[FIXED B826] Waiting for runway to become available bug

[wild_Willie2]

Hi there,

I suddenly only get "Waiting for runway to become available" messages under build 822 while waiting for my fighters to lift of from the Shi Lang. There is no damage so there is no reason to get this message.

Something is clearly going wrong.

Save game attached.

Thanks. That's an interesting and unusual case.

One of the J-15s has somehow managed to get stuck on the carrier's ski-jump ramp (not helped by the generally high traffic on the carrier deck) and refuses to simply take off to clear the space. You can observe this if you switch to the "Air Facilities" tab in the Air Ops window.

We already have provisions for such a case dealing with runways and helo pads, but not ski ramps so far. Added and fixed, for the first post-v1.11 update.

As a temporary workaround, instruct the stuck J-15 to "Abort Launch". If this doesn't work, please open the scenario in ScenEdit mode and remove the aircraft from the ski ramp.

Thanks!

Thanks for the quick fix, you guy's are doing a great job as usual.
