In the FC version of PWCG   I am trying to get a player squadron to do an escort mission.    In the advanced configuration have set the fighter mission type numbers to '0' for all Central mission types except 'Escort' which is set to '100'.    The generator still want to assign patrol missions.    Am I doing this wrong?

Try this. In the program at the point where you push the key to create a mission, there is also a key to create a mission with assignment, such as escort off a drop down list.

I've tried that. The only role for fighter squadrons is 'fighter'

Possibly it is getting overridden by the squadron configuration. If you look at the json file for your squadron in PWCGBos\BosData\Input\Squadron you can see the squadron roles. I believe these override/interact with the campaign settings. Note the squadron roles can change over time as well. Not sure what the role is to get escort missions. Probably I would guess ROLE_FIGHTER.

 

eg from 4 squadron.

I don't think there is a separate Role_Escort.  I've had escort missions come up periodically with Role_Fighter.

Yeah, the only role I have seen for fighter squadrons in FC is "Fighter"
