Laser designator mission

[Pancho]

Well, I made a quick search and found nothing related.

On the single missions thingy. The one with the laser designator where you have to destroy a bridge. I get into position and "paint" the bridge with the laser. I call in the fighters but instead of attacking the bridge, as they should, they begin to attack tanks and soldiers in and around the village. The bridge goes unnoticed.

How do you get them to destroy the bridge???

Well, that's fucked up.

In my experience, you must HOLD the laser designator on the bridge, so the fighters will engage that target first.

Did you put your designator away before the planes had arrived? Keep it out and steady until the bridge is in pieces (well, warped).

I think the plane that is supposed to attack your laser target is the A10 LGB and not just a regular A10 right? Is the A10 LGB attacking tanks and stuff? Sounds very odd to me. When I played that mission I had a little problem with the plane not being able to attack the laser very well but circling it instead. I think this might be helped by setting higher viewdistance to give the plane more time to lock and set course to target.

Actually there are no A-10´s at all. All I get are F-16´s

ermmmm.... using FFUR i take it? Then that's your problem... apparantly backwards compatability of missions wasn't that high up on the check list...

not sure what you expect BI to do about your 'problem', given that an unofficial mod has caused it. Don't use FFUR if you expect to play the mission correctly at the moment, and post a bug report in the FFUR thread. You can always depbo the mission yourself and try and remedy the problem, perhaps make the tank's setcaptive or something.

If the problem is related to an addon/mod it should be reported in the thread of the addon/mod.
