RV-8 in barn crash
« on: September 26, 2008, 11:16:10 AM »
Hi, this is a possible bug that I noticed a few months ago, but I just saw a post (about the bridges) that reminded me of this.

I wanted to get an RV-8 through one of those barns in the terrains, and to check if it would fit I decided to try taxying through first.  However, each time I entered the barn (I don't recall how far in I was getting, if I was getting in at all), I would crash and wind up in the tower.  I tried this two or three times, with the same result.

Again, this was quite a while ago, so it might have been fixed since them.  I don't have access to AH at the moment so I can't try it out though.

<S>

Apparently I'm in the 20th FG 'Loco Busters', or so the legend goes.

I'm not sure it's a bug. 'They' might not want you flying through those things or settings of those things are setup for ground vehicles more than aircraft.
Far too many, if not most, people on this Board post just to say something opposed to posting when they have something to say.

then it would definitely not be historically accurate...........

my grandpa has told me stories from the war of planes flying under bridges and even in one case b17s

so yes that is a problem from a historical stand point of view and I'm sure I'm not the only one that would like to see it fixed...............

its a GAME, NOT a historical representation of anything. Resemblance to WWII aircraft and vehicles is purely coincidental.

What happens in the game when you get hit in your cranium with a projectile?

I'm positive your grandpa's stories are true but HiTech for whatever reason has decided you can't do it in his simulation.
Maybe something to do with that funny coad stuff we here about every now and then.
