Autopilot does not work

[SCG_motoadve]

Tried different joysticks commands, different letters, different missions and Autopilot just does not work.

Letter A nothing happens.

 

Any ideas on how to fix this?

Maybe the function was deleted somewhere? is there a way to check?

 

Level autopilot does work though.

Check your keybinds in options?

I have gone to settings in game  , then changed the letter A to other letters and other joystick buttons and nothing works.

 

Is there a file where I can check this?

 This is happening with any airplane, 109, Lagg , Yak, Mig , it used to work, and I re installed IL BOS to my new computer, everything works perfect , but no autopilot.

Have you checked the difficulty setting to make sure it is checked?

[SCG_motoadve]

Yesss that did it.

 

Thanks man.

Oh! Good, I finally got something right in this game

Dave if you saw my previous post disregard.

The fact that it wasn't working properly in the public build is why I was testing my missions with the player aircraft disabled/set to AI.

It's been a while since I've used the public build so I'd forgotten that piece for a minute.

I am not sure what context you are trying to use autopilot or what you think it should do - but I think that standard autopilot in BoX does not turn your plane into an autonomous AI: it still needs to be told what to do in the mission design.  So for instance in a mission where the player plane is assigned waypoints, when you start the mission as player you will be in auto-level straight flight. Move a control and you will be in player control. Press "A" and the plane will now follow the waypoints as set in the mission. I assume that if the player plane also has other instructions - attack etc - it will do that too, but I have not checked.

 

edit: and check that you have "autopilot enabled" in difficulty settings.
