Helicopters offset when starting on carriers.

[John Maynard]

As per heading - helicopters on the Tarawa spawn about 55m behind and 10m left of where they should appear on the deck - enough to drop them off the edge immediately after they spawn in.

The same issue presents with the Kuznetsov, and something similar with the US carriers (although they displace forward and to the right).

 

No issues with fixed wing aircraft, only rotary.

 

Is this a bug or something I've missed?

 

I would appreciate help on this, the issue didn't appear when first I made this mission, and now appears in all new missions.

I have to presume you are using the Live branch of DCS, as in the Open Beta this is how the spawns now work:

Yes indeed, live version - is the Open Beta more stable?

I'll give it a try in any case!

Thanks!

Not more stable, but more (unfinished/buggy) features to be mass tested!

I really need to point that out, as lots of people seem to understand the OpenBeta as some kind of stable Version with just more features. The beta is by definition not as stable and reliable, as the stable version. We have more and more people on the forum ranting about "bugs" and "unplayable" DCS etc. while referring to the OpenBeta branch.

You can of course try the OpenBeta, see if it works as expected, but always keep in mind that it's a testbed to find bugs and issues in the new features. ;)

Oh I'm fully aware of that, dont worry ;)

Having tried the Beta now, from my perspective it is 100% less buggy than Live!
