Does your B.A.T. 3.7.2 - WAW show the same problem around Rogozarski IK-3 ?

When I ride on IK-3 as scramble (ground start) missions , I cannot remove its chocks and never take-off.
But AI's IK-3 can take-off normally after removing chocks.

And on other planes, chocks set / remove operations are OK by me = player.

No error logs about IK-3 or chocks.

I've checked non B.A.T. game --- 4.12.2m + SASModAct5.3 + AI flyables + Engine mod 2.8.14w --- same result.
Only the set of "IK-3 + player" shows the same trouble.

Any ideas ?

Sure that it's the chocks and not just the brakes locked up?
You can hit the brake key once to try.

No problem here.

Jump in, turn on engine, set flaps, rev up to roll, no problem.
The HUD mod shows nothing unusual on spawn. no [chocks] or [breaks], just the [gear] for deployed gear as it should be.

Umm.... How about enabling Chocks mod in conf.ini ?
It looks like related to Chocks mod part of Engine mod classes.

Code: [Select]

[Mods]
PALShowChocks=13
or 11, 12 might bring the problem.

Some exceptions (simple mesh rendering codes ?) might be "catch"-ed and subsequent processes skipped ?

"PALShowChocks=1 / 2 / 3" looks safe.

Ah... I'll look into it by myself.

I have PALShowChocks=1

I've figured out why this trouble occurs.
Next Engine mod 2.8.15 western update will fix it.


* backgrounds
IK-3 and some stock aircrafts (with Retractable landing gears) might have a minor 3d bug around gear animation java codes / 3d hier mesh structure / gear clip hooks / FM values.
When they are spawned to a scramble mission , their main landing gears (left+right) are a bit floating from the ground.
My "Insert chocks just in this time" chocks mod codes with PALShowChocks=11/12/13 setting makes the floating position kept for them.
And Hotkey input decision part (from stock codes) checks all 3x wheels touching to the ground to change Chock Set / Remove status.
So ..... with those overlapped reasons, only players cannot remove Chocks on IK-3 with chocks mod's PALShowChocks=11/12/13 setting.
