Tango Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 Hi, Was messing around with the turbo gear earlier, but couldn't get it to work. To check that I could in fact start the engines, I had the ground crew re-configure for rotor. I could successfully turn #1, so aborted the start by pressing the STOP button. No fuel was introduced into the engines, so you would think this would be OK... I tried to start the turbo gear and found I had no ground crew... The door was open, etc.. I shut down the aircraft ... still no ground crew. So... I tried to re-start the engine - nothing. Even the START light would not illuminate. Why did I lose the ground crew, and did I destroy the engine or is this a bug? In the end, I had no ground crew, was unable to start EITHER engine, so had to request a new aircraft. Best regards, Tango.
bumfire Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 Something similar happened to me, I landed to get more ammo and then I took off but I forgot to get more fuel, so I landed again, probably withing 2 minutes of taking off and the ground crew wouldnt speak to me :( the tower could and did, but when I set the radio to ground crew and selected refuel they werent saying anything. Only when I took off and then went back into battle and got shot down and respawned and took off and then landed again did the ground crew want to speak to me.
STP Dragon Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 This also happend to me. You only have to takeoff (the text "xxx taked of from xxxx" have to appear) and land again.

ED Team USSR_Rik Posted August 14, 2009 ED Team Posted August 14, 2009 I tried to start the turbo gear and found I had no ground crew... The door was open, etc.. I shut down the aircraft ... still no ground crew.. Did you wait enough time for the turbine full stops? Please, attach track file.

Tango Posted August 14, 2009 Author Posted August 14, 2009 Hi, Yes. I was also unable to crank the engines - they didn't want to start. Does the track get overwritten? I didn't explicitly save it. If you let me know what I should look for, I'll see if I can find it and will send it over. Best regards, Tango.
