Losing aircraft because they refuse to refuel

Post by jason oates »

1.07 1500 playing Crimea river.

Despite there being 4 tankers within a few miles just had 12 aircraft go down due to lack of fuel.
WRA set to refuel
Anyone else seen this or have i missed something?
Surely we have to rely on the AI to react like a pilot who would surely refuel if they had the opportunity even if they had order to the contrary. If they were about to run out of fuel. No one would never get into trouble for saving a multi million dollar aircraft even if they were told not to refuel and they ignored that order.

I'm not sure these are the same issues. I'd recommend creating a separate thread for your discussion and questions.

Thanks for the report. This is something we are actively working on simplifying

There's no point without a save.

On first blush I see:

1) You have tankers refueling tankers which just messes up the tanking queues.
2) I think there are too many fighters trying to fuel.

Overall, I think the ARA strategy needs to be cleaned up.
