Title: MAJOR bug: Flying/landing bug.
Post by: Angstromicus on August 16, 2004, 09:24:59 PM
In 1.3, I've experienced problems with landing a craft, and flying an aircraft. I'll begin to speed up slowly, in the direction that the underbelly of my aircraft is pointing, and I'll keep speeding up, increasing in an exponentail rate, I'd say [My Speed]^(2 + (3 more powers every second).

Same thing happens with flying, only my underbelly can face ANY direction, even the sky, even over the lip of the map, and the equation would be [My Speed]^(4 + (7 more powers every second), and this bug happens after I "land. The equations may be a BIG understatement, because I'm traveling faster than 1e6 within 4 seconds.

I thought they said they don't care what problems are in aircraft ai.  They aren't gonna fix them...

You're exactly right Aegeis, but, assuming that you point is that they won't fix this bug, you'd be wrong in that case.

Maybe ken/nathan will fix this problem, because it isn't an AI problem.

I could be wrong but, I thought they had no interest in getting the AirCraft Class working right any further than they have.  :|

The aircraft class is not even supposed to be in, ergo they will not work on it.

to add to aircraft bugs, there is the flying underwater thing, and the deloy trick.

the deploy trick is a HUGE problem, for, if dont right, will ALWAYS give you the completely off map av, regardless of borders (doing a million damage per second).  Just make plane with underbelly facion horizon or higher.  I think that should be fixed at least, to eliminate the AV.

Why don't you just be happy you actually have an aircraft type physics mdoel in the game, rather than none at all.

Well there's always the negative hovering height bug I guess.

Negative hovering? So you float through the ground?

No, it makes you not ever lose altitude unless you use your thrusters to get down (I think).
