surfcandy Posted October 29, 2019 Posted October 29, 2019 What is up with the autostart option? I am learning the A-10C and sometimes I want to autostart a mission. I've read about the autostart issue that has been around for a long time. Is it fixed did I miss something or is it still broken? I will eventually learn the manual start up but for now want the autostart until I get more experience.
Shimmergloom667 Posted October 29, 2019 Posted October 29, 2019 While I have never used autostart and couldn't comment on if it has any problems: go start with the manual startup. It is fun and doesn't take a whole lot longer than the INS needs to align. In case you want to train something specific: just set up a hot start bird. i7 - 9700K | 32 GB DDR4 3200 | RTX 2080 | VKB Gunfighter Mk II /w MCG Pro | Virpil T-50CM2 Throttle | TrackIR 5 | VKB Mk.

I use autostart all the time and although havent flown a10c in a while I haven’t experienced any issues with autostart.
surfcandy Posted October 29, 2019 Author Posted October 29, 2019 Autostart for the A-10C completes it's startup cycle but the aircraft remains not started up at the end of the completed cycle. The Autostart feature appears broken.
ED Team BIGNEWY Posted October 29, 2019 ED Team Posted October 29, 2019 Hi Please attach a short track replay showing this, I can not reproduce myself. all seems fine. Please ensure your throttles are set closed before the autostart as sometimes this can create problems thanks Forum rules - DCS Crashing?

surfcandy Posted October 30, 2019 Author Posted October 30, 2019 To begin with I doubt it makes a difference but I am in Beta The "autostart" attemtps that were unsuccessful for me were in "Instant Missions" "Cold and Dark" in the Caucasus, Nevada, and Persian Gulf maps. I tried the "autostart" feature in "Piercing Fury" and autostart was successful. Will test more missions tomorrow.
surfcandy Posted November 1, 2019 Author Posted November 1, 2019 Can anyone reproduce same results in the "Instant Missions" mentioned?
Ziptie Posted November 1, 2019 Posted November 1, 2019 Tried, functions correctly. I had issues occasionally with the AUTOSTART when I left the keybind to the default mapping. After changing it to RCTL+UPARROW, haven't had any issues at all. Seems some keyboards struggle with things when they have left and right windows buttons as well. Might give that a try. As others have stated, manual startup is rewarding, and you can actually accomplish it quicker than the autostart when you learn the use of the ALT ALIGN and then FAST ALIGN options within the CDU - but for starting out, it certainly is easier to use the autostart function. Hope something in there works for you. Either way, let us know.
