Start from RWY at wrong position at NTTR

[Redglyph]

In DCS 2.5.6.45317, in the Mission Editor, at the NTTR airbase:

 

- if I add an aircraft "start from runway", it is placed in the middle of the runway, not at the start.

- if I add an AI aircraft "start from parking hot", no matter where the parking is, it will correctly roll to the the runway threshold and take off from there.

 

The choice of airplane doesn't seem to change anything.

 

So there is a discrepancy, and mainly, it is not expected to start the take-off from the middle of the runway. The required rolling length to take off may vary, and even if that particular runway is long, safety would have such aircraft use the regular threshold ;)

 

I'm providing a basic test mission, with

- the user airplane showing the misplaced take-off starting point (start from runway)

- two AI airplanes near the middle of the runway and near the threshold.

 

Those two AI airplanes correctly roll to the threshold.

Likely this will be ignored too, as they've washed their hands of NTTR.

But there are so many parking and spawning errors throughout the map, its stunning. At Nellis, the entire Golf live weapons parking row, are backwards. They should point East, not West.

The south/west ramp is the Green Flag ramp (155 on) and only has the 4-5 spots facing East. The EOR just east of that, isnt parking, but roll through spots.

 

When they moved on and left it unoptimised with so many errors, its another sign of the lack of follow-up they do.
