Gazelle 2.5.1 OB Multicrew Bugs

Hello,

So today i downloaded the 2.5.1 OB update and ran into a few issues.

I found two very nasty bugs that occured in multiplayer, in a cold start Gazelle with a copilot/gunner :

- The copilot would not see the engine start and so won't be able to use the NADIR,... anything that requires gen power.

I've dug a bit further and found that both players don't have the same levels of fuel, the copilot has 0% while the pilot had a full tank. I don't know how multicrew is handled but i think that might be the problem, thought a refuel didn't work and couldn't solve the problem.

Sometimes when accesing the rearm/refuel menu, i would see the true level of fuel but it goes away as soon as it appears.

this bug does not occur when the gazelle is hot.

Here my buddy told me the engine was fully started, but for me :

- In the gazelle minigun, when the copilot spawns in the aircraft, the minigun starts to fire even thought everything is turned off.

i don't think this bug happens when the gazelle is hot and it doesn't happen all of the time, it's quite weird.

PS : That got me kicked from a server for TK x).

Anyways, great job with this update, the gazelle keeps on getting better but it's a shame i can't use it with my buddy on most MP servers at this time since they start cold.

Good evening,

Hi,

Multicrew is very sensitive about the net connection and transfert rate.

If wipers move + most lights are on in the cockpit + engine shuts down etc ... as you join, it means the server is not able to update. In this case you may have to leave the game and rejoin or even restart the server.

If I have a ping around 280 and more, I can't host a game or be the pilot.

Here are some points we checked about multicrew, hope it helps.

PS: We also noticed it's better for the guy who hosts the game to be the pilot.

Has anyone reported the inability to fire the minigun in 2.5.1 while there is a pilot and co-pilot in MC minigun gazelle?

Ran into this issue and basically called it a loss since the only reason I'd pick and fly the minigun variant is to have my friend in the copilot seat tear it up while I am flying us

Have same problem CHRISXTR3M3

You mean is not possible to use the Minigun in MP when ANOTHER TWO friends are in the pilot and copilot seats at the same time or when ONLY ONE friend is in the pilot seat, you in the copilot seat and then you try to use the Minigun?

ONLY ONE friend is in the pilot seat, you in the copilot seat and then you try to use the Minigun?

You can move the gun but can't firing even if "master arm" is ON.

Maybe key bindings?

Check this triple time, my friend as co-pilot have the same. Also in single payer when switch to gunner work ok with firing.

Uhmmmmmm , worth the report.

Thanks

Any updates about that? Is there a way to work around this? Its happen almost everytime with me and my buddy

HeatBlur doesn't have an issue with any of this or these excuses. And they have a shit load more going on in both pits at the same time

CHRISXTR3M3, we will be looking in to multicrew again after ED has implemented this feature for the UH-1 Huey, something they have announced to be working on a few months ago.
