Cannot reload landing light torches

[-0303-]

Just discovered that they exist and works as advertised. Can light them individually and the jettison button works.

Problem is the only way to get them is to set a checkmark in the Mission Editor. But then, if used, they do not "come back" either by rearming or even after repair. Of course they should be reloaded on rearm, just brakechutes gets "repacked" on rearm. Will put this "bug" forum shortly unless someone tells me I'm wrong.

I spent ages trying to get the things to work and just seen your thread about activating them in the ME. Thanks for this mate

Don't you want to land on the CV, creep up to a refueling jet, light them up and set everything on fire? Just me then.

I do now!

 

I was genuinely hoping I could 'jettison' them onto some enemy infantry.........

 

Incidentally, (and probs off topic) I've found having 10 degrees of flaps keeps the plane much more controlled & level and as yet doesn't seem to have caused any major dramas.  Keeps me more controlled for strafing / annoying T-90's and BMP-3's.

I experimented with that and found it breaks at speed. On one of the original (stickied?) I-16 threads, some guy mentions the real I-16 had ground adjustable trim tabs. If verified it could be implemented like the Bf109, adjustable in "Special".

I looked in the Mission Editor and couldn’t see how this added. In payload? Checkmark where? TIA

Hi mate, it's the last tab in the ME after selecting the plane, so not the payload tab, the one on the far right(from memory, not near pc) but any issues, Chucks guide has a screenshot showing you where
