correct as-is Start-up Training Mission Hangs-up @ Priming

[cdrkrotchetyusn]

Wonderful Module!

 

Called up Ground Crew, hit F6 "Start Priming Engines", Chief says "Copy", then nothing happens even after waiting many, many minutes...

So I skipped this training, went straight to "Takeoff" Instant Action.

That's all he says. They do the actions and you can start though.

Thanks, but the mission narrator seems to have wandered off to the pub...

Confirmed....after F6 'Start Priming Engines'and the Crew Chief says "Copy" there is no further response.

No....This is a 'Start Up Tutorial' once the engines are primed by the ground crew there is still a whole load of operations to be completed for start up,this is what we're saying,basically the start up tutorial is left in limbo,ie....it is not completed.

Normally, after "copy" from the ground crew through opened window, Archie should order flipping up port magneto switches (followed by Instructor's voice and yellow markers shown), then the rest of the actions should proceed.

 

Did you click the "start priming engines" AFTER the instructor's voice over ended? This mission seems to be very sensitive to clicking things exactly as mission designer wanted.

Confirmed as well. After F6 the ground crew says copy - then nothing.

 

I did manage to push past the glitch by starting the left engine. The training program then continued and I was able to finish the mission.

It looks like today's update DCS 2.7.6.13133 Open Beta has made some corrections,will checkit out.

Still an issue or fixed now?

I have many glitches with the training missions. Archie seems to skip things and the Northern fella also gets triggered quite randomly.

P-51 familiarization where it has you move the controls on left side of cockpit freezes, you can move the flashing controls all day long and the mission hangs up.  It's been that way for years.

Guys, is the start up training working for you now, if you have issues with other missions, please open a new thread for those. Thanks!

It always did work. They were using the comms menu "/" command and not radio comms menu (Ralt+/) as stipulated at the outset of the tutorial.
