[REPORTED][MERGED] Carrier Taxi Problems

[195th_Magic]

After I trap on a carrier. Fold wings and hook up. I try to taxi out the way but barely moving with like 90% thrust. then when i clear the landing area its like the wind is blowing my plane around preventing me from turning whether I use NWS HI or not. Seems like i'm just sliding sideways across the deck. Please look into this... Its very hard to taxi around the deck when everyones planes keeps sliding.

Hey I noticed this. With any substantial wind over the deck (over 5kts), the wind will affect taxiing, but more so when it's across the nose. You will rock around. turning into the wind helps this, but it makes noise like a buffet noise and for some reason seems to affect the carrier deck handling more than it should.

I'm wondering if the carrier's speed has anything to do with it. It's 27 knots in this mission, I believe.

[ALREADY REPORTED] Aircraft Slide on Deck with High Winds

 

I'm seeing some strange slip action on the deck - the tail end 'slipping' into wind when taxiing.... Am I imaging things?

[reilar]

No, you don't. I'm seeing the same thing. But it doesn't happen all the time though. Haven't had the time to figure out when it's actually happens. Could it depend on wind strength or carrier speed or a combination of them. Don't know.

I noticed the jet behaves fairly well on the deck even in high seas until you try to do something with the ground crew. For example following a successful trap I am parking the jet and applying parking brake, no movement. Requesting the ground crew for refuel/rearm and I can observe the jet starts to move around slightly, then resetting back to the original spot and again moving. Nothing major but doesn't look right.

The wind pushes the airplane when the carrier speed is 20+ knots. Set mine to 19 and have no problems.

[mytai01]

I set the wind to 50 knots and had the carrier going 20 knots into the wind. Things became a little difficult on the deck...

Known issue

 

for now reduce the wind or the speed of the carrier.

[ALREADY REPORTED] Sliding on deck?

 

Hey all,

 

Shooting carrier landings on Stennis and been sliding on the deck. I have carrier doing about 25Kts into the wind. After catching wire I go to taxi back to catapults I start getting blown sideways once I am perpendicular to the wind. It makes getting lined up for cat launch a nightmare.

 

I understand the wind can blow planes but even lined up into wind I am sliding..

 

Is this still just WIP?

[sideshow]

Really wish they would lick this issue. Especially with all the shipboard jets we have, and are planned.

Weird Wheel behaviour/ slipping

 

Hi,

Single player practicing carrier landings, PG map, using Autumn rain weather preset, Hornet was uncontrollable trying to taxi around the deck of the carrier. Felt like the wind was trying to wind-vane me and physically moving the jet but when adding power but it behaved as though I was trying to taxi on a soapy/mushy floor. Felt more like a problem between the deck and the wheels more than the jet and the wind based on my commands and how the jet reacted.

Weird carrier behaviour.trk

Aircraft slide in parking on rearm/refuel

 

While in parking area on Stennis, perform a rearm and refuel and your plane will slide around on the deck, as though it's being pushed by the wind.

 

This happens even with parking brake set, engines off, and wheel chocks in place.

F-18 Slipping and Sliding on Carrier Deck

 

Hey Guys!

 

I decided to set a speed on the Stennis to 27 knots, and I’m finding it difficult to taxi around on the carrier deck. The airplane slips and slides all over the place. I thought it was fixed. What is the maximum speed I can set on the carrier so this doesn’t happen? Thanks!

We set it at 15 knots and it still happens. Makes it impossible to taxi on deck.

Okay David, thanks man. I’ll check there and see if there’s a solution.

Looks like setting a max speed of 19 knots on the carrier is the fix for now. Thanks again guys! See Yah!

Unable to taxi on deck

 

I created a mission and for some reason I can’t taxi to the catapult, at least very easily. Chocks are removed, Parking brake off, NWS HI, throttle to 70%, don’t move. Throttle to 80%, I start to creep forward but then drift towards my wingman even with rudder turning away from him to cat. I can’t figure out why it’s doing this. I will upload the mission shortly if the file isn’t too big.

Set the Carrier speed at 20 knots or less.

[Eagle7907]

Set the Carrier speed at 20 knots or less.

 

 

 

Okay, I'll try that. Curious. I've seen some videos of people setting the boat to 27kts. Is this something been reported?

[Esac_mirmidon]

At least at that speed i dont have any problem. I think there are more reports about that but im not sure if is officialy recognized.

Unable to taxi on deck

 

I tried reducing the boat speed and still sliding about during taxi. Here is my mission file. For the life of me I can't figure out what is causing this.

 

Note: The mission has an escort element that spawns at 8:03 at the cat. So I don’t know if that may be the cause?

The first WP is set to 19 knots but the WP 1 is still at 27 knots.

 

The moment you unpause the game the Carrier starts to increase speed to 27 knots. Thats why.

 

PD: Im trying your mission unedited and i´m not sliding even at 27 knots. Thats strange.

Oops! My mistake. I’ll fix that and test again.

 

And that’s from cold and dark to taxi to the cat?
