reported weight problem

[kotor633]

Hello@all,

Can someone please explain the following logic to me: If I remove the external hardpoints on the Mi-8 and then click on Civil Plane in the mission editor, the previously removed weight is added back to the total weight. If I then remove the additional armor and also click on Civil Plane, then this weight is also taken into account in the total weight again.
And with the Mi-24 it's similar: If I remove the Exhaust IR Suppressors and then click on Civil Plane, the previously removed weight is included in the total weight again.

I can explain it rather simply: you've just found two bugs. I'll report them both, along with an identical Huey bug.

Many thanks for the heads up.

Wow, this hole gets deeper and deeper. AV-8B, JF-17, M-2000C, MiG-29, Mosquito, P-47D, Su-27, Su-33 and Yak-52  are also affected.

Thank you, Flappie! 
Regarding the Mi-24, I had already addressed it to Bignewy.

Yak52? There arent any pylons, armor or weapons. Is the smoke pod doing it?

Nope, this bug also affects the copilot. if you tick 'solo pilot', the Yak will be... heavier.

Does it affect the weight in flight, or is this potentially just a GUI bug?
