Dave62ndFF Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 Since version 2.5.6 I have been unable to rearm/refuel the Hornet when creating a fast mission. I have tried both ramp and runway starts, the Caucasus, Nevada & Persian Gulf theatres. Changing aircraft colour scheme & number works. Changing the loadout does not. I have been concentrating on learning the Hornet of late and am unsure if this issue applies to other aircraft also. System: Gigabyte GA-970A-D3P, FX-8350, Radeon RX-580, 32 GB RAM.

Deano87 Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 Are you landing at a designated friendly airbase, not just a neutral one? Are your radios tuned to the correct frequency or have you tried opening the canopy?

Dave62ndFF Posted March 14, 2020 Author Share Posted March 14, 2020 (edited) Are you landing at a designated friendly airbase, not just a neutral one? Are your radios tuned to the correct frequency or have you tried opening the canopy? I am trying to rearm/refuel at the airbases the mission generator assigns me to when the ramp or runway start options are selected. (No point in taking off if I can't set the desired loadout). I just tried again with an attempt to manually tune the radios but did not get a successful result. I also have the easy communication option enabled which should make tuning the radios unnecessary if my understanding of the option is correct. I also tried opening the canopy, no luck. As I recall the canopy also starts open with the ramp option (cold start). I just can't seem to get the "copy" acknowledgement from the ground crew and the requested loadout changes don't happen. It seems to me that something has changed/broken between 2.5.5 and 2.5.6. I have 2.5.5 stable installed and have been using that as a workaround when I want to select my own loadout for a practice session.

Dave62ndFF Posted March 14, 2020 Author Share Posted March 14, 2020 Also note, I have been able to rearm/refuel in multiplayer missions using 2.5.6. The problem just seems to be when creating a fast mission for solo practice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EAF602 Red Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 In my experience all base’s are Neutral, you need to go into mission editor and change it Red Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tippis Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 In my experience all base’s are Neutral, you need to go into mission editor and change it If you assign a landing or take-off spot, that base automatically shifts to the corresponding coalition. With a ramp or runway start, that should already be the case. That said, there's every possibility that the autogen doesn't actually fully follow the mission editor rules and just dunks waypoints in place through special means, thereby failing to trigger the bit that should auto-assign the base. ❧ ❧ Inside you are two wolves. One cannot land; the other shoots friendlies. You are a Goon. ❧ ❧ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave62ndFF Posted March 16, 2020 Author Share Posted March 16, 2020 In my experience all base’s are Neutral, you need to go into mission editor and change it Red Thanks for the suggestion EAF602, this seems to have been the problem. After creating a fast mission in 2.5.6 I had to go into the mission editor and change the warehouse from neutral to blue. IMHO this should still count as a bug though. Why the added complication? The way things worked in 2.5.5 was more streamlined, just set your options & go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
