Hi, I have a problem I hope someone can help me with,

I have made a new air unit and it all works fine, except that it will not auto acquire the enemy within its viewing radius it just pointlessly sits there, however if i set it to guard an area it will attack the enemy just fine?

I've put alot of time into this mod so I would greatly appreciate if someone could point out what i've missed or done wrong.

Thanks in advance.

Add this to the AI update

Thankyou for helping me, I've tested it and it works fine now, I can't believe I put that in the wrong place, to many late nights modding I guess, Im making it for my kids and they will be chuffed that it's now playable.

Thanks again.

You probably shouldn't have added an AIUpdateInterface either. That would normally cause a crash, and it may well cause instability.
