Scenario is Give Them Hell, a community created mission. Not sure if this is due to the tanker being only a friendly asset but not on the same side, but I have seen my other F-18s do it properly in this scenario.

I have an F-18 that chose on its own accord to leave its CAP and go for refuelling, but by the time I checked again it was running down the map with a tanker in tow, burning down to 200kg but still not doing anything.

You can find it as VFA-86 #4 in the southeast.

Took a look, cant get it to refuel. I can order it to RTB and unassign it but then it still wont listen and itll start reverting to RTBing. Doctrines seem to be set ok. Indeed might have something to do with the fact that the Tanker is a different side. Tried adding a NATO side tanker and he still wouldnt listen, probably because by now he is so critically low on fuel.

Thanks, logged.

Possibly problem with doctrine inheritance.
Managed to get it refuel by changing unit Refuel doctrine to explicit Yes from inherited Yes.
Or doing the same for the Sidewinder CAP mission also does the trick, #4 links up with Filo#2 right away.

Fixed. You should see it on the next public release.
