4.12.2 de-bugging

[Ventura]

on the small airfield NE of Kazsok, you cannot place stationary aircraft (this case Bf-109G-6 Hungarian 101 sqd) anywhere inside or even partially outside the first 4 SW, map embedded, airdrome masking nets (sm?) to use for 'set' to a waypoint for taxiing.

Even stationary aircraft completely outside, in front of the net does not function. Have even tried placing matching 'grass parking plates' fully under the nets in question.

When attempted, the aircraft from the waypoint end up lined up to takeoff from the opposite end (NW) of the strip with the same stationary aircraft still under the (SE) nets.

Strangely enough, the fifth net accepts (a 109G6AS) and shows an active icon for proper active aircraft in game. (Have not tried the 6th)

(Said 'feature' in jest. no sarcasm intended. What I get for being in politically correct mode)

Feature or bug? No Hawk or P-40 model has a lockable tailwheel in 4.12.

When using the new Taxi to Takeoff feature, AI planes no longer land and taxi to their final parking spot. They simply stop in the middle of the runway and then disappear.

Yes, the 'Despawn AI AC after they land and park' setting is unchecked in the FMB.

Ki-45 in default Japanese markings has red numbers on the left side of the tail but white markings on the right side.

TBD has a strange "flickering" texture when gunner's canopy is up, at least when damaged and rear gunner killed.

Aviar, Yes that's the one I was talking about, thanks for posting the image for the others as sadly I will not near my sim's rig until at least this evening (AU-time).

Can't load dogfight mission, built in 4.12... Other (old, made in 4.11.1) missions are OK, but new mission is not. Loading percents did not start increasing..
May be some problems with dedicated server?

Mission for dogfight server in attachment

_RAAF_Squad last night ran a few missions that were one to two patches old.

In one map there were no beacons placed anywhere on the map and several of the fliers online noticed random morse letters being "transmitted". On the second map two US carriers and a YG beacon, I had no beacon selected and still got morse letters.

Thanks again for the patch guys!!

No even in the MTO map. I built the mission with wellinghton and their landing on runway took place the disappearance.

Not a bug, but it would be nice to have a different resolution for the UI and the game itself for us with very widescreens, aka eyefinity: When using bevel-compensation it happens, that a portion of the info needed is hidden behind the bezels. I QMB its difficult to set up a scenario this way. Sure my bezels are not the smallest but anyway....4.12 really rocks!!!!! Thank you TD!!

If you are fighting in the QMB against AI and your engine gets hit and stops suddenly, flick the Autopilot on and your engine instantly restarts, even if it is smoking heavily, then switch off the autopilot and continue flying....

I wonder if this will work online......
