vliegtuig Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 Hello, The situation: When flying a mission in the A-10C (or probably any other unit), I regularly take a look at the briefing through the 'escape' menu. When i have viewed the briefing i press the 'back' button. This brings me to the screen of 'select role'. Since I am already flying the A-10C, i press the 'back'button again. My intuition tells me this should bring me back to my cockpit. It does not. It makes the plane i was just flying AI-controlled. This really bothers me since I was halfway through a mission twice, and lost control of the airplane this way. Maybe it is more intuitive to let the 'back' button get you back in the cockpit you were in, instead of handing the control of the plane over to the AI?
GauSki Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 This has caught me out a couple of times as well and agree that it isn't as intuitive as it could be. Every time I see the "select role" screen now I freeze in my chair like a rabbit in headlights - just in case I press the wrong button and lose control of my aircraft. I've found the ESC key is the go-to command in this situation.. But when you are "in the zone" its easy to button mash the back button as soon as the screen pops up and you end up as a grumpy spectator
cuervo111 Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 Agreed, happened to me to and don't even realised how I got there. DCS Rosetta, my automatic DCS mission and campaign translator: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=233877
