Shadow KT Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 So, what I discovered is that with the latest patches, now AI will drive faster, close to their maximum speeds, which in the past was pretty difficult to do. They still slow down sometimes when there is a small turn or a bridge or the objects are too close to them, but for the most part it is improved a lot... Here comes my question tho, this is only possible when they are in the default "In a line" or "Trail" formation. In any other formation, they will slow down to a maximum speed of 20! Is this intentional ? I can see some logic behind it, but you might need speed when in a battle formation as well... after all, that's what the slider is for 'Shadow' Everybody gotta be offended and take it personally now-a-days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ED Team BIGNEWY Posted April 16, 2020 ED Team Share Posted April 16, 2020 Speed depends on the terrain also for each unit, if you have a mixed group they will try to keep with the slowest unit. thanks Forum rules - DCS Crashing?

Shadow KT Posted April 16, 2020 Author Share Posted April 16, 2020 What I am referring to is done with the same vehicles, on flat terrain. It is the formation that changes the maximum speed and I am asking if this is intentional or not? I can see some logic behind it, being the other formation are more tactical than the trail formation.... but why limit the speed, when there is a speed slider.AI formation speed.trk 'Shadow' Everybody gotta be offended and take it personally now-a-days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ED Team BIGNEWY Posted April 16, 2020 ED Team Share Posted April 16, 2020 Yes the group will try to keep formation, it may mean the lead unit slows down so the group can catch up.

Shadow KT Posted April 16, 2020 Author Share Posted April 16, 2020 (edited) I've posted a track. If the group is set to any other formation, which is not trail, their MAX speed is 20 knots ! No, not waiting, no different vehicles, no slopes or different terrain... Maximum speed in the formation is limited to 20 knots.

pacastro Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 For me the last update broke the road following logic, I have had Abrams miss turn in roads, go out of the road turn and continue outside of the road on its side at 5 mph, or zigzag trying to get back on the road completely missing it and zigzagging back... all this at 5 mph. Sometimes they get in the road and continue full speed. Same thing with some other units, HMMWV TOW for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
