imacken Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 For everyone who is suffering from the gunsight disappearing bug in both the OB and Stable Release, the workaround is to use the last 2.5.4 build of the Stable Release. Works fine in that.

Magic Zach Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Bug is not fixed. Took the Spitfire out today, gunsight puked 10 seconds after takeoff. Wiggled the switch, nothing.

Shahdoh Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Over 3 hours of flight in the Spitfire today, no loss of the gunsight. Seemed to work for me. /shrug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic Zach Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Nineline thought it could be linked to random system failures. I have that checked. I'll uncheck it and see if that changes anything.

imacken Posted July 18, 2019 Author Share Posted July 18, 2019 Well, I have spent quite a few hours in the Spit since the update flying IA missions, the 2 campaigns, training missions etc. and I have had no problems with the gunsight. Prior to yesterday, the issue would show itself very regularly, to the extent that I couldn’t use the Spit in 2.5.5.

-0303- Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Nineline thought it could be linked to random system failures. I have that checked. I'll uncheck it and see if that changes anything. I mentioned I did NOT have random failures set in as post #5 in the bug thread 5 weeks ago... I also hinted at it having something to do with repair. Just happened to me as well. About 5 min after takeoff (Caucasus, Hoggit map). Interestingly it came back after doing repair. I just checked that "random failures" wasn't checked and came here to post: "gun sight disappearing". I wonder if they found it or just disabled Gun Sight failure (fine with that as long as it gets really fixed eventually).

SharpeXB Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 I am experiencing this problem. The gunsight will turn off for no apparent reason. At first I though it was damage but it just happened when I hadn’t been hit or anything.

FastForward Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 I think it's still a bug unfortunately, it just happened to me. I just flew two missions a few minutes ago and my gunsight disappeared in both, just after a couple minutes. Random failures are on, I'll go back and try with failures set to off just to make sure .
