CodeToad Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 After having gotten VERY frustrated w the Dora take off (half a Luftwaffe arsenal destroyed on Batumi myself) I am trying to get a training mission together with some planes "ready for takeoff" so I do not have to taxi every time - it gets very frustrating. I use Multiplayer but on my own so I can burn one plane up and have the next one ready to go without having to go through the rather funny but pointless SP reload every time. I am setting several Doras up with "Takeoff from runway" but they all start from from the ramp hot. What could I be doing wrong ?

sniperwolfpk5 Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 Well a simple thing which i suggest. Create a mission put your Dora or whatever jet you want to fly then select take off from the way point dropdown. Now practice if you die. If you don't die but damaged then use l.ctrl + e(e three times to eject) and then just press r.ctrl + r.shift + tab and you will be re-spawned in new plane ready for take-off. I hope this will help you learn take-off without taxing and without starting your engines. Win10, Intel 3rd Gen.

chromium Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 If you're loading a MP mission, takeoff from runway is disabled for preventing Aircraft spawning while someone else is using the runway. You can only use that function in SP.

An airplane by it's nature wants to fly, and if not interfered with too strongly by unusual events or by a deliberately incompetent pilot, it will fly. A helicopter does not want to fly. It is maintained in the air by a variety of forces in opposition to each other, and if there is any disturbance in this delicate balance the helicopter stops flying; immediately and disastrously.
