Query - repair in hanger bug?

I had an interesting experience on Burning Skies WW2 server yesterday and would like to query a possible bug I encountered on the Normandy map.

 

I landed a damaged Spitfire at a blue airfield, taxed and parked in a hangar and then went through a repair. Once the countdown finished and the repair cycle began, I was lifted through the ceiling of the hangar (I passed through it without collision). However, once the repair cycle finished I was unceremoniously dumped onto the now very solid roof of the hangar. See the attached video:

 

 

 

I have a track file but am unable to upload it with this post - I imagine it's because it's 89mb (it covers several flights). When I try to attach it I get the message:

"Your submission could not be processed because a security token was missing.

If this occurred unexpectedly, please inform the administrator and describe the action you performed before you received this error."

I have tried re-creating this offline via the mission editor but I am struggling a little to damage the aircraft and get the ground crew to respond and carry out a repair.

 

Anyone else seen anything like this or able to test /recreate better than I?

 

Many thanks, Bounder.

 

 

PS: If nothing comes of it I hope it provides entertainment as it gave me a good laugh!

[edit] fixed spelling error, cheers.

I think someone posted this before, so it should be known to ED. Maybe it was in Nevada though, not sure. Anyway, one of the more amusing bugs. :)

When a Yank misspells hangar as hanger... oh well, that's kind of expected ;). When an aviation-oriented, native Brit (I presume) does it three times in a single paragraph, King George V and Brigadier-General Henderson are rolling in their graves :D.

 

On more serious note, though, the bug appeared and was first reported on Nevada map after 2.1.0 was out I believe. Don't know when it creeped to Normandy map, might as well been there from the beginning but nobody noticed it early. Not much we as users can do at this point, apart from rearming/refueling/repairing only on open aprons.

It's reported, almost two months ago;

Yes, definitely had a good laugh :megalol:

Happened to me last night as i Demo'd Normandy to a friend. Good for a few chuckles indeed...

 

I always did wonder... why does the plane elevate during repair anyway?

Simple. If you don't have any gear left or only a part of it, you don't want to have the gear stuck in the terrain when the gear appears, so the ground chief is lifting you up.

It's kind of funny. I had this happen to me in 1.5.7 sp. I landed my M-2000C, went into a hanger, called for a repair and the same thing happened. I was dumped on top of the hanger and promptly rolled off and damaged the plane once again when I hit the ground. :P The ground crew had to be mad at me. :lol:
