...my 262 dies by auto take off.

Great work on the coding HTC. Thank you for the warning about the faulty auto takeoff too.

I really like losing 200 perks because of something that HTC can't fix. Makes me all warm and fuzzy inside.:D

I flew a jet once.  Took off, got a kill, landed.   Boring!

Powell: Yes Rock.
Rock: Well that's where I got it, he's my son.
Powell: Really Rock, well I'd like to meet him.
Rock:  No ya wouldn't.

Roy,
I doubt it's the coding.
Either you took off towards a mountain, your throttle wasn't at full, or your joystick spiked.
Test it offline.
I've never seen auto-take-off fail.

If you need auto-takeoff, maybe you shouldn't be flying the 262 yet.

Seriously...

More likely he took the plane off got a good climb going and then hit auto climb...
can be deadly in a 262....

There is a bug somewhere in auto takeoff...  I too have had takeoffs in several planes from typhs to goons to 190's botched by what feels like a stuck left wheel brake.

I posted this long ago in bug reports but it still exists.

can't force its appearance either

You gotta love how everyone makes excuses for the devs.

Even if those excuses are stupid as hell and make absolutely no sense (I was using a 262 people...don't you think I checked mountains, etc before taking off? what are you people retarded or just plain in denial that AH is a buggy game?).

I think the devs just need to fix the bugs in their game before they start adding anything else.

And yes, I used auto-takeoff.

I was told it worked. Guess I didn't know Ah was full of it. My bad.

I wouldnt know if theres a bug in auto takeoff.  I have never even tried auto takeoff.  It defeats the purpose of pretending Im flying  :D

If there IS a bug in auto takeoff Id say get rid of auto takeoff and bug problem solved :cool:

Well I might be out of line here...

But auto take-off ??

Come on..

I've discovered that ANY time you fly a perked plane your going to die very shortly. It's "Bad Mojo" bad "vibes"...

But to take off a perked plane WITH TRAINING WHEELS ???

MY GOD MAN, HAVE YOU NO SHAME ????
