this is a bug, but a not so bad bug. I'll have to explore it to see if I want this behavior or not. Currently I fixed the bug but am exploring possibilities from this 'bug'.
The escorts that stopped were part of operation guard convoy. They are supposed to keep steaming following waypoints if:
- they don't have a contact spotted
- they have a contact spotted but it's not inside the convoy area
- they have a contact spotted and it is inside the convoy area but they've 'lost' it for x amount of time
I also figured out why the convoy never changed direction and/or speed when you killed the leader. That is being fixed also.
Keep in mind that due to the dynamic nature of IRAI there will probably be many bug fixes still. It's impossible for me to account for every single possible scenario because it's way too dynamic.
EDIT:
after some thought I decided to make a new operation and role for this stopping behavior. It's going to be operation protect convoy. The tactics of this op/role are going to be:
- keep steaming with convoy if:
* no contact detected
* contact detected but outside convoy area
if contact detected inside convoy area:
- investigate
if contact inside convoy area and investigating but 'lost' contact:
- go to all stop and wait x period of time
- after x period of time start spiral search for y period of time
- after y period of time rejoin convoy and follow waypoints
