StandingCow Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 A flightmate and I noticed in MP (might be SP as well) that when you spawn on the super carrier if it puts you right on a catapult you will have chocks installed and it is impossible to remove them and you can't unhook from the cat either. 1 5900X - 32 GB 3600 RAM - 1080TI My Twitch Channel ~Moo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AG-51_Razor Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 Myself and several of my squadmates have experienced this in MP missions as well. Fairly annoying as the only way out of this is to try to choose a different slot. It is also curious that this regularly occurs when there are quite a few open slots on the carrier deck for a "ramp start" plane to spawn onto. 1 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milky991 Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 (edited) I have a track of this fault to put up however it is 33mb from a multiplayer session the other night. Is there a way to clip Tracks? I have trawled the Forum and cant find anything. Edited February 1, 2021 by Milky991 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ED Team BIGNEWY Posted February 8, 2021 ED Team Share Posted February 8, 2021 no way to shorten track sorry. You can use a cloud service like google drive to link a track. But the shorter the better for debug purposes, and please not unofficial mods as we can not use them on dev builds. thank you Forum rules - DCS Crashing?

Skysurfer Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 I have seen this happen in MP to a buddy. Why does it even spawn you on the cat with chocks in the first place? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dangerzone Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 Confirming we've had this occur numerous (with numerous players)on MP as well with the FA18. (Not sure if it affects the F14). The workaround is to choose a different slot (or go to spectators) and then choose the slot again because there's no way to remove the chocks and if you take off with them - things don't bode well... @Milky991 - if you're able to update a track that would be great - I have my track recording turned off, but my track files would be just as large I would imagine (if not larger - I spend more time than my wife realises in DCS multiplayer when I'm on) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AegisFX Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 The trackfile is too large to upload, however: I spawned on carrier in parking spot cold as per mission norm. This first "life" went normally. Upon death and respawn I was spawned into the front left catapult. Launch bar was connected, but plane was cold. wheel chocks were in place. With engines on or off, I received message "unable to comply" when asking ground crew to remove chocks. catapult crew also did not acknowledge my presence, and one yellow shirt was standing idly on the catapult rail.

AG-51_Razor Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 Big Newy, I am curious. How would a track file possibly help the team with this issue? It is a situation that seems to only occur randomly and cannot be reproduced at will. Having a track file of it when it happens doesn't seem to be much more useful than a simple screen shot unless there is something more to a track file than I am aware of. I would think that it would be relatively simple for ED to just make it so that an a/c assigned to a "Ramp Start" cannot possibly spawn on any one of the 4 catapults, just as an a/c assigned to a "Runway Start" would never spawn on the ramp. What am I missing? Please do not take this post as anything but a real interest in learning something new about this awesome module.

AegisFX Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 @BIGNEWY This should be a more reasonable track file. 162nd vipers server on stable. loaded in, autostart, ran off the edge. 1st respawn was on cat with chocks. went ahead n left to put it up. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1JptMeit4Mb8e5p8YA8qLQd7K-hNgPpIu/view?usp=sharing Owned: Ryzen 3900x, MSI AMD 470x mobo, 32gb 3200MHz ram, Gtx 1660 Ti, 970 Evo Plus 500GB, MsFFB2, TIR5, TMWH+18c Stick, MFG Crosswinds, Buttkicker/SSA, WinWing F-18C .

SteveM10 Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Any update on this issue? It always happens when you respawn on a carrier in an F18 and you do not change your spawn slot. It does not occur when you first start your mission, only when you have restarted after being shot down or crashing. And it only seems happens in multiplayer missions. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stearmandriver Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 It's related to cold starts, if that's helpful. If the slot is set to warm start, you'll still spawn on the cat but will not be chocked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hiob Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 somehow relatable. what sense would it make to have a cold bird on a cat... annoying nevertheless...

Sharkku Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 Steps to reproduce: 1. Spawn in cold start Hornet on the Supercarrier in multiplayer server. 2. Take off, then die somehow. 3. Respawn without going to spectators in between. Hornet will spawn on the catapult, attached, with wheel chocks applied and non-removable. (This bug is especially annoying on the server I play, since it has persistent and limited fuel and weapons. If you spawn, you have to de-fuel and de-arm before going to spectators, otherwise the fuel and ammo will be lost, and you will become impopular amongst your fellow pilots for wasting resources. De-fueling a fully fueled Hornet takes quite a while.) 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FalcoGer Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 (edited) Sometimes you get placed in a cold jet on the catapult, hooked in and with the wheel chocks on. Sometimes even on catapult 3 or 4, blocking the landing strip until you started up. In the F18 I was placed on the catapult on multiple occasions (multiplayer) and the wheel chocks are on. Asking the ground crew to remove them results in an "unable". Saluting results in the deck crew signalling ready but then nothing happens, even at full throttle. You can not unhook yourself from the catapult in anyway. So now you're stuck on the catapult forever until you get a new jet. You should not be placed cold on the catapult. If you're placed on the catapult (hot only please) it should not be with chocks on. There should be an option to abort the launch at any stage and have the crew unhook you.

Dr. Anti-Vehicle Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 I know this is annoying but the workaround is when you respawn, make sure to return to spectator before selecting a new slot. That way you won't spawn on any cat. IIRC I was able to remove the chocks after unhook the launch bar. You can try that too if you don't wish to return to spectator first.
