Tomcatter87 Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 (edited) I think that one's been around for a while: In cold start missions, Jester does not complete his startup sequence. He forgets the following things: - Arm ejection seat - uncage standby attitude indicator - turn on servopneumatic altimeter. I think this should not be too complicated to fix, but it would be much appreciated since it's quite annoying to switch to the back seat and have to do this stuff.

RustBelt Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 That’s because he doesn’t need them. Presumably when he flakes out on you during low speed maneuvering he arms the seat as he’s ejecting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a RIO in this simulation. 1 Win10 i7-10700KF 32GB RTX3060 Rift S T16000M TWCS TFRP FC3 F-14A/B F-15E CA SC NTTR PG Syria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RustBelt Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 No, a real person needs them, Jester is part of the game. He knows things without looking at gauges. Otherwise he would set them up correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We fly jets in this game and still need fuel, lift and our real pilot can G-lock. 1 Win10 i7-10700KF 32GB RTX3060 Rift S T16000M TWCS TFRP FC3 F-14A/B F-15E CA SC NTTR PG Syria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RustBelt Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 It’s not a real person. No more than any AI pilot. They don’t run on the same rules as the player interface. So omissions like this only come up when you hot swap with it because it never needs those switches to function properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jester acts like a real RIO, he operates his cockpit, talks to us and reacts to our requests or on his own, he can get incapacitated or killed. He's even specifically given a personality. So yes, he does need to operate these switches, because he's a simulated person, a RIO, in DCS. 3 Win10 i7-10700KF 32GB RTX3060 Rift S T16000M TWCS TFRP FC3 F-14A/B F-15E CA SC NTTR PG Syria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomcatter87 Posted April 12 Author Share Posted April 12 He also turns on oxygen, lights and propably other stuff a computer wouldn't "need". Plus the F-14 module is built in a way that you can switch seats in-flight, so it is kinda important that Jester completes his startup procedure. 2 Modules: F-14A/B | M-2000C | AJS-37 | Mi-24P | F/A-18C | A-10C II | F-16C | UH-1H | F-5E | Mi-8 | FC 3 | AV-8B | A-4E | Gazelle | Ka-50 | Yak-52 | CE2 Maps: Syria | Marianas | NTTR | Persian Gulf | Caucasus Setup: Virpil WarBRD Base & VFX | TM Warthog | Arozzi Velocita Stand | Monstertech Mount | MFG Crosswind | Cougar MFDs | VRInsight Panel | JetSeat 908 | TrackIR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
