V.14762 BETA Errors

[csThor]

Not exactly new, either, but any kind of AI flown fighter (even your own aircraft if you activate autopilot) has a messed-up aiming point for the weapons. I've tried this with Hurricanes, Spitfires, 109s and 110s and all of them are aiming slightly above the target -and that means without deflection and with deflection. In the latter case the AI pulls too much lead and frequently misses its target. This way hits become the product of coincidence.

Happened before beta to.

The new multiplayer GUI is great compared to the last one (only the server name are missed on the server's home screen), the improved reflections are wonderful especially on Thiger Moth's windshield and also on instrument's glass and some propeller hub (even if it's too pronounced on other parts like exhaust manifold).
The debris when a bomb hit the ground is a nice addition, and the improved night lighting too, now we wait for moonlight shadows .

• Problems accessing Tiger Moth's loadout screen, buttons (LOADOUT, OK, BACK) doesn't work as they should, you have to press both to get in or out, this happen both in single and multplayer.
  
• On single player you can't change weapons and fuel loadout (all aircraft).
  
• BF-110-C4 and C7 canopy (the upper part) doesn't get closed.
  
• Sing of crash on the terrain are missed.
  
• Playing track I found that some ground object are missed or maybe lies under the ground.

P.S.
thanks for the advice FG28_Kodiak , I'm flying with the keyboard (since the release) until the new rudder pedals arrive, so it's a bit hard looking behind the cloche while I'm flying.

In cockpit, you will find a switch under that indicator, click it!

Yup, that bug is still around. Frustrating to be honest, its been around for as long as I remember and it should be a simple thing to fix.

There are different skill levels configurable for AI. Believe it or not it's a feature. Start a thread in Gameplay subforum with your usage questions rather than in a bug reporting thread, please!

I am quite aware that the AI can be configured, thank you very much.

My statement stands - even set to Ace with insane shooting skills the AI will aim too high (and often enough above the wingtip) and waste so much ammunition that it ain't fun. A rookie who wouldn't hit a barn from the inside, yes and well, but an ace?
