Planes are ALWAYS moving

Recommended Posts

Hi there.

 

How the hell can I have a plane satying still?

Everytime I place a plane in the editor, as soon as the engines are on the planes starts moving.

I tried disableAI "move" / "path", stop true - but nothing works.

 

Either on an airfield or on the carrier - but can't keep a plane still.

 

Maybe I missed a command,

 

Does anyone knows how to have them not moving?

Nope.

Well, yes it won't move, but as son as it gets some fuel, it will start moving.

Can't have a plane with engin on but not moving at all.

No way to solve this without disabling the simulation of the pilot.

If the plane was moving before the command with throttle setting above 0 it will continue to move in a wonky way.

Setting the fuel to 0 might be the more elegant solution, if you're okay with the canopy opening.

 

It's bonkers that issues like this still exist with the game being out 4 years+.

 

Always thought Jets DLC would fix most AI related issues with jets. They still can't taxi on the taxiway but instead roll all over the grassy areas, getting stuck in the trench on the main tanoan airfield.

Having 2 planes land at the same time results in them colliding with each other during the landing approach.

 

It's simply ridiculous.

 

Cheers

After the A3 development cycle I think we can say AI (infantry, driving, support, strategic, urban, maneuvering, civilian, traffic) is a legacy feature from past games and smaller audience. More expensive to design (good AI programmers dont come cheap) and not as profitable as Life RPG or DayZ style player-generated gameplay.

Have you tried placing wheel chocks?

 

Just spawn  or place close to the plane.
