I'm sure this gets asked about once a week. It's my turn now so here goes: I have a TrendNet Router with Port Forwarding set to 10308 with UDP/TCP checked and routed to the proper static IP address. I have tried changing my /config/newtork/config.lua file timeout settings to "600" per the suggestion of a helpful HyperLobby player. I've also tried deleting the file so that it would regenerate on the subsequent network game--to fix the previously suggested fix.
...So those were the attempted solutions thus far. Here is my problmem:
When I connect to a hosted game either through hyperlobby or entering the settings on my own, I get into the cockpit just fine. I (usually) can taxi just fine. Half the time I can take off. The other half the game stops and exits to debrief. On those occasions where I manage to get off the ground it flies fine and will continue to do so for as long as I just fly. I can watch other planes fly, I can get close to them, but the momment I fire a weapon even if I am just shooting up grass with my guns, the game stops and exits to debrief. No crash, no death, no explanation. Just the debrief of my takeoff time.
I've been playing single player for months without any problems. I've also been playing Falcon4:AF multiplayer without any problems, once I got the port forwarding thing figured out.
Any help is appreciated.
