Delayed to start/Internal Fuel Weight

[Slant]

So, there used to be a bug where internal fuel weight is kept in the FM when someone got that "Delayed to start" message. Is that fixed or even known? It's been around for a year and it just happened to me again. It's a bit annoying to start with a weight calculation fo 32000 pounds of fuel instead of 16000... I wouldn't mind if I actually got 32000 lbs, but this only concerns the weight.

Thats more Supercarrier problem, please post it with track here

I've already repored several bugs with the F-14 and SC (not this one, though), and ED don't seem to give a sh*t about it, never got an answer.

It’s not a super carrier bug. It’s been a thing since the Stennis

Bumping to ask for resolution on this bug.

 

Just had another flight where this happened and I was barely able to launch off the cat with only a "light" 3-2-2 loadout thanks to the extra 16k lbs of weight.

If you stay in the slot and wait for the spawn, there will be no issue. Apparently, changing slots after getting delayed causes the weight bug. 

The same thing used to happen on the Stennis but HB fixed that.

Any update to this problem? This still persists as of the latest OB.

Quick question: how are y'all verifying that the weight has been doubled? The ED loadout menu? one of the kneeboard pages?

[sLYFa]

The ME/loadout menu doesnt show it but its very noticable in terms of flight performance. E.g. the amount of thrust/airspeed required to maintain level flight with 15 AoA in landing configuration. At 54klbs aircraft weight it should be around 140kts. With the bug its something like 155kts which means the actual aircraft weight is above what its supposed to be.

Thanks, we fixed this several times, but for some reason it keeps coming back.

We'll take another look.

[The_Tau]

Unfortunately the bug is back. 

Delayed flight = got extra 10k lbs,

not delayed guy from flight was fine, but whole our division had vastly different performance...

Can anyone confirm if this is fixed? Sometimes this plane feels like its not performing at all like it should. Ive been flying it since day one a few times a week at lest and I got the delayed start message today and the plane felt like it wasn't performing well at all.

Thanks!

This sounds very similar if not identical to another thread in this section titled "Carrier Spawn: 'Delayed Flight' adds excissive weight to FM, with tracks and mission to reproduce"

IMO it is currently broken. I have mitigated the issue for now by having all F-14s spawn on the supercarrier catapults in my mission. IE "takeoff from runway"

Typo

Im going to run a few test but Im 90% sure this is still a problem. Flying online TTI servers I was landing at ~150kts on speed with an empty aircraft and 800lbs of fuel. 

Thanks
