AI Wingman won't use Mav on LAU88 launchers

[pandacat]

Just notice this bug. Not sure whether it is because:
1. Won’t fire off rack launcher like LAU88
2. can only fire mavs on the inner most pylons

But tested the following:
1. Doesn’t matter what version of mav(D or G) is loaded on the inboard pylons. AI will fire them no problem. Since LAU88 can’t be loaded on inboard pylons, I can’t test whether it was due to pylons or racks.

The AI will acknowledge your command to fire, but just won’t do anything. If you let it go on weapon free, it will keep circling the target area and attempt to attack, but won’t launch any missiles. It will also ignore any commands to RTB until you release it from weapon free status by ordering it to weapon hold.

I’ve had AI failure to fire even holding LAU-117/AGM-65 on two stations and the other two with wing tanks. I do not think it is because of the LAU-88. AI picks up information about the mission from lots of places which the user may not suspect or understand fully.

I tested the AI with 6xAGM65D only (no other AG weapon) and he shoots them fine (although in a funny order off the stations). When I made the loadout AGM65Gx2, AGM65Bx6 (two AG weapons types) the AI stopped attacking after the first AG weapons (it picked AGM65G first) and had to be reordered to resume with the next type.

If I load all pylons with same type, could I fix this issue?
