[1728.2] Grouped aircraft don't correctly change throttle after RTB

Post by WillpowerDisturbance »

I've noticed that after a group of aircraft completes a manual or generated (flight plan) attack and go RTB, only the lead aircraft will correctly change throttle when when changed manually using F2. Happens for both lowering and raising the throttle for the group.

Scenario file is attached. Only thing that needs to be done is change the throttle setting after the groups of aircraft have complete their attacks and go RTB.

Please let me know if you need any additional information.

Aircraft needs to follow FP rules, if you want to manually change plot/speed/altitude unassign them from the mission and you can change the values.

That being right, why does the leader have a different behavior?

Either none follow the order unless you unassign and give a manual order or all follow the order...

I confirm the point, and also that the above response from blu3 sounds equally unsatisfactory to me

That's right, the leader should keep the FP settings but something is interfering with it. Investigating it

This issue may be associated with the reported issue whereby the LEADER attacks at the expected altitude, but the rest of the group is almost always much higher.
