[FIXED] AEGIS ships not Auto-firing SAMs

[Abstract9]

I've had this issue for a while in a few different scenarios, but essentially, some AEGIS ships (I haven't seen this bug on any other ships) just ignore incoming vampires unless I manually fire the SAMs at the incoming weapons. In the save file, I have the Jack H. Lucas being fired on by a land battery of YJ-12s. When I run it, the Lucas ignores the missiles.

Its not the Aegis that is the issue. Its an issue related to the gunfire bug in another thread. If the ship has a longer ranged weapon that can't fire at the target, it will not fire any other weapon. To test, remove the SM-3 and SM-6. If you do, it'll fire SM-2s and ESSMs.

This seems to be a general and fairly serious bug.

Thank you. After looking at the patch notes though, I noticed that this was stated to be fixed a few patches ago in the case of ships with the SM-3 not using shorter ranged weapons. I wonder why it is still happening?

Probably the fix didn't fix it. Or it was too specific and it was broader problem than was realized. Or the fix broke something else.

and why the YJ-12s are first identified as SAM in new weapon contact?

I'm having trouble replicating this in the latest public build, can you send me a brand new scenario/save that shows this happening?

Thanks

Yes, I made another scenario but I tried C-802s instead of YJ-12 (not sure why the YJ-12s showed up as SAMs in the last one), and I had the same issue, the ship had it's radar on and despite having enough time to finish the OODA loop, it didn't engage the missiles. I checked manual weapon allocation and it said that all the SAMs should be able to fire automatically, but they didn't. I have build 1328.10a and I'm running command via Steam btw.

Hi, a fix for this issue is being worked on.
It was probably wrongfully marked as fixed before but the fix was not in line with our expectations and didn't cover all the cases.

I recently also noticed this issue and I am glad to see that it is being worked on!
