[BUG] Helicopter pads stop loads at 50% in Survival Mode

[JeanDeaux]

This doesn't happen every time, but while playing Survival modes aircraft on the helicopter pads will frequently only prep aircraft to 50% and forever stop; especially with the Osprey. Sometime it's while getting combat hits, sometimes it's not; I've not been able to identify an event that triggers this.

Moving them to another location sometimes resolves this, but the deck is usually full, combat is intense, and there's not the time to mess around with this issue.

And no, I'm not accidentally clicking on the craft and interrupting the process.

Hi, welcome to the game. The TDLR is:

It's a known collision bug with the loading crew, it's been in the game since launch, over 6 years ago, and the dev is mostly working on their next game so it will probably never officially be patched, sorry.

There was a mod that fixed it, but that mod broke at some point. So there's not really a solution today.

Ah, I just have that last achievement for 30 mins in Admiral survival so that makes it a bit harder to get there.

[IAmSquidget]

It does, but the 30min survival is still very doable with some practice, GLHF!

Ignoring known bugs for 6 years? Not sure my support will extend to the next version when yours doesn't seem to support this version. Good luck.

Shrug. Small game, small publisher, not unusual for indie games. Some stuff got patched, just not this particular thing. Shame that's a deal breaker for you, there are some really good indie games out there if you can tolerate some jank.

My first few games were outsourced which did cause issues downstream due to lack of control or even having the studio exist into the future.

My latest games are in-house and CD2 is also completely in-house, take a peek at the discussions on Angola’86, same issue in the past but no more.

Thanks for all the support

To be fair, it is a very small issue which can easily be ignored by not loading your dual blade helicopters on the middle pad. I don't remember ever having this issue elsewhere or on the left or right helicopter pad.
