I am creating some new PP6 missions. In one mission, I get a CTD every time the AI tried to drop bombs on a target. I hear a breif landing gear retract sound, then CTD

If I F6 to the B17's and crash them before the taget - the rest of the mission goes on forever with no CTD. Even if I ditch a B17 so that it can not fly but still lives in the game, no CTD.

Has anyone seen anything like this?

Much thanks,

YES IVE HAD THIS! Only its with Aladars Me-163! See my post in the tech section. I hear a landing gear retract sound and CTD! And now you are getting it... thats too weird!

P.S. Its only with the AI too!

Is it the landing gear sound you hear or bomb bay door sound?

I only ask because PP6 included sounds and I thought maybe one was buggered and could be causing your CTD's, if you can narrow it down.

SV, this sounds like the bug the 5.3 lanc had.. when it ran out of fuel under AI control i would hear a sound like you describe then it would desktop.

The doors are all ready open when it happens.

Intersting TS, I did guess the fuel amount for the mission, maybe that is it! I will test that out...

BTW: how much fuel is good for the average fighter? The average bomber?

Thanks

Sv, check your mail, I sent you the Fuel loadout that I did for Spanky. I will try and update it for PP6 and send you the new one later.

Use the P51 dangling behind as the spare fuel tank

Well it works now, it was the AI running out of fuel bug. (Thanks for the fuel chart Raider!)

Now, like ArgonV said, how do we fix that?

I remember this being talked about last year. One way to fix this for now is to be sure that you have enough fuel when you create a mission in the mission editor. If no fuel is set or it is set to 0 it would read as a full tank (I think) but that may have been the problem. Just be sure that when you create a mission that you give it the correct amount of fuel.

The Me-163 right now has a 100 gal fuel tank. How many lbs of fuel is that?

P.S. The Me-163s engine sucks gas like a bi*&h! I think the fuel time is 4-5 mins. (Or somewhere close to that)
