Flaps not working on multi-crew and multi-player environment

[NoGoodNews]

Whenever we are playing two persons as Pilot and WSO, flaps won't move down. 

We have checked it only happens when two players are on the same plane. Doing the normal startup procedure, when moving flaps down for take off, they won't move at all.

No matter the key combination used (nor even clicking directly on the lever in the cockpit)

the lever moves down, but flaps stay firmly up.

In standalone operations they work fine. It's only when two players act as pilot and wso.  

Is this a bug?

Do you recall for which player they appeared to stay up? Pilot or WSO? Or if viewed from another aircraft?

They appear up in external views for both players.

Is not that they appear up. Is that they do not come down (neither up) when doing a cold start.

If you jump in the plane in the air or with the engines already started (runway start) they work fine.

But if you do a cold start with both human Pilot and WSO, they don't work (nor the landing gear) no matter what you do.

You can drop them down (both flaps and gear) using the emergency handles. But that's all.

Really weird, but we have not been able to use flaps when cold starting since we had the module delivered.

Tried almost 30 times with different controls configurations.

Nothing 

Is extremely frustrating

make sure that teh WSO has the Battery override switch OFF. Happens to us yesterday as well. Forget to put it back to OFF position and with it ON (dont know if its a bug or as intended) the FLAPS wont move.

Thaank you very much!!!!  

That was it!!

For some stupid reason we had in our checklist that the WSO hat to switch the battery bypass ON as his first task, and we've kept doing that coldstart after coldstart 

Now everything is ok.

 

Thanks again and happy landings
