Reload not working any more

[[DBS]steveiy]

I find that it is no longer possible to reload the turret guns after the first clip has run out.  I have tried binding this action to different keys and the joystick with no success.  I have just taken update 2.010, don't know if that's significant.

read the specifications load out section on the particular bird your flying. as most russian planes don't have a reload they have a set amount of ammunition as it was in RL/.

It's the top turret of the He111. It should reload, have done it countless times before.

 

But if no one else recognises this as a problem then I'm probably doing something completely lame X-|

Which He-111 version were you using?  I went in and tested them both - one version has multiple drums and they reloaded just fine for me.  The other one seemed to have some sort of continuous/belt feed mechanism - it lasted a really long time (so much so that I had to go in later and check to make sure I didn't have unlimited ammo on), but once it finally ran out it would not reload (which makes sense to me - it's probably just out of ammo).

 

On the other hand, in both cases there seemed to be a problem with level autopilot not really working well - in both cases the planes lost control while I was sitting in the gunner positions firing the guns (on QMB free flight with no enemies around).

It's the multiple drum version (I don't own the other He111).

 

I'm probably doing something wrong, but can't think what it might be.  It's not because I tried to map it to a joystick button, I suppose?  That's when the trouble started.

They work fine for me mate..

i only fly 111 and often use nostril gun (20mm) to straffe with and they were working fine lastnight i reloaded it maybe 30 times.

double check ya key bindings

I've got it mapped to my middle mouse button, and it works fine.  Note that there are two separate key/command bindings - one for "Reload all guns" and another one further down the list for "Reload turret guns" - maybe you don't have that second one mapped right?

O. M. G.  I somehow missed that control.  What a klutz.

 

If you want to find me after tomorrow, I'll be in a monastery.
