My flights are starting off the map...?

[+malibu43 142]

I'm running everything but SF2NA merged at the April 2012 patch level. I have Stary's Germany CE tiles and trees installed, but no changes to my _targets.ini

 

3 times in the last 2 days I've started a generated Armed Recon mission in an A-10A (nation = USAF), clicked "fly", and once the mission's loaded I'm presented with blue sky and whitish horizon and nothing else. No plane. No ground. No cockpit. Can't cycle views or anything. I exit out of the mission, select "refly", and check the map. The start and end waypoints are somewhere down past the bottom left corner and aren't displayed. If I go back to the single mission screen and try a new mission, I don't have the issue. Waypoints and map are just as they should be.

 

Is this a known issue? I know I've seen some posts about this, but I thought most of them were USN or carrier related...

I get the same issue, just dont have a clue what causes it, always that bottom left corner too.....

Was there in WOV years back - is it only armed recon that has the problem? is this only with the A-10A? -

 

Used to get it with ship missions that had no defined areas.

 

Try defining more movement areas in GERMANYCE_MOVEMENT.ini - or check you dont have a really old one in the Terrain folder.

interesting to note, the bottom left corner of EVERY terrain is the 000000,000000 point. all 'places' are measured from that spot
