Kiseki_Yu Posted September 4, 2023 Posted September 4, 2023 In the second mission, after I drove off the MIG and was about to go back to CAP, suddenly the engine shut down automatically. I don't know what happened, has anyone else experienced the same thing?

Is there any chance you would have engine shut down key command accidentally behind some stick key?

Thank you for replying. I've bound different keys to turn off the left and right engines. I was having both engines shut down at the same time and my throttle was not in the off position. By the way, I have about 8400 of fuel left. Edited September 4, 2023 by Kiseki_Yu
Sandman Simulations Posted September 5, 2023 Posted September 5, 2023 Unfotrtunately I can't figure out what else could cause that. Please report if that tends to happen regularly in some certain situation in the campaign.

On the other hand, in mission 3, I returned to the carrier in Case III at the required time. That's when the music started (of a successful mission) and at the same time, the wingman (?) also landed on the carrier to crash me. Is this an AI bug? I'm glad the mission completion was not affected.

Usually LSO should wave you both off if deck is full or you both are coming down about the same time. I can't tell you why it didn't happen this time. Landing sequence is completely AI dependent and can't be controlled by campaign maker.

I have absolutely no idea why this is happening. Is it possible to restart the engine in the air? Edited September 7, 2023 by Kiseki_Yu

It seems that you can make air restart even with both engines shut down just by cranking. I think it doesn't work like that in real world. Check also key bindings for Engine Fire Agent Discharge. But still it shouldn't shut down both simultaneously... Did you do anything else but just flying when that happened?

But I executed DCS fast-forward, when I did CAP. I tried to use the crank to restart the engines, but nothing happened.

Time acceleration can sometimes cause triggers not to fire but I have never heard it would make your engines to shut down. I'm very sorry that I still have no idea what would cause that.
