investigating George won't fire Hellfires after Rearm

[Sahloknir]

Hello fellow pilots,

first i absolutely need to say i love the Apache module so freaking much, she's just awesome to fly, so thank you ED!

Maybe i did encounter a bug, or maybe it was my fault, but i equipped my lovely Apache with a few hellfires to throw them on some bad guys, George was my CP/G and everything worked like a charm. After we're out of ammo, i flew to the next airfield and rearmed the aircraft. Than back to the scene, but now George won't fire! He always said "engaging" but that's about it, nothing more happened. The green square on the HUD was also missing.

I tried to switch into his seat and selected the hellfires again but that didn't resolve the issue.

Just wanted to ask if that's a known bug or maybe it was my fault and i need to tell him we're rearmed and good to go?

Thanks in advance!

I encountered exactely the same problem yesterday. It was reproduceable, both for me and a friend on his computer in multiplayer.

How do I do that? I just reproduced the problem, have a trk-file, but how do I send it to you?

you can attach it here if it is small enough, if not you can use a cloud link like google drive or drop box.

Yep, same problem here. Hellfires were working fine via George intially, then after a reload he would still acquire the target, but no constraint box would appear. Putting him on 'fire-at-will' didn't work either.

They could be fired though when I took over as CPG.

I hope, this is working...

Thanks for me the track did not replay correctly unfortunately. 

I have tried to reproduce but so far no luck. I have asked the multiplayer testing team to watch for it also

thanks

Hey,

sorry i was offline the past 3 days because of a problem from my internet provider.

So now i can finally share my 2 tracks.

Please don't judge my flying though, i was in a meeting that day and hadn't my right controls plugged in, so it's very rubbish.

In the first track you can see that i rearmed successfully but the green square on the HUD is missing. I tried a few attempts but it did not work.

On the second track though, i rearmed again, and funny enough, it worked, George did shoot the first three or so hellfires, but after that, he wouldn't shoot, he always said "Engaging" but that's about it. Tried a few other targets, flew in from different angles etc. Was kind of weird.

Hope the tracks work, and sorry again for the bad flying / landing stuff.
