Problem is, everytime I run the mission in real time to test it, the Akula ends up making the hard right to 000, then she keeps coming around back to 180 and stops at 0 knots. She then floats there at 0 knts seemingly with the rudder stuck in full right. I cant figure out why it isnt following the waypoints....

Any suggestions?
I would try using scripts instead of waypoints. Add a destination event where you want the crazy ivan to occur. When the Akula reaches the destination, trigger the script. It should say something like, "Set Course to 000 for xx secs AND Set Speed to 20 for XX secs." Have a second trigger set to fire xx seconds after the first. This one runs a different script that says something like "Set Course to 090 for yy secs AND Set speed to (whatever Flank is) for yy secs"

Let us know how it works out.
