[RESOLVED][1728 and before] Strike does not launch for "not enough fuel" despite within range

Post by Knightpawn »

I very often get an annoying message when planning an strike that despite being within strike range there is not enough fuel for the flight plan and I should make appropriate adjustments. As a result the mission refuses to launch. The thing is that in reality there is enough fuel to get back as shown in the flight plan created.

I would expect that this is a common problem.

Make sure under the "configure" tab for AAR you're checking both "Launch mission without tankers in place (extremely risky!) and "proceed the flight with no tankers in place". If both of those aren't checked for each pool/task/mission they won't launch. If I do that in your save it works once I create/update the flight plan
