You have Ditched
« on: May 27, 2007, 11:41:21 AM »
This has happened to me twice now and i think i know what causes it just need to know if anyone else has seen this

I had landed on the runway engine still on.
As i hit end sortie. i put the throttle back up to full because i always forget to.

And i got the message saying you have ditched..

So in that second it takes for the game to end your sortie i happened to put my throttle back up.. this has happened twice now.

Hope this makes sense.. If not it will teach me to post at 1am.

hardly a bug Tim.

Just kill your engine when your braking.  Then flick your throttle back to full.  With the engine off you wont start moving again.


You muppet   ;)

Well, I would call it a bug. It just happened to me today by accident.

I had landed and my plane had stopped in the middle of the runway. I typed ".ef" and hit enter... and the accidentally touched the throttle. The plane jerked forwards and then I was in tower with "you have ditched" message :furious

Exiting while moving should not be possible, or at least exiting should use the situation when the enter is pressed. No data should be taken in after that.
