Try (RATL+J).

I am being able to jump to ground units but I cant come back to the A10 pit

Hi Peter,

Yesterady I made some testing with CA and A10. For my knowledge, I think when you jump once to a ground unit you are stucked there. You can chance through the different ground units by using F10 an Alt+J, but there is no way to go back to the A10 cockpit.

Well it´s still beta and maybe they are working on this kind of stuff.

For offline single playing this will be a great feature, search and attack by a plane, set a anchor position for the a10, jump to the ground units for a while, and then jump back to the plane.

The Mission "Defend Camp Yankee" will be a great example for this kind of gameplay.

Well maybe some day in the near future.

This is the way how it "works" with me;

 

If you jump into the ground unit cockpit, you will leave your aircraft control to AI (which is a feature in this beta version...). To come back again into the aircraft is possible though;

 

Click your aircraft in F10 map and press RALT + J.

 

Weakness is, that AI may do something which is not so desirable while you are on the ground. To avoid this, stay in a Hog and lead your ground troops using the map functions only.

Hi Hotfish,

are you sure, that this is working and you are going back to the A10 Cockpit and have control over the bird?

Well have to do some testing this evening, yesterday it didn´t work out this way.

Like you said, after I move from the bird to the ground unit, I highlight the plane in the F10 view and hit ralt+J, I stuck on the ground “gunner view”. I only can see the plane in the F2 view how the bird follow like you said the test waypoints.

yeap. thats what is happening to me....if you guys click on the default K50 missions (after F10), you will see different options on the map regarding the k50 information ..like units # failures ,waypoint properties, also the uncontrolled box is there..etc...when we add an a10 to it, those options will not display the same....i will like to know why and how I can just add another "player" (K50 or a10) to one those missions and have the same options on the right?...definitely. they are not the same...maybe that's why

Yoop Peter, you are right.

Made some testing, create one small mission with some ground units, typ A with a10, same mission typ B with K50.

With type B mission you can jump back to the k50 with ralt+J, it takes a while, about 6 sec,but it´s working.

With type A a10 ralt+J is not working. I find no way to jump back to the pilot seat

Well let´s wait for a patch, beta is beta.

The thing is, if in the mission you have added "client" slots for the A10C, you simple "esc" out to spectator and join the "A10C" slot. But if you are flying and want to join a tank, you loose that slot and have to rejoin another. At least that has been my experience so far...:joystick:

Hi,

 

my knowledge in this topic is very limited.

 

But what I do is simply open mission as instructed in manual (readily made or ME). I have a10c flight only (no K50s), 1 or 4 Hogs doesn´t make any difference for me. And in addition to this, "pilot can control vechicles" option is chosen in "Battlefield commander".

 

To get back into my bird, I click my aircraft (or other bird in my flight) first on the F10 map and use only RAlt + J; there is not clickable button available to jump back to the Hog cockpit. But this works.

 

For detailed explanation and proper answer in this issue you should contact ED. Sorry, can´t really help you more.

Are you sure that RCTRL+J works in you missions?...well not here...never...at least flying A10 ....only works with K50 :(
