
When playing with this beta I've noticed that airborne ASW platforms don't appear to be searching for submarines correctly, possibly this is related to the noted 'ignore plotted course fix'. I noticed this playing 'Hells Highway' and replicated it in a test scenario.
The behavior is
-Aircraft on either ASW patrol mission or manual F1 engage enters 'engaged offensive' and approaches target , 'ignore plotted course' set to yes
-I'm not 100% sure on this but if contact is maintained with the submarine all seems to be well. I can't reproduce this reliably.
-If contact is lost, rather than entering a search pattern 'ignore plotted course' (IPC) sets to no and the aircraft continues on its patrol; ignoring the target. IPC stays set to no.
-Manually switching ignore course back to yes, gets it to turn around, make a pass and then 'IPC' sets back to no again.
In the test scenario based on one of the tutorials (see uploaded zip)
-The helicopter is engaging the diving submarine on an ASW patrol mission
-As it approaches 'IPC' sets to no and it ignores the target
-Setting IPC to yes gets it to turn around, but then IPC sets back to no and it ignores the target again
-Removing from the mission and trying manual engage results in the same behavior.
