Existing campaign issue

[Winkysmith]

Hi Pat,

 

 

I have just updated PWCG to 13.10.0, and I have immediately started having an issue with a campaign that I created a few days ago. It is an Fw-190 career, with I./JG51 and with a start date of 1/03/43. I had flown 3 missions in 13.9.0 without any trouble.

 

When I created a mission after updating to the new version, our flight took off, and immediately after takeoff, the flight lead reported "Swan, enemy attack planes spotted, 10 o'clock, engage, out". Immediately, the flight deviated from our route and just entered a large, continuous right-hand turn above the airfield. After a few minutes of circling without climbing or seeing any enemy aircraft, I quit the mission. I thought that it may have just been a once-off faulty generation, but I then generated another mission, and the same thing happened. We took off, enemy aircraft were "spotted", despite there being none, and the flight made a lazy right-hand turn 200m above the airfield. Also, one thing that I forgot to mention was that when I checked the map in both missions, there was no yellow marker to show our next waypoint. I play with map icons on, so this was indeed unusual.

 

I would have attached the campaign in question, just in case you wanted to have a look for anything out of the ordinary, but it is a whole megabyte too large.

 

 

Thanks again,

Winkysmith

 

 

Edit: I found my zip file of 13.9.0, unzipped it (sort of downgrading my PWCG one version), and the missions worked fine again. Something must be up in the files of the new update.
