BMS Manual p137\. My problems with the TE

[jc1]

This TE was my effort to create the TE in the BMS Manual beginning on p137. My TE start time is 5:00 and the first Package TO is 5:22. AWACS TO was 4:35. My Victory start time is 5:00 and ending 15:00 but no victory conditions. I ran the TE in accelerated time and captured a few pictures to show the status of the flights at 5:40.
Picture 1, ATO
Pictures 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 Show all flight paths with no red. SEAD, ESCORT, STRIKE Hammer, STRIKE Beast, AWACS
Picture 7, at 5:40, ESCORT Warhawk disappeared from mission list at its TO time. Why? SEAD Hawkeye “Enroute” but actually Aborted as #8 picture will show. Why? STRIKE Hammer at STP 3 Holding. STRIKE Beast “Briefing” but TO is 5:28. Why? AWAC should be on station at 5:18 but is not. Why?
Picture 8, SEAD Hawkeye at 5:40 “Enroute” and “Aborted”
Picture 9, AWACS at 5:40 with red flight path but was white before flight.

Edit:
Here is a zip of the TE:

Might be worth sharing the TE so we can have a look.

OK, Fish, I’m glad you want to examine this. Hope you can find want I might be doing wrong. I added a zip file of the TE to the first post of this thread for anyone to download.

Your strike 05:28 is displayed before the others, did you notice it? Check the take-off date, it’s borked. Redo the flight.

Try to enter in the cockpit of your SEAD/Escort. It will say “Your flight has been cancelled” way before it disappears. Though I can still frag another flight from this squadron. It’s the package or the flights. Redo the package, or the flights. Preferably the package.

White flight paths frequently become red in flight. Normal. I removed the borked 05:28 flight, AWACS works fine from 05:18 here.

When I look at the ATO and the Briefing in the TE Builder the TO times are in the correct sequence. Why did it put the 5:28 flight first in the Mission List?

Edit:
OK, so I deleted flight TO 5:28 in the TE Builder and re-added it. This change got the Mission List in the correct order, but still have the same problems.

The reason why it was so is written in my post.

For the rest, read the rest of my post.

Nothing to add to Loriks analysis its a broken mission, except suggest you save progressive versions as you develop missions. Might be better starting this one from scratch, since SEAD can’t be removed without taking the whole package out. Don’t forget to keep the .ini file for the new mission so all won’t be lost.

Good luck

As you guys said to do, I did the packages all over. Thanks @Lorik and @Fish for pushing that. In the re-do I realized where I was originally making mistakes.
