Tower Out-Hangar Take off Bug
« on: December 29, 2004, 03:04:14 PM »
Happy New Year....

Last few days, immediately after towering out following my landing an aircraft....the same aircraft immediately spawns in the hangar for takeoff.  

I asked on ch 200, and a few other folks reported the same event happening to them.

Tower Out-Hangar Take off Bug

When you end your flight, do you click on "tower" on the clipboard, or do you type ./ef and Enter?  Reason I ask is, if you are in the tower and hit the Enter key, the button on the clipboard that is highlighted while you are in the tower is the "H" key, it sends you to the hanger in the last plane you were in and ready for takeoff.  If you have a sticky Enter key, or accidentally hit it twice, etc. it would cause you to go right to the hanger for takeoff when you go to the tower.

This has happened to me too. However I think it was user error on my part. Usually it has to do with typing in the radio bar, then somehow my cursor gets outside the radio bar cause I'm moving too fast, then I click enter to send my radio message but instead find myself starting a plane in the hangar.

Never happens if I'm taking my time, so I'm pretty sure it's me an not a bug.

Holding the spacebar for the brakes will also send you into the hanger after towering.

Let the space bar go before going to tower. Space bar makes you spawn in hangar... when you keep it pressed from breaking.

AHHHHHH!! That explains why when I'm in a rush (Braking hard and jumping to tower asap because a vulcher is about to get me) I respawn in the hangar.

Thanks !
