Hi. The title may wrong to tell the problem; sorry. :)

 

Tonight in a multiplayer mission, while flying at 7000 meters with A-10C with autopilot, suddenly the screen was switched to another aircraft's F2 view. Surprised and hit F1 to go back to cockpit but I got no cockpit view because my A-10C wasn't in the air anymore. What?! Why?! How?! :D

 

It was like I never selected slot, got into A-10C and took off... A friend explained something about sync issue between server and me. And server decides to de-spawn me. :)

 

My setting was LAN of course...

It was weird...

The bug is that the server loses track of the name assigned to the aircraft. Happens somewhat infrequently on the VA server. The removal from the aircraft is due to a lua script we run that looks for client assigned aircraft with no name attached. This script is in there primarily to get rid of AI aircraft that people spawn when they don't own the module for the aircraft they got in. Which happens pretty often on the VA since we have every single module aircraft available to be flown. Sorry for the inconvenience, but we prefer it this way so that if someone is flying into people or otherwise causing problems, we can see who it is.

I hardly understand this. Is this my fault (flying into people) or...?

There is an annoying bug where if someone doesn't have a aircraft module and tries to spawn into that aircraft in MP, the game spawns an AI and the slot is un-usable until the AI is removed from the mission. So they created a script to using the Unit.getPlayerName() function to check if in fact the aircraft is controlled by a player and not an AI. If its an AI they run a script to automatically despawn the aircraft.

 

Their script thought you were an AI because the function Unit.getPlayerName() returned nil, which is apparently a rare bug...

The right man in the wrong place makes all the difference in the world.

Eh shahdoh we talked briefly about this during the fly in and now that some time has passed I can confirm this issue on our end too. Usually seems to happen if someone is looking in an external view or the f10 map on occasion I think.

"ENO"

Type in anger and you will make the greatest post you will ever regret.

Thanks guys. It's now cleared. :)

I think I saw this part of it tonight. I mistakenly clicked on A-10A module. After couldn't get in the cockpit, I realized and switched to an A-10C slot.

 

The A-10A aircraft spawned, made taxi and took off, flied and landed with my name. :)

 

While a subtitle was saying "Devrim took off from Kutaisi", in the same 10 secs it was saying "Devrim landed at Gudauta" :)

 

Funny...

How many rare bugs equal a whole bug?

What server was that on Devrim?

I can check it when at home (at work rightnow), but it must be Virtual Acrobatics or one of Free Flight (including Hawk!) servers.
