not a bug George AI menu not available in CP/G seat

[16th Widowmakr]

I have not recently updated or changed any settings but the George AI menu is not available in the CP/G seat any more. I can access it (L/CTL+V) in the Pilot position but not in the CoPilot and I have no idea why! I already did a full repair of DCS world also.

Try C to request control first, then try the George menu

If you used same keyboard combination for both positions, go to CPG tab and check what happens when you press CTRL+V. If nothing happens, click on keyboard column and press restore to defaults.

What's that got to do with AI menu?

I have no problem bringing up the george pilot menu when in CPG seat. Might try to look into control setting again.

Its allowed the menu to appear for me when I've had that issue, was worth a try.

As Admiki made me doubt my own sanity  I just tested it in current OB version, no flight controls attached. I've always had to do it this way and assumed it was intended. First noticed in a training mission way back. This was what I just did:

Loaded a mission, choose cold start Apache

Autostart, wait until finished

Ctrl V brings up George menu

Press 2 to jump to CPG

Ctrl V does nothing

Note cyclic is in flight position

Press C, cyclic stows away

Ctrl V now brings up the menu.

If you have GEORGE AI AUTO HANDOVER de-selected in the Special options, you will need to press C to give him the controls any time you switch to the CPG seat, since George can only respond to AI flight commands if he has aircraft control.

If you enable the auto handover in the Special options, George will automatically take the flight controls when you jump into the front seat.
