New feature: Child safety locks. Only the pilot's door has the button, though. Downside is that if the pilot dies, well, so do you.

Sorreh.

I get an entire computer freeze when hitting the quick mission builder button.
There is no 'last.quick' in the quick missions folder.

When using the new Taxi to Takeoff option, planes totally ignore the first waypoint immediately after takeoff. This can even be seen in the demo mission that came with 4.12 (AITaxxing).

See the screenshot below of this mission. The white plane is the Player's plane on autopilot. As you can see, it ignores the first waypoint after takeoff (WP-2) and plots a course for the next waypoint (WP-3). I looked at the mission further and all the other planes do the same thing.

I made some test missions on my own and all of them had the same issue. Basically, if the new Taxi to Takeoff option is used, that particular plane/flight will ignore the first waypoint directly after takeoff.

*When makings test missions WITHOUT the new Taxi to Waypoint option, all planes/flights follow all of the waypoints normally.

When I try and replay a .ntrk I've saved, I can only use cockpit and external views of my aircraft (despite having difficulty settings allowing all views bar enemy a/c externals at the time of recording). I still have full control over the orientation of the camera, but it's locked to only these 2 camera views despite friendly a/c and static cameras in the mission.

I did find one way to correct it - if you used a view other than the above two while in-mission, letting the game show that view with manual control OFF, then toggling it back ON once you've seen it allows full control over all the camera views again.

I added the SaveTrk=0 line to my conf.ini and have been replaying the .ntrk with icons off (fiddling with that switch made no difference, neither did starting the playback with the view control switch in either position).

You can't install 4.12? Or the game won't run after you install 4.12? Didn't know that some of the digital downloads still came with DRM packaged in there... what a cluster****. Did 4.11 install alright?
