Minigun Variant borked.. multiple problems for (OB 2.8.6.40166)

[hannibal]

on 3 separate PC's all with individual accounts..

 

started a dedicated server (PC #1) with helicopters

on PC #2, start DCS in Single thread and joined helicopter multiplayer mission hosted on PC#1

on PC #2 (as pilot), jumped in a SA342 in hot start. and then flipped the master arm switch UP

on PC#3 i also join the multiplayer session.

successful joined approved buddy request from PC #3 which is also running DCS on single thread.

on PC #3 (as gunner) i look at the pilot instruments, and i see the master arm switch is still DOWN

on PC #3 (as gunner) mapped joystick to the minigun and it does not slew the minigun. when i press LAlt-C, the minigun moves momentarily but stops after 10 seconds.

things just dont work on multiplayer..

i believe there are both control schema problems and multiplayer sync problems. i shared my track file

i dont have as much problems in single player (create fast mission). in single player it runs pretty good, except for the minigun not being able to slew properly with a joystick.. (the mouse works good). in single player if switch master arm on, and i change position, i can see that master arm is on, but not in multiplayer..

also, it would be nice if the minigun had a lil more vertical traversal range (up down)
