investigating Engine RPM stuck at 210% after getting shot

[FalcoGer]

I got shot in engine #2. I shut it down by pulling the power to off, then I hit the engine 2 fire button and the fire extinguisher #1.

I flew back to an airfield and wanted to repair. they wouldn't let me repair with the APU on. I turned the APU off after applying external power. They still wouldn't let me repair.

I turned everything off. And still nothing. Engine page said 0% everything. but external view said 210% engine RPM.

had same thing happen, different percentage %.

yep same her got shot in engine1 made it back on one engine turned everything off. But on F2 view it said 210 % RPM 100 Tork and there a hizzing/whining sound coming from the engine.

@FalcoGer, after the same response all these times, you know a track is needed correct?

[FalcoGer]

If you want the track file from a 5 hour multiplayer session then tell me where to find it and up the upload limit on the forum to like 50GB and I'll send it.

I told you what the problem is, other people even confirmed it. It's your job to fix bugs, not mine. If I encounter a bug and I get the save track button, I'll happily save it for you. I just want to enjoy the sim. I do not get the track save button on multiplayer though. So no tracks for you, I'm afraid.

I had something very similar happen to me last week - again with a complicated, long and therfore usleless track. I am trying to replicate in short track. If anyone else manages to grab one, it would be appreciated. 

[jayst0r]

Yes I will lookout too, my previous track was several hours long unfortunately, as I was Afk for a bit....

I experienced this as well, wasn't able to shut down the engine at all. I simply switched to another bird.

Track file: http://hoxdna.org/dcstracks/PVE Syria---by Stix-20220320-133755.trk

I get shot up somewhere on a hill, then RTB with one engine, and then I could not shut it off.

@BIGNEWYIf the track file doesn't download for you, please go to http://hoxdna.org/dcstracks/ and download the "PVE Syria" track file from the file list.

I had a funny moment of the engines keeping running after I shut off both, one of which was a shot up one. The rotor would spin, I could even take off again with no engines running. Just to test it I defueled the aircraft to 0% and it would still be going.

I was hosting that mission but it was like 4 hours. I did stream it on twitch though so if you want a video I can probably upload that to youtube or something.

 being shot with #2 engine out message, landed FRIENDLY airfield, shut down all engines, apu and rotors completely stopped.

repair not possible with message "no can do- shut down engines"

 

tried even a cheat shutdown... no change.

there is a slight audio that remained on, even with BATT off

Hi, 

if by any chance you have a track replay of the event please attach it, we do have some fixes coming already for the repair process so hopefully it will be ok for you in a future patch

thanks

trk file is too big unfortunately to post here. have a hard time reproducing to be shot in the engine and not in the face .... LOL

Here are two track files for a similar bug. 
Server is myself as Pilot, Persian.... is the copilot gunner's track. 

on the second flight, we got shot up and had the left engine fail. after flying home, it showed oil press and temp after everything was shut down. could not request a repair. 
Also at the beginning of each flight we had to mess around with the laser util page to get it synced.

Got same, Engine 2 out by enemy fire and rotor RPM went up and never went down and damage engine was unable to shutdown and rotor still going on high RPM. I just put it on account on incomplete/missing damage model yet.

This has happened a few times while online . 

Land with damage engine will not shut down . Rotors keep spinning . 

Also outside view may show rotors have stopped . But inside cockpit sound of rotors and engine keep turning . 

[Rongor]

Multiplayer, multicrew, I was the PLT. we got our left engine damaged, RTB'ed.

After shutting everything down, even battery, repair still didn't work due to alleged engine still running.

Just skip forward to the last 5 minutes on this 166 MB trackfile...https://ufile.io/o3vzxw7b

Had the same yesterday for the 2nd time.  It's quite disappointing after flying the bird back to a base with a single engine only, then struggle to shut off everything with that shaking cockpit and then finally... you find out that you can't repair it due to an engine still mysteriously spinning.  Hopefully there's a fix for both issues soon!

Been trying to reproduce this today, not had any luck yet.
