Maybe I am wrong, but I can't remember seeing these strange maneuvers in 4.11.

EDIT - I just tested the heavy bomber behaviour in 4.11.1 and noticed the same problems, so it is an old issue. Nonetheless I think TD should try to fix these unrealistic maneuvers. A number of times I have seen collisions between bombers because of this behaviour.

While trying out the new “taxiing” feature I have come up with an annoying bug which can be seen even in the demo mission “AI Taxiing” made by DT and included to 4.12.
In that mission you just roll out of the hangar and taxi all the way along the yellow line to the intended take off position where you take off, retract flaps and gear and then turn the autopilot on – and the autopilot will ignore the flight waypoints, it always flies back to the field where it starts flying in circles at almost zero altitude as the player’s aircraft appears still attached to taxi waypoints.
I would appreciate any comments about such AI behavior, thank you!

OK. But the response "Roger" from wingman was not in 4.11. Thanks.

Just tested two missions in QMB 4.11 and both times I got the response "roger" from the wingman when I spotted the enemy aircraft and pressed F4, I had never noticed that before.

There is a difference though, in 4.12 your AI wingman immedaitely engage. In 4.11 they stay in formation and only engage if you order them to via comms (eg. tab + 2 +3).

Please, post the miss on where one of the surfaced submarines fire torpedoes.

Looks like all ask subs with the ending _surf(see mission file) can't launch torpedos.
Shuka and TypII are launching torpedoes.
All others dont.

Main bug for me so far is the take off bug...

In a mission i built on the Burma map at Imphal airfield, 3 flights of 4 Blenheims in Line take off formation, bombing supply dumps, of the 12 A/C between 2 to 4 A/C crash just after take off, engine speed drops whilst climbing and plummets into the ground, sometimes they recover, most times they don't. I've tried different skill levels of the pilots from average to veteran, no difference.

Also Paired take off of the escorting Hurricanes sometimes (but much less often) 1 or two will crash into ground or each other.

This is common with most of the A/C i've tried and on different maps.

Also, on occasion i find some fighters whilst in a dogfight will fire at nothing at all.

Thanks for your continuing support of these forgotten aircraft.

- Online dogfight mission.
- Solomon's map

- I created 3 home bases at Henderson, fighter 1, and fighter 2. Each base has a combination of AI taxiing to take off combined with static planes available for players to fly.

- The radius of each base does not overlap another.
- There are static aircraft at each field that cover every player spawnable aircraft, even for planes that are not available at those fields.

So here is the issue. I spawn a P40B at Henderson. It spawns in at the location of a static aircraft as anticipated. I take off and fly to fighter 1 airfield and land. That airfield has static P-40B aircraft, and can also spawn unlimited P-40B aircraft. However, if I hit refly and choose a different aircraft to fly' the P-40B that I just landed is still sitting on the runway where I despawned.

I also replicated this on the Marianas map. The home base options to "use stationary planes" and "return static aircraft to original position" properties are checked.

In the FMB, select the homebase and check if you have ticked the box for returning aircraft to original spawning position after landing.

yes, it is checked. I eliminated the problem by making 1 home base cover all 3 fields at Henderson. I still find it odd that a player AC launched from Henderson and landed at Fighter 1 would remain parked on the runway at the despawn point; but my workaround suffices.
