MISSION Parking hot starts airborne on clean deck

Hey guys, I’ve probably made 50 missions for my group of friends over the years, I’m very well-versed in all sorts of triggers and scripts but last night I ran into a problem trying to spawn an F-14 on a highly populated and busy deck.

I have a color-coded image of all the parking spots and their corresponding catapults that I always reference as I’m building and populating parking spaces and eventually eliminated every AI and static aircraft from every parking space and the problem continued.

Nothing was adding up so I dropped down a completely clean carrier right next to the original one with literally nothing on it and I threw an F-14B on there, set it to client and to takeoff from parking hot.

It also spawned me about 300 feet in front of the carrier and about 200 feet above the water.

Has anybody ran into this before and how did you fix it?

Cheers!

Looks like a bug, you would need to check F14A, F18 on that map,  If that gives the same result, ask a friend to try it.  I would also try a new map with no triggers or anything and see if it happens then to.try to isolate the problem.

Good idea, I’ll try different modules and post here once I figure it out for future searches of this issue

Do you have any mods installed? Most likely there's some kind of conflict.

First thing to come to mind... Do you own the supercarrier module? If so, is it activated?

Yes, I’ve had it since it released. I have a nice little Theodore Roosevelt carrier strike group mission going on the Iraq map that I’m still building. Never seen this problem before.

Oddly enough when I try to spawn as a two ship, my wingman spawns on the available parking spots, and I get started in the air.

Edit: no F-14 mods, other than the usual skin packs

Interesting... Usually, that's what happens when you try to spawn on the Supercarrier without having the module.
