I'm not sure yet, I would have to check because I'm not in control of the spawning part, that would be MES. Tbf I have not yet experienced the problem of the planes not spawning but I could try adding in Aerodynamics mod if it indeed causes the problem. Thanks for this info! :steamthumbsup:

@khjin After trying for a long time, I finally figured out the problem.if you have an Aerodynamics mod plane can't spaw Can you fix it?

I'm having the same issue of AIs not spawning in as well

Unfortunately I'm still having the issue

Hello! It seems that my latest update somehow broke something. I'm still looking into it but in the mean time, I have reverted the mod. There's a bit of delay, probably a minute or two after restart of a world that the mod would be able to spawn the planes. Kindly wait and then try again.

I have replicated the problem and is now fixed on my end so I hope it's also fixed for everyone. Cheers! :steamhappy:

Spawn Commands dont seem to work anymore.

So, the drones don't spawn on my worlds, and this hasn't been working for some time. Am I missing an unlisted mod? Or did the AI block update screw everything up?
StootWorts 5 May, 2023 @ 11:51am 
Ah, understandable. Thanks for the explanation! Regardless, the mod is still great!
Khjin  [author] 5 May, 2023 @ 5:09am 
Ah, sadly the behavior of the drone and how they fly are not up to me but to MES which is doing the flying. The drones themselves flies great when used by a human pilot but when it's AI they basically don't know how to bank or use airbrakes so there's that. Maybe someday a new AI especially made for planes is created and the drones can finally fly great.

*not work very well with mods that remove the speed limit
StootWorts 4 May, 2023 @ 8:48pm 
My bad, I should have worded it better. There is no speed limit but that makes them not work very well. They will infinitely accelerate and constantly overshoot your positions by several kilometers and then miss you again on the way back because they're moving too fast. Would it be possible to add a speed limit, or allow for the option of one so they can control themselves at those higher speeds?
Khjin  [author] 4 May, 2023 @ 8:12am 
Hmmmm, haven't looked at the speed adjustment yet but I don't remember adding any limit on that so they should be good to go. Glad you're enjoying the mod :steamhappy:
StootWorts 1 May, 2023 @ 8:44pm 
The only thing I wonder is if it would be possible to make the drones work with mods that remove the speed limit. Maybe like give the drone a top speed it will maintain, since as of now without the speed limit it will just infinitely accelerate and fly in circles.

Holy crap I've been looking for something like this forever!! Thank you!!!

Thanks, I plan to use it on all my planes, great work:steamthumbsup:

Script is part of the released mod so you can use it but you can't release it separately. Cheers :steamhappy:
乂Oo忘★了愛oO乂 24 Feb, 2023 @ 3:46am 
Will the script that automatically fires the flare be made public?or can you let me use it?
geraveoyomama 11 Feb, 2023 @ 12:41pm 
that would be awesome, thank you for looking into it!
Khjin  [author] 11 Feb, 2023 @ 8:24am 
Yeah I had to use it for the prop planes but I guess I can try and use plane parts mod instead. I'll see what I can do.
geraveoyomama 11 Feb, 2023 @ 5:56am 
It would be very cool if the dependancy on AWGCWP could be circumvented but I understand if that's not feasible
geraveoyomama 11 Feb, 2023 @ 5:37am 
It seems like the propellors are the culprits :P
geraveoyomama 11 Feb, 2023 @ 5:34am 
How big of a role does AWG CWP play in the functionality of these fighter?
Khjin  [author] 3 Feb, 2023 @ 6:21pm 
Tbh I don't know what's happening at this point. The spawning part is handled by MES, all the planes can only be summoned within a certain altitude. Please note that these drones spawn from 5k to 10k away from you with antennas off, so kindly check the entity list first to confirm if they spawned. These drones are for testing radar/detection systems and long range missiles.

I realised that it is not spawning only in the atmosphere. I can spawn them if I use the commands in space.
G-han 3 Feb, 2023 @ 1:14pm 
It only says "chat command spawn request sent" and nothing happens. I'm playing in my creative world and drones are enabled in the worlds advanced settings.

Best thing to do with this
#1 get a good fighter for yourself
#2 Spawn 5-6 of the missile fighters
#3 Play "Kings" from project wingman
#4 Kill them ALL

Thanks! :steamhappy:

very good my friend!
Khjin  [author] 24 Jan, 2023 @ 7:00am 
Check if you have drone encounters enabled in Advanced settings. Also you have to be admin to run the command.
乂Oo忘★了愛oO乂 24 Jan, 2023 @ 6:31am 
After taking turns with the instructions you provided,only get 'chat command spawn request sent'
then nothing happens,did something wrong?
