svidangel Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 I sent 3 foxtrots at a bomber/2fighter group, and got jumped from directly behind by a 3 fighter squad. However, when combat started I was directly behind the fighters. Not that I mind, but not very accurate. Seems like the game just checked that someone was behind someone else.. and assumed I would be chasing them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthew Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 They might turned around. Sometimes i have this happen, but the UFOs like to fly all over the place in random directions. Is it happening for you consistently? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smoitessier Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 I've never been jumped from behind in the air combat screen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
svidangel Posted July 5, 2013 Author Share Posted July 5, 2013 This wasn't a random pathing. I was chasing a UFO, they were chasing me from behind. Once they engaged me, they were suddenly in front of me flying away from me, as if they passed through me. Maybe they were flying too fast on the geoscape and by the time the combat registered they were treated as being ahead of me? I will have to try to have a heavy fighter wing chase down a flight again sometime, usually I target those first so it has always been face to face combats.
