4.12.2 de-bugging

The same happens with the Do-335. The aircraft remains controllable as long as the pilot is attached to the falling seat(IIRC you can actually switch back to F1 cockpit view during this time).

Presumably there's a technical reason for this, as most of these advanced features seem to work around engine limitations.

Hi TD!

I think that a subtle fine tunning is needed on "Takeoff Line" and "Landing Straigh in" features.

Takeoff Line:
Whenever the leader (plane 1) is not the first to get airborne the flight goes into a mess as soon as it reaches the second waypoint (normfly) in which the AI planes are firstly instructed to keep formation (whatever the type). Usually one or more planes crash to the ground while trying to find their place through erratic flight behavior. I wonder if it would be possible to make the leader begin takeoff procedure some seconds before the others to avoid the mess...
(BTW, the leaders should always go first don't you think so? )

Land Straight in:
Planes land too close to each other to the point that some of them start chewing the tail of the guy ahead.
I've found that "plane 4" uses to be the trouble maker because I don't notice this problem when I set the flight with only three planes.

Obs. v4.12..............The Best Patch Ever!!!

I agree with both of these points. I've seen each one many times and it would be nice to fix them if possible.

There is a problem with planes taking off big US carriers, most of the times one or two aircraft will crash into the superstructure deck. As Japanese carriers have much smaller superstucture deck, their planes don't crash into it.
It began since 4.12 or 4.11 I think as in old Pearl Harbour everything worked fine. It's very frustrating, hopefully the AI for US carrier take off can be revised.

Some of the planes always used to clip the islands when taking off, but for some reason they didn't crash when they did. A fix that means the aircraft taking a better route along the deck may therefore involve finding and fixing a bug in the original code, so it's probably not simple to do.

Hi please attach the mission here or copy and paste it.

thanks

There's a shortkey for changing icon types, default is Ctr-I, IIRC.
