as I told you sooner in this thread => why going from track to avoid ? (track is to force an AI to follow an ALREADY DETECTED other platform)
There is no need at all to do that.

Why ?
simply because as long as your human sub is NOT detected, even if the AI sub is in avoid, he won't avoid it !

Just a logical process => put the AI in AVOID and NOT track from the mission start.
your sub will avoid ONLY, of course, WHEN he will detect the sub to avoid, and of course NOT before, simply because he doesn't know the other sub is around ... until he knows ... then, ONLY, start to avoid.
You get it ?

in this process, you don't need at all to change the target mode, it's the same from the mission start => avoid.
And this is the only thing to do to make it work.

This doesn't prevent you to use script to make the AI sub attacking other platforms, even if the AI sub is in avoid target mode on the 688i.

So all this thread to tell you : just do one thing => target mode " avoid" 688i
that's all, and it will works as you want.
