A2A Refueling tankers aren't leaving their path to refuel

Was playing Desert Falcon when I encountered this. I'm pretty sure this is a bug but if not let me know. Presumably important site info:

Version: Build 1328.14, STEAM
Windows 11
NVIDIA Share Disabled

I have a strike mission set up to use air-to-air refueling, I want the KC-10A Tanker to leave its path to refuel the F-15E's on the way to hit a target. I think the fact that the f-15s are going back and forth and ultimately back to base is an issue on my end so I'm not concerned about it. I'm mainly just trying to figure out if it's a bug or a skill issue regarding the tankers

my best guess it that the F-15s aren't fully refueling. and because 1 of them can RTB all of them do, forcing 3/4 to crash instead of just refueling at the tanker
Only have ~12 hours on the program so I'm relatively inexperienced with this program. save the file attached along with a YouTube video of it

couldn't post the save as .scen file so I put in a .rar collection

Hi

The save you have attached does not correspond to the one in the video. In the save you attached there is an airplane with the configuration of not refueling, so the airplanes do not refuel. Apart from this, I also can't get the KC-10 to follow the fighters on their flight path (in other versions I haven't had this problem).


Regards

I see, sorry for the inconvenience. I saved it by accident, overwriting the current save I have. The save posted was intended to be before the mission but it seems to be my fault on my end. On the bright side, it seems that it might be a kc-10 issue or a tanker in general issue with the version I have. if anything new pops up ill make a new thread if needed

I'm having the same issue with other tankers. Tested with multiple versions of the KC-135 and different F-15's. Most likely a bug is what I'm guessing
