My question is this: the AI flight directive keeps putting up superiority missions that are out of range for Malta, at least I think that's the case as when I check the "no fly" reason it's out of range. I know to check if they're out of range because they only show one hex being covered. I guess the question is why does the AI create an AD it can't fill? The AI is doing the same thing for TAC as well, but eventually planes get moved and once again those missions have planes. For now, when I see no planes eligible for a mission, I just uncheck the box so it won't try to launch. I thought maybe planes were attempting to launch, but can see in after action summary that zero sorties were flown.
My second question comes a bit later as the AI is trying to launch missions from Malta Air Command out of out of Barcellona in Sicily, yet this time none of the squadrons are there! There aren't even any air assets or supply at Barcellona. All of the planes are still at Valleta on Malta while MAC is on Victoria and has a blue line pointing to Barcellona. Is there a planned move op by the AI to Barcellona underway? Remember, there is nothing at Barca atm, no supplies or planes. Confused.
Long term, I know the answer is to not rely on the AI for your AD or moves, but I'm not ready to take the training wheels off yet
