No.23_Triggers Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 (edited) Flying on the J5 Flugpark server (a Flying Circus Server) I noticed a pretty serious game-breaking bug: My wingman (US213_Hall) spotted an aircraft taking AAA fire at some distance to the north. As he was fixated on the plane, it suddenly vanished into thin air. The flak continued to fire at the spot where the plane was, and we watched as it drew nearer to us. For 3-4 minutes we were scanning and looking for the aircraft - we could clearly see its route by the flak shooting at it. When we saw nothing, we decided to ignore the flak and looked for other targets, quickly spotting a flight of 3 planes roughly 9km away - so, not a problem with spotting ability. However, a few seconds after spotting the faraway planes my wingman was suddenly attacked by a Fokker D.VII F. I turned to help him and during the dogfight I saw a second Fokker D.VII F appear out of thin air, point-blank behind me. These two D.VII Fs were flying together, and could see each other, as well as us, perfectly fine. The previous map on the server had displayed 'Server Overload' messages, but the map in which this took place did not. Here is a video of the track recording, which also shows the aircraft appearing out of thin air: Four of my squadron mates have also experienced this bug, and each time the 'invisible' plane has been a Fokker D.VII F. I don't know if this is relevant or not. Some players have also reported that this bug may affect the Albatros D.Va. One of my wingmen has also seen this in the WW2 side of IL2. I've asked the Flying Circus community to mention any encounters they may have had with this bug, and to include what aircraft types they noted to be 'invisible'. I'll add a list of names to this post once I have a few replies. I can provide the track file if it's needed. Cheers. List of players who have reportedly encountered this bug: (Player Name - 'Invisible' Aircraft Type) US213_Talbot - Fokker D.VIIF US103_Hunter - Fokker D.VII (Unknown if 'F' or Regular) US213_Hall - Fokker D.VII F J28w-Broccoli - Not Specified (Flying Circus) SeaW0lf - Not Specified (Flying Circus) 1PL-Husar-1Esk - Not Specified (Flying Circus) No.332_Cathoair - Not Specified (Flying Circus) E69_Geramos109 - Yak (Unspecified type) (IL-2 / WW2) Edited November 20, 2019 by US93_Larner 2
