Odd Wingmen Behavior

[VvonAlmen]

I'm loving PWGC, and have not had an issue with this before, but it seems that my wingmen have forgotten that we're at war and that their job is to shoot down enemy planes! I'm in JG27, 1943, flying 109s, and mainly getting bomber intercept missions. However, unlike in other campaigns, I'm the only one doing any shooting. My flight will come across 5 or 6 B-25s, and my wingmen won't do anything regardless of my orders, be it "patrol for air targets" or "attack nearest air targets" or "do like me." I just end up shooting down the entire flight of bombers every mission, which seems a tad silly. It seems like they all act like this regardless of rank. They just circle the bombers while I get kills. I've seen threads on this, but they're from 3-4 years ago so I'm not sure if something has changed. The most odd thing is that they've never really done this before. Let me know if there's a fix! 

 

P.S, I've yet to see any fighter escorts over Normandy with the bombers. Will these come around closer to D-Day? 

 

 Thanks,

Attacking or not attacking is an AI decision.  PWCG does not control that.  The only thing that a mission designer has to control aggressiveness is one parameter per waypoint that defines aggressiveness.  For fighter missions I set this to "attack everything" for every waypoint.  As long as you hit the first waypoint you should be good.
