DFW C.V Career - Photo recon mission bugged

[Dupxo]

Today i got my first photo recon mission for DFW C.V in career mode and it was completely bugged. At first i couldn't even start my plane from runway because the air pressure was set 250 mmHG on sea level ?. I had to manually change the pressure via Mission Editor application. After that my plane finally could move.

 

OK, i started from runway and flew to recon area. In the briefing it was stated that i should be on altitude higher than 1500 m to perform photo recon so i climbed to 2500 m. When i was in the recon area (the message pop up on the screen) i leveled my flight and I started taking photos. Message - "too far from the target", so i got down to 1500 m and again "too far from the target". I was looking via bomb-scope so i was sure that i was directly over the target on proper altitude. Even when i was on 1200 m there was a message "too far from the target".

 

The camera's film ended, mission was failed.  But there was third very annoying bug. Despite that camera's film ended there was constantly popping-up message "press WinKey+1 to mark" and "camera reload" when i press icon of camera lens, even when i leave the recon area. Because of that message i couldn't accelerate time x8 and i had looong flight to my base.

 

In summary - in single photo recon mission i spotted 3 serious problems:

 

1. The pressure on sea level was set to 250 mmHg.

 

 

2. All my photos were denied because of wrong distance to the target despite being on proper altitude directly above the target.

3. After 4 or 5 attempts to take a photo there was a message that camera's film ended but i still have icon "press WinKey+1 to mark" and there was clickable camera lens, when i click it there was message that camera is reloading. This situation was looped and i couldn't use x8 time acceleration when i was returning to base. On the screenshots below you can see that i am over No Mans Land (far away from recon area) but i still can manage my camera (despite that film ended).

 

 

 

 

I have spotted 1 minor bug:

 

1. A typo - on screen i had messages "Camera raload" and "Back to tatget".

I suppose that the day 04.09.1916 is just bugged. I started career with Escadrille N26 and when 04.09.1916 arrived it also was set with 250 mmHg pressure. Another days so far are fine.
