(Normandy Map - Needs Oar Point) Taxi bug

DCS Build: OB 2.5.6

Map: Normandy

Own Mission Build: The Prestwick Run

Airfield: Needs Oar Point

Dispersal: From Starboard dispersal RNWY 16 - Parking Slot 46

Runway: 16

Unit: Single AI Spitfire (non clipped wing)

FINDINGS:

1. The AI aircraft has a push task START which is activated when a vehicle enters a zone.

2. The single AI Spitfire starts to taxi but turns right instead of left for the runway. It then reverses to and on to RNWY 16.

3. When ready to take off the aircraft tries to spin on the runway to a correct orientation but insufficiently.

4. It then strikes placed units off the runway to the right. Even if those units were not there the aircraft would strike the trees.

5. Because of the crash the remaining two individual AI spitfires will refuse to take off.

Please refer to attached video.

Hi BIGNEWY,

Thanks

 

I had a quick look.

 

From what I can tell the parking spots for the spitfires are corrupted, check each parking spot to make sure it is numbered correctly, in my test once corrected they taxied ok.

 

thanks

Thanks BIGNEWY, I have had to move all four aircraft to achieve the required result. Was this simply an update glitch or is it something deeper?

I wasn't expecting such a catastrophic failure at mission start, particularly as it worked prior to the update. Glitches don't ya just love em.
