Unit Does Not Respond to Navigation Orders

[JoeBob6041]

I'm playing the Aegean Sea scenario and BB-64 will not respond to any navigation guidance. This happens even when I disband the formation and select the ship individually. It just goes straight at 32 knots. Other ships that were in the formation work fine. BB-64 is undamaged.

Seems be a wider problem, one of my ships in the Vietnam 1 star scenario also does not respond to any orders and needs to be manually guided.

I have the same issue. Units often get stuck on orders and are unable to do new commands. Also, when playing the Vietnam scenario, on the map missile icons stop appearing after about 15 min of playtime.

Same for me. I fixed it from time to time by right-clicking a target on the map and then right-click on the map again. Until it auto-engaged again.

Also I have ships breaking formation to engage other units. There seems to be no way to force them to keep position.

But its pretty annoying.

Had the same issue with the Vietnam scenario. The group with the cruiser and the two destroyers was not listening to any commands and just went wherever. The cruiser outside that group I could control (and won the scenario with).

Same problem with the vietnam scenario as well. I guess somehow the ships get confused on positioning themselves to engage the enemy and navigation orders. I think...

yeah kinda hard to play the game when when you cant steer your plane or ship LMAO

Same here, have it in all scenarios I played. And mostly it happens at the worst time...

[Aero1995]

Same all the mission. Randomly I lose control of the ship or submarine and I can't control it afterwards.

Have the same problem. Ships stop responding to navigational commands and just head off on their own, making the game unplayable.

Same issue

[-- Rooster --]

Yep, ditto on the vietnam scenario. Ship won't respond to move orders, unless you direct control it. Tried all sorts of remove from formation, add to formation, resume course, delete waypoints, add waypoints etc.

I had the same issue in the Prairie Fire mission. I had two ships that just stopped responding to any thing the rest of the formation was doing. I tried removing them from the formation, halting their speed, reversing...they wouldn't respond to any input at all, they just kept going all ahead flank in a straight line.

I'm not an expert, but ships may override movement orders if 'Weapons free' or receive orders to engage targets outside of their weapons' arc/range.

[STEPS]

Same. The ships dont stay in formation no matter what. In all missions and the mission editor. They go the opposite side chill for a while or just dumb out completely.

I am happy to wait for a fix but dear devs you are charging a hefty price for a ship game where the ships dont do what you tell them to do.

+1 to having the same issue.
