Used to press 'U' to cancel RTB, but units seem to be ignoring that. Changing the mission doctrine seems to fix it, but of course that has other consequences.

U is for unassign from a mission. B is RTB.

...OK, I think you edited your question while I was answering.

So ran a bunch of tests with planes on missions and not on missions. Let them RTB, hit U and stopped them. Hit B and they restarted RTB. Used all default Withdraw setting.

Also, what consequences concern you? The Withdraw doctrine can be set per side, group, unit, and mission. It can be changed manually, events, or Lua. I'm not sure what the concerns are.

Oh by consequences I just mean that by setting the RTB standards differently it means they won't automatically RTB when I want them to. For reference, I'm playing the new NF 13.1 posted in the Finished Scenarios thread. That scenario's default is set to 'use weapon loadout,' and they RTB when they reach that state. For whatever reason, pressing 'U' to cancel their RTB does not have any effect, they completely ignore it. The problem is solved by setting the overall doctrine to 'Winchester,' which gets them to respond to 'U' again. I have no idea why.

Can you post an example file demonstrating the issue?

Thanks!

I'm still confused about why using the Withdraw settings isn't a solution.
