4.11 General debugging

[jermin]

Engines with MW50 enabled overheat way too fast.

Historically, MW50 can be used continuously for 10 mins. After that, the engine needs to rest for at least 5 mins before enabling MW50 boost again. But in 4.11, the engine will overheat about 53 seconds after enabling MW50. Well within 3 minutes, the engine will be cooked up.

Was it a cold or hot engine? Was it level flight, steep or moderate climb? I just tried out the Bf 109 G-10, default armament but only 60% fuel load, radiator fully open. I wanted to use the MW50 to take off and climb. The overheat message popped up roughly 2min 30 seconds after setting throttle to 110%, which I did shortly after the plane started to move. I didn't climb optimally, but I made it to about 3200m altitude.

Actually, now that the gauges work ok, could someone teel us at which temperature each engine model starts taking damage or has a chance to? That info would be awesome. By now, all we are talking about is perception...

The new CantZ506B AI plane ignore static spawn assignment, and also doesn't seem to want to follow waypoints.

Using Takeoff options:

Normal or
Pair or
Line

And trying with static spawn assignment. You'll need to use external views to watch, but here's a test mission:

Also had CTD after hotfix applied. Flying RAF single mission and was just lining up on my victim when crash happened. Also noticed that screen resolution of desktop had resized from normal 1920x1200 to something way lower.

Sea planes (AI) do have an issue with spawning on a static sea plane.
However, the CANT AI plane has issues that the Zero-N plane does not.

[eduzk]

First: Excellent work! I had almost given up hope that some day there will be a fair AI.

Some things I noticed:
- Fiat G.50 cockpit compass shows some incorrect numbers: "W...27...21...S...18...15...E". Also, the "N" looks glitchy.
- In winter Moscow or winter Leningrad maps, at about 7:30 a.m. the ground looks very bright when compared to the sky.

I didn't climb optimally, but I made it to about 3200m altitude.

I was testing late-war bf-109s in a duel quick mission setup. I started midair on Cremia at 1000 meters. Immediately after spawning, I pulled back the throttle and enabled MW50 and then pushed forward to maximum 110%. (The radiator was set to automatic by default.) I then did a shallow dive to about 500 meters when I met the enemy aircraft. Then I started dogfighting with him. I did it mostly in the vertical plane. When I pulled up from the dive, I got the overheating message. It was merely 53 seconds into flight. If I continued dogfighting with full throttle, the engine would be cooked up within 4 minutes. (you can tell it from the oil blotch spilled onto the windscreen and the over-revolution engine sound.)

Then I did another test with 500 km/h level flight with the same power setup. (no enemy aircrafts) The engine was still damaged within 5 minutes.

MW50 boost was not supposed to be used for take off and climb in history. So your data is not compatible.
