Plane stoped middle air - online
 

I was flying on ATAG server and coming back to base when this happened.

Little video shows it all. It has no sound, but notice the server information being displayed on top left.

+1 i had the same think also on ATAG!
Game was not crashed i was able to press "esc" and create a new plane!

I had the same thing happening to me when playing offline using the new Alpha-Patch.

I had the same thing before the patch! After around 5 mins I started flying again. :confused:

Ive also had my whole plane turn invisable like some kind of messed up despawn but I could still fly and shoot. It was pretty tricky flying with no instruments. After around 10 mins it came back... :confused:

Strange: notice the Instruments (and throttle) keep working in the video!!!

Sweet net code.

I had this too. I flyed around the planes for a while and then I got a timeout conection error. So I think it happens because you lost contact with the server.

Pls notice that i had not lost contact with the server. I had this happening offline, but online it was the first time. Second, if you enable HD on youtube the top left corner of the video it will be readable, so you can notice i kept receiveing info. And the way i found to get out of this situation was to spawn a new plane. I didnt had to reconnect.

Sorry, I had not seen the video yet when I answer. That is not what happened to me. My plane was flying fine, but I saw a bomber formation with every bomber pointing towards a weird direction and all them completely stuck in mid air. What was even more extrange was that they seemed to follow my plane in his very same relative position. So this may not be the same problem. This one never happend to me, but sometimes I have lost completely the plane cockpit while flying online and get stucked in midair with only the landscape.

Just today I've been told about a script on ATAG that removes planes after a while after touching down for landing. But I hear it can 'bug' somewhat if you have a rough take-off and bounce at least once, with the script thinking you've gotten back already. Maybe it's that? Weird thing that steering still works, though.
