reported earlier DSMS stuck on loadout from previous mission

[TAIPAN_]

Steps to reproduce in multiplayer:

-Spawn in one aircraft, load weapons, load MFCD pages and DSMS loads correct

-Die

-Spawn again in same slot without switching slots, DSMS will have red items with the previous loadout

-Load all doesn't succeed in replacing the weapons in the DSMS

Steps to reproduce in singleplayer:

-Execute a mission in the mission editor including air start

-Close the mission and change the loadout

-Next mission the DSMS page can be stuck in the same way.

Track attached from mission editor test.

Hi 

this is a known issue, it happens if the prepare mission feature has been used for the mission creation. 

Try creating a mission without the prepare mission feature and you should be ok. 

thank you

Thanks, it's a mission I've used many times for training that is entirely possible I accidentally hit it being the menu item right below the fly item.

However it also happened in a multiplayer mission that was generated by DCS Liberation and put on a server.

The first flight the DSMS was ok, but after dying and respawn the DSMS had the same issue as the prepare mission.

Would that be a separate issue or can you add that to the existing issue to fix the respawn error as well?

I would need to see the liberation mission to be sure, or a track replay. 

 

Please try this edited mission to see if it helps

Thanks for that.

For the liberation mission, it will be in this track attached. 

I noticed that it gained the similar extra folders like the "Avionics\A-10C_2" folder in the track, however that folder isn't there in the track from my previous spawned flight on the same mission. Something happens during the respawn process after dying. Possibly if you respawn it may do a prepare mission to get your plane recovered back into that slot. 

I worked around it by choosing a different slot, or going back to spectators and then going fresh into the slot.

There's a similar bug in the Hornet on the supercarrier when you respawn into the same slot it puts you on the Cat with wheel chocks, then dumps you into the water when you try and launch. The workaround is the same there.

Try this 

basically what you are doing is opening the archive and deleting the avionics folder. 

I have done it here and saved as a miz.
