Yak Rear seat

[kkaiserfnp]

Hi all,

I cannot seem to figure out how to share the yak front/rear seat for instruction in multiplayer. Any ideas?

 

Thanks,

 

Ken.

You have to bind Request Aircraft Control in your input options. These might be of interest:

The default keybind for "Request Aircraft Control" is "J".

 

• The 'pilot' spawns in first and once in game the 'instructor' joins the same aircraft (from the server's 'spectators' list).

• The 'pilot' gets a pop up dialog listing players requesting to join his aircraft - and clicks on the player he wants to allow to join and clicks ACCEPT (or cancels the dialog).*

• The 2nd player joins as the instructor in the rear seat.

• The 'instructor' can then request control by using the assigned key/button "J" for 'Request Aircraft Control'

• A 'Accept Request' dialog will pop up, giving the controlling player the option to refuse

• ONLY the 'controlling' player's joystick - controls the Yak-52 flight stick, etc. but it's movement is seen by both players.

• The 'Pilot' can 'Request Aircraft Control' back using his assigned key/button (provided the instructor accepts).

 

* A common mistake is for the 'accepting player' to not click on the 'requesting player' name in the popup dialog and the ACCEPT dialog button remains grey/unselectable.
