Rolds Posted January 2, 2021 Posted January 2, 2021 The deck of the Arleigh Burke class appears to be sloped towards the bow of the ship somewhat and the huey slides forwards along it. See attached track, during startup the huey eventually gets close enough that the rotor blades hit the ship and eventually the nose of the huey clips inside the ship. DCS 2.5.6.59625 Huey slides forward on takeoff from ship.trk 1
Rolds Posted January 2, 2021 Author Posted January 2, 2021 OK So this bug is not limited to the arleigh burke it also happens if you select the ticonderoga class see this second track. Huey slides forward on takeoff from ship 2.trk
Rolds Posted January 2, 2021 Author Posted January 2, 2021 This is a bad one guys, it breaks huey operations from ships please have a look at this asap. 3
Volator Posted January 2, 2021 Posted January 2, 2021 It's an old bug, has been reported several times here, but ED has not responded so far. 1./JG71 "Richthofen" - Seven Eleven
Vantskruv Posted January 25, 2021 Posted January 25, 2021 (edited) Actually I think this is a general DCS bug, I noticed that on typically almost all boats, the helicopter slowly slides if the boat moves. I have tested all the american boats, but one boat though (not a carrier and I cannot remember its name), the chopper stands steady with no sliding at all. I think there is some type of setting, or coding algorithm, involved. Edit: File a new bug here. Edited January 25, 2021 by Vantskruv
Rolds Posted February 3, 2021 Author Posted February 3, 2021 Well its been a month with no ED response and I just confirmed the error is still in as of 2.5.6.60720 so I guess I'll bump my own thread.
ebabil Posted February 9, 2021 Posted February 9, 2021 Today I made a mission about taking off from a Arleigh Burke (part of payware super carrier pack) and land on Handy Windy cargo ship (newly added freeware bulk cargo ship). While on the landing deck of the destroyer, my uh-1 was always sliding to the wall as always. Then I thought that nothing changed. Then I landed on the handy wind, and voila.. i wasn't sliding.. How come and why this happens?

razalom Posted July 8, 2022 Posted July 8, 2022 Well July 2022 and still happening as just creating a mission with the Huey on the Tawara and as soon as it spawns it starts to slide forward
Rolds Posted January 9, 2023 Author Posted January 9, 2023 January 8, 2023 still happens on the deck of the Ticonderoga's (haven't tested other ships but I suspect it affects all ships). 2
J-man Posted April 14, 2023 Posted April 14, 2023 (edited) Honestly, every time I start this game, I spent more time debugging what broke again now, than actually playing the game. For anyone that want to use the ships heli pads until ED manages to fix this issue in 10 years time: The sliding only occurs if the ship is moving. Therefore a workaround is to have the ship wait for the player to take off before it starts moving on to the next waypoint. Likewise you can use a moving zone trigger to disable the ship ai when the player is near it so it comes to a hold independent of any waypoint actions. It is unrealistic and extra work for mission makers, but still better than to wait for ED to fix this years old bug. Edited April 14, 2023 by J-man 2
escaner Posted April 16, 2023 Posted April 16, 2023 I am back with the Huey after a long time and the second day this bug shows up. I am unable to complete a mission that requires to stay on a Tico for 100 seconds because it crashes into the hangars. I even tried pulling back on the collective, not even with that can be avoided. https://www.youtube.com/live/LGReMQe-5Uk?feature=share&t=840 Looks like the same bug that happened in the carriers with the Hornet on them sliding around. Come on ED, this is a game breaker for landing on ships: the helicopter just keeps creeping around and ends up colliding. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

shinobi61 Posted May 6, 2023 Posted May 6, 2023 Bump? i just tried to setup a spec ops night op on the Huey and its still sliding on the ships, back to other missions i guess 1
HILOK Posted October 19, 2023 Posted October 19, 2023 i confirm the issues is still present on the huey when parking on the arleigh burke's deck 1
Flappie Posted November 7, 2023 Posted November 7, 2023 I cannot reproduce this issue. If you can, please attach a short track. Heli on Arleigh.trk ---
Volator Posted November 8, 2023 Posted November 8, 2023 (edited) @Flappie Here you go, still happens on all (USN) ships. Test_Huey_creeping_forward_on_ship.trk Edited November 8, 2023 by Volator 1./JG71 "Richthofen" - Seven Eleven
Flappie Posted November 8, 2023 Posted November 8, 2023 (edited) The internal report is still valid, but I was under the impression I could not reproduce the issue yesterday. Your track proved me wrong. Thank you, @Volator. And now I need to understand why the Huey won't slide in my track... EDIT: OK I get it, the aircraft won't move if the Arleigh Burke is not moving.

Volator Posted February 24, 2024 Posted February 24, 2024 Test_Huey_ship_creeping.trk Still not fixed. 1 1 1./JG71 "Richthofen" - Seven Eleven
Gunnar81 Posted March 9, 2024 Posted March 9, 2024 Bizarre this bug has hung around for so long without getting fixed. Makes ship based ops with helos pretty much pointless in certain scenarios
Gunnar81 Posted April 9, 2024 Posted April 9, 2024 Is there a snowballs chance in Hades this might be in the patch tomorrow?
