I played through this twice, the first time I noticed a lot of AI vehicles greying out at the start, zoomed over and saw the same, overturned APC's and tanks on their ends.
second time not so bad, AI lost 3 APC's within the first 10 minutes after that they got their shit together and mounted a decent assault.
No 'paths' used in this mission.
It's a night mission and the AI has some terrible terrain to negotiate, suggestion to fix this - option to deploy AI vehicles automatically on roads/tracks furthest from the players territory, maybe even a way to instruct AI to use roads more. At least then they will have a chance to get into attack positions, I guess they are spawning in randomly and in certain terrain that can clearly be catastrophic.

There are roads available but they went off them on the way, circled back etc. It was a circus.
I'm going to dry out the battlefield and see how they do.

I think the game has issue with user made scenarios.
It will get fixed MR.
Don't let it put you off the game.

Well it is a new feature, it's inevitable there's going to be some teething problems. I think for user made missions right now it's best to stick with offensive scenarios, AI seems a bit derpy when attacking the player. I love this feature, as you say it will get sorted.

I tried again with dry weather and they did much better. Just a quick setup so I didn't play it out just see how they advanced. They still lost a couple vehicles but the terrain is definitely not the best. To say they were struggling when it was wet out the first time would be an understatement.
It's a shame that you can't dictate the ground conditions.
Wodin, I'm not put off the game. Graviteam games are my absolute favorite in the 20 years I've been gaming on the computer. I was more dissapointed after spending an hour setting up my forces and then waiting for the mess that never came. Then I watched them completely break down and fiddle fart around, immobilizing themselves as they went.
It was almost comical, if I didnt spend so much time setting up my forces.
This is why it would be nice to save after deployment phase. You can cheat it a bit by saving the autosave file to another location if you want to play with the same setup.

Very large fans. I changed it from rain to clear. I assume that is modeled.

I further edited the battle to split them up into two groups and gave them paths for each group. The left group I had metteing to the left before heading towards the town and did the same with the other group except going right and then into town. So far only 2 disabled trying to get out of the initial deploymkent area and they all moved as they should into town. No sight of the grop on the left. bed time.

I was referring to sharing missions

But ai pathing is the problem correct? As designer of the shared mission do you have to plot way points for the enemy ai units?
