MP: No Refly After Finish Flight

[Chill31]

I only have this problem on multiplayer.  I fly my mission and when I hit finish mission, it goes back to the map screen.  I can select a new plane and then hit start.  After that, it takes me back to the last place I was on the map with no cockpit or plane.  I am unable to get flying.  If I exit the server and come back, I can fly another mission, but each time I am required to exit and return in order to fly more missions.  Does this happen to anyone else?  Thanks!

Thanks for checking in! I have the same problem in ROF, so I wonder if it is hardware related.

Here is some more info on this.

 

I have checked it with trackIR on and off, and it does not seem to be affected by that.  If I take off and land safely, I am able to refly.  If I crashland and survive, I can refly.  However, if I bail out or I crash, the camera goes to external view and when I finish the flight, my black aircraft icon stays on the map.  When I hit start to fly again, my camera goes to the last place I crashed/bailed out and stays there regardless of what view buttons I push.

It seems to be related to whether or not my engine is damaged

I also just flew a mission and landed at an airfield that was not allied, but on my side of the lines.  I turned off the motor and my only option was "abort flight".  After aborting the flight, I tried to fly again and the camera was stuck out in the middle of a field again.  I could not start a new mission.

I tried doing the spectate trick in this thread: http://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/8381-cant-respawn-after-death-multiplayer/?hl=%2Babort+%2Bflight

 

It didn't work

And this happened in rof aswell?...when this happens does the finish flight timer count down as normal?..

Thinking back, in rof if I crash land/die and do not hit finish flight it will go to an external view eventually. It then treats it as if you are in spectator mode. To fly again it was a case of having to select 'leave spectate' or some such.

 

I'm sure this isn't your problem as described but it's odd it does this in two different titles!

[Chill31]

yeah, it is weird that it happens in both games and I'm the only one its happening to.  It makes it really frustrating to play MP

I wonder if you have a double bound key somewhere?...it's almost as if the keystroke you are using for finish flight is the same as spectate ground or something?...

[Chill31]

I will check and see. Thanks for the idea!
