also had this happen to me a couple times in multi after getting into a new jet. Restart was the only fix I found for it.

I just had this problem for the first time tonight.

 

 

Multiplayer in the Blue Flag PG server, got shot down by a Hazard Perry (sigh) then couldn't get the right engine started. Left and rejoined the server to no avail.

Thank you guys, this is a separate issue, that happens after taking damage to the engine. The only fix atm is to restart DCS. We hope we can provide a fix for this soon.

I get this bug randomly. I even got it on the Case I tutorial. It seems to be a random chance that the right engine is just not functioning upon spawning in. In the case of the Case I tutorial the engine just instantly began to spool down when I hit fly. It's about one out of 20 spawns that does it and it is fixed by simply selecting a new slot (if MP) or restarting the mission (if SP).

I still get this bug. Recently I cannot fix it simply by restarting the mission anymore. I have to restart DCS completely to fix it.

I'm getting this bug. It happens to me when I get shot down and go to briefing again. It does it pretty consistantly for me. It started in a multi-player server and carried over to any mission I loaded. I had to restart DCS World to resolve it.

Got it right now again after I got hit and lost both engines on the BF:PG server.

Re-slotted into a new plane after that event - right engine not spooling (left engine starts fine, cross bleed air doesn't help for the right).

 

 

That is very unfortunate, we were hoping that it got fixed with the latest patch. Thank you for the report.

The right engine is haunted. Definitley haunted, if you ask me. :D

 

 

In all seriousness though, I'd wish we'd find something to be able to reproduce and fix it, but we don't. It is one of the weirdest bugs that keeps haunting us..

Given the randomness and rarity of this bug I can totally relate to this, being a software developer myself :)
