No, none of the planes were designated as 'AI Only'. I understand what you are saying. (The mission was just a small test to see how the 'Taxi to Takeoff' feature works in a coop environment. The four planes were all meant to be flyable by a human.)

However, 4.11 did not have a 'Taxi to Takeoff' option. This would make it necessary for AI-controlled planes not occupied by a human (in a coop) to be automatically placed on the runway. Otherwise, they would just attempt to take off in a straight line from their spawn position. I understand all that.

But now in 4.12, we have the 'Taxi to Takeff' option. An AI that spawns in, say a hangar, will not simply take off in a straight line. It can be assigned taxi waypoints to the runway where it can safely take off.

So to me, it doesn't seem unreasonable to wonder why the AI-controlled planes in the 4.12 coop mission I described are not following their assigned taxi waypoints.
