Help needed

So, I started using this mod lately, and i got to say, i love the variety of mission, how i fly higher than the normal 2k from vanila campaing, diferent weather and so forth.
I do have something that has been driving me crazy. I can't find, to save my life, the reasson my teamates or enemies seems to be almost blind. Do you know those interception missions, saying to engange with anything that you spot? Or those patrol missions that usually say the same thing, about you being free to intercept anything in the route. Yeah, I see the enemies far, but not that far, you know, close enought to apear on the map, but most of the times my teamates and squad leader seem to ignore them, we only end up engaging when we are almost on top of each other. Is there something I did wrong in the cofigurations, is it a known "problem" or is there something i can do so, you know, my squad leader will intercept the enemies in interception or patrol missions?

I can provide further information if needed

That has to do with the AI itself and not the PWCG software. AI is a bit wonky in the way it "spots" enemies. Sometimes even if you trigger the enemy AI, your AI will literally ignore you. If you can get 3 other actual people with you, the game becomes so much more fun. I've "forced" IL-2 down the throats of 3 of my friends, and now they enjoy it way too much.

Last patrol mission I was the leader and my wingman flew to my right.  By now we had been flying for 20 minutes at an altitude of almost 5k.  Just by chance I turned my head to the right, just in time to see that the wingman left the formation with a nice turn ... Hey man where are you going !!!  There was no bandit in sight and I assumed he had decided to return to a nearby airfield.  I continued the mission and after ten minutes my wingman reappeared at my side.  So he hadn't landed, he probably saw a target but not visible to me.

I may be wrong, but i think that in the campaing not modded, the moment the targets are close enought to apear on the map, the squad leader gives atack orders. Heard him saying he spoted targets as far as 8km.
In PWCG capaing in the other hand, it just feels off. I see the dots, i use the map to check and see if those are reds, but it seems like i'm the only one that spot anything in the squadron. They might have myopia for all i know
