Author Topic: ditching is really screwed up in beta14 (Read 506 times)

As i speak guys in the ah2 arena are testing all the planes. So far we have tested the 109, both 190s, the pony, c47, and b17.

the 109 and 190d9 fall through the runway and crashed, similar to a bug in one of the previous betas.

I have not tested it myself but cobra's report says the b17 falls through the runway to.

c47 ditch seems fine but it starts bouncing as it slows down, and then on a bounce it goes up, rips its wings off (even though the only thing it comes in contact with is air) and falls to the runway and crashes.

190a5 seems fine but the wings don't rip if the plane rolls over.

only one that seemed totally fine is the p51 so far.

I'll update you as time goes on.

P.S-plane shadows are funny looking 14, like they have 2 layers.

I can vouch for that my dora belly landed somewhat fine until just at stop it CTD'd me

109 goes under

190a5 does ok but doesnt get damaged on rollover

B-17 goes groundhog as well

spits seem to be ok havent tested p51's but the guys say they are alright.

Please put it back to Beta 13 lol

Didn't have any problems ditching the D-pony on the runway, but the C-47 was a hoot! Everything looked good untill I slide to a stop, then the plane levitated into the air, did a wing over and blew up.

i think i may have found a problem with the 51d in offline.

shortly after takeoff I tipped my wings so my wing hit the ground.

the wings just kept scraping the ground as I continued flying and eventually pulled the entire aircraft into a turn which brought it to the ground in a ditch. But not a scratch on the aircraft.

think the pony may be invincible in a ditch too.
