Bug-Thread for Patch-Release-Candiate (Friday, 28. Sept)

[nakedsquirrel]

- Players Cannot fire turret machine guns or rear guns in multiplayer. (this only happens when an enemy aircraft is nearby)
- AI gunner will no longer target after a player has occupied their gunner's position and left.
- AI gunner often doesn't shoot at enemy aircraft
-Distance Dot LoD of boats, buildings, lights, and other objects can be seen through clouds and sometimes the ground.
- Boats sometimes float above ground, hang upside down, or sink under water during multiplayer missions.
- AI flights sometimes behave move/behave oddly in multiplayer missions by spinning or bobbing up and down

The fuel tanks in Dover no longer explode when shot – pity, it was part of my test routine. Slight performance increase compared to the last beta. Nice to see the cloud shadows back, pity the shadows from smoke look slightly strange, but at least they’re there

Thank you for your feedback. Working on British engines, distant dots, and others at the moment.

Just a couple of quick points though.

That is working as intended actually.

That again is working as intended - finally. I know it was kind of fun to have a giant fuel tank explode when hit by a single round, but that really shouldn't happen. We've gone through most of the ground objects and their damage model, and they should correctly consider material type and wall thickness. You're going to need something bigger than a .303 for those fuel tanks now.

Hurah...

Thanks.

Sorry, what's working as intended? Surely not the difficulty starting some red fighters? If so, can you please add an option to start warmed up?

No he means the mixture is now correct, it fooled me but the spit buffs told me its working like it should I.e. you cannot go to lean mixture when the throttle is back...

[Stublerone]

Please have a llok at bugtracker and solve some important of them, includin view control, which for me personally is a reason, that I and many others of the squadrons don't fly.

[lonewulf]

Couple of things:

a) some projectile hits (flak/.303 rounds) on the 109 (and maybe all aircraft) still don't make any noise.

b) aircraft are still very hard to see from above. When I say 'hard' I mean unrealistically difficult to see.

also, and as mentioned elsewhere in this thread, you can see ships through the cloud cover!

Thanks Krupi. Bloody internet is broken and I can't get the patch, let alone get online.

Thanks for the response, they did ignite rather easily before which didn't appear to be very realistic
