General Discussion / Passive/Distracted AI
« on: October 17, 2013, 03:29:05 PM »
I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem. Often, I have fighter wings and/or frigates under AI control be a little too passive in taking out their targets or being distracted by other enemies/missiles that aren't a threat. Even when setting fighters to Intercept, which, according to the tooltip, states that they will ignore other targets and put themselves at risk, they get distracted by missiles that aren't targeting them, they often do not close to engagement range, attack another target, or oftentimes, back off from engagement range when they have the advantage. Now, I'm nowhere near an AI coding expert, so I'm not sure if this is working as intended or is the best that can be expected. I only know I have been frustrated on many occasions when fighter wings and/or frigates could have easily destroyed their targets if only they had continued to pursue them and actually fight according to their assignments.
