| Summary | 0005773: Different and hardly predictible behaviour of planes when alt < cruisealt | ||||
| Description | When alt < cruisealt it seems planes do not behave the same way as when alt>cruisealt. More precisely, it seems that maxPitch/maxBank = 0 when alt < cruisealt The behaviour then suddenly change when cruise alt is reached. It seems to be related to the landing sequence being triggered by alt<cruisealt https://github.com/spring/spring/blob/develop/rts/Sim/MoveTypes/AAirMoveType.cpp [[ if (distSq <= radiusSq || (distSq < landRadiusSq && localAltitude < wantedHeight + radius)) { SetState(AIRCRAFT_LANDED); owner->SetVelocityAndSpeed(UpVector * owner->speed) ]] Maybe consider switching from a single cutoff = cruisealt to a more nuanced behaviour between a landing (no bank, no pitch) behaviour and a cruising (pitch and bank allowed) depending on the % of cruisealt reached ? Another possibility would be to set the cutoff lower so that statechanges won't be spammed on small alt variations around cruisealt. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | Land/takeoff a plane (non hover) Sometimes when getting too low/close to ground on ground slopes | ||||
| Additional Information | No need for a replay as it is easily reproductible, but in case you'd be having troubles, the behaviour is pretty obvious on ba:test. | ||||
