astazou Posted September 23, 2020 Author Share Posted September 23, 2020 Hello, Just to say, the problem is still here in the last patch (2.5.6.55363) : I don't understand, you got time, I gave you solution, how can I find motivation to test/report more if you don't take the solution I'm giving you...

Nealius Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 I don't get why it keeps breaking. It's been an on/off bug since the Harrier first entered EA years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harker Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 I wasn't aware of that fix. Until it's fixed officially, I'll mod it myself and I'll let my squadron know about it too. We spend enough time behind the KC-130 for this bug to be annoying. Thanks for posting the fix. The vCVW-17 is looking for Hornet and Tomcat pilots and RIOs. Join the vCVW-17 Discord.

dorianR666 Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 I don't get why it keeps breaking. its in a massive text file (currently 6303 lines) which is modified with every update. so its probably due to poor merge management within whatever version control software they use. anyway, thanks to astazou for finding the solution. ill add it to my personal patch set...

Nealius Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 But if they didn't modify the wing_tip_pos line then why would it keep changing during merges? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dorianR666 Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 But if they didn't modify the wing_tip_pos line then why would it keep changing during merges? maybe something like: branching off when the incorrect value is in the main branch, incorrect value gets fixed in the main branch, the feature branch with left over incorrect value gets merged into the main branch - and the dev fails to properly resolve the collision. we should stop spamming in this bugreport though.
