Engine Flameout - Maneuvering Jets bug
« on: January 07, 2013, 11:12:38 PM »

I think I may have found a bug with Maneuvering Jets:

If your engines Flameout due to enemy fire, and you mash the special abilities activation button, your engines might reactivate, turn on Maneuvering Jets, then burn out again almost instantly.

I have reproduced this behavior twice in a Conquest.

I've been able to reproduce this bug consistently in an Eagle as well.

Ah, I see what happens - if you happen to activate the jets just as the engines are coming back online, a flameout happens. Will look into it - thanks for the report(s) guys.
