An Irritating Bug
« on: May 06, 2011, 11:10:47 AM »
Search is fegged so I cant bring up an old thread  :o

Anyway onto the Flap bug.

While flying with your flaps down and one gets shot off, I firmly believe it should not continue to have and effect. Flying a Spit9 I had the left flap shot off, as I retracted the flaps to gain some speed after a turn, I started banking over to the right. Meaning that a none existant Flap was still having an effect. I sped past the speed at which under no damage the flaps auto retract and it banked even further, the nonexistant flap was still down. I'm pretty sure that if a flap is shot off its off and the actual effect should be the reverse, it should be losing some lift not keeping it.

It isn't a bug, the flap only got damaged and is stuck in position when it was hit. Now their might be a bug when the flap is missing yet still having an effect, but tha would be a texture bug

So instead of a flap missing graphic there should be a flap stuck in whatever position it was damaged in graphic.

I know it's not the wishlist, but +1 for damage list showing if flap is jammed or missing.
