Debriefing Page: "FLY AGAIN" Option not working on Dora and Anton

[LeCuvier]

At the end of the mission, when the "Debriefing" page comes up, we have (among others) the buttons labelled "WATCH TRACK" and "FLY AGAIN".
Hitting "FLY AGAIN" normally lets you fly the same mission again from start. In the two versions of the FW-190 however, hitting the "FLY AGAIN" has the same effect as hitting "WATCH TRACK". So, instead of starting a new mission, you see the replay of the mission just completed.
This is quite annoying and should be easy to fix in about one line of code!

This doesn't happen on my DCS, so most likely its a User Mod interfering:

My user mods are not of the nature that would change which procedure is called by the buttons on any screen.
Still, I disabled all my mods with OvGME and I ran a Repair, and the problem still persists with the two FW-190.
I tried some more:
Bf-109: no problem
A-10C II: no problem
P-51D: It happens, and the track it shows me is total rubbish.
Spitfire: No problem
P-47D-40: no problem
Mosquito: crashed when the mission was loaded and I hit the "FLY" button. Twice in a row.
F-16: no problem
F/A-18C: no problem

In my experience "Fly Again" does indeed become "Watch Again" after watching a track, but prior to that - it works okay.

edit: I have just checked 190s, p51d and the mosquito for the problems described and I couldn't reproduce any of them.

I will do a "Repair Slow".

I will do a "Repair Slow".

The error might be in the DCS Saved Games folder, and a repair won't touch that. Try to rename it temporarily.

Right, the slow repair didn't help.
I re-named the Saved Games folder and the "FLY AGAIN" works correctly. But now the hard part is to find out which of the many folders/files caused the problem.
I don't see anything obvious in the log file pre-rename.

Yeah, that's the problem. Copying one folder by one to test takes time.
Could it be a mod?

I have copied in the main folders and the issue of this post has not come back. But now I cannot hear my in-flight conversation any more. So at this point, the cure seems worse than the disease. I have disabled Easy Communication. Searching...

Did you have speech with a clean Saved Games? If you delete the options.lua do they come back?

I renamed Options.lua and, after starting the game got a "clean" version. At that point, the "Push to talk" command was not available. I exited the mission, disabled Easy Communication and started the mission. The "Push to talk" command now works as far as showing the in-flight message exchanges on-screen, but I do not hear the spoken messages in my headset. I do hear engine noise and chatter from other flights.

Well, if you get the messages, I'd say the game's okay, while not your audio settings.

I had subfolders for various warbirds in the "Liveries" folder. After deleting these the "FLY AGAIN" worked. I have deleted these folders/files in my original Saved Games structure and this works now, no problem with speech here. Thanks for your help!

Edit:
I have now re-enabled all my mods incl. the FW-190A cockpit mod and EZ42 gunsight mods for Kurfürst and Anton, and the situation is stable. I still cannot believe that livery files in Saved Games (that I have not put there) can have such an impact on core program flow. I would have thought that this cannot happened in well-structured software but I'm probaly wrong.
