COOP can the AI follow taxi way on takeoff

[TP_Jacko]

I was trying to get a group of AI aircraft to follow the taxi way to take off by editing the airfield table. However all that happens is the aircraft start and race across the field.

 Then I wonder if in a group of 4 2 were AI can they follow the humans along the taxiway

Shouldn't be a problem.

Make sure the "command take off" isn't set to "no taxi take off"

Also, make sure that you set the airfield coalition to match the AI coalition.

 

Aside from your current problem, sometimes a plane will leave the taxi path and taxi directly to the takeoff VPP point. This problem occurs because the takeoff vpp point is closer to the current taxi point a plane just crossed than the next taxi point the plane will cross.

This was the noob mistake. And AI taxi's with Human pilot in a slot. Not tried to block the AI's path to see what happens.

 

Each WP on the taxi map caused the AI aircraft to slow down so its best to keep them to  a minimum
