Tour 4 Op 3 A-W Blue is going after T/F Gamma

[Justagai]

In the original, A-W Blue went after T/B Alpha first. T/B Alpha is set as a primary target, while T/F Gamma is set as a secondary.

This happens in TOD 4, not 3. (I was confused for a while :D ) In any case, this is not a bug, but how the wingman AI works.

When Gamma gets close to Blue 1, Blue 2 disengages their main target (Alpha) and attacks Gamma to protect his leader. Blue 2 will keep fighting until his target is destroyed, then it will evaluate if the other Gamma ship is still close to Blue 1. If not, then it will join Blue 1 again to attack Alpha. If Gamma is close to Blue 1, then Blue 2 will target and attack Gamma.

If we want this to behave in a different way, we need to agree how wingmen are supposed to behave.

Sorry, changed the title name. It now reflects the correct tour.

Yes we will have to gather more data on how the wingmen AI works.

Some notes on Wingman AI behavior:

• Wingmen AI will stay in formation unless they have a target

• Wingmen and Leader will target enemy leader on approach unless they are in the spiral, hi-lo, or stacked formation (they will attack the 2nd in FG instead, leader still goes for enemy leader)

• After first enemy is destroyed on approach, they will target the nearest enemy regardless of leader's target/position

• They will resume formation when there are no targets
