So I bought the Albatross D3 today, and played around with it offline. Very nice plane to fly.

Decided to go online and went into the T&T server. Watched about 15min of a very entertaining 14v14 mission. Mission ends, my game crashes. I hurry and start it back up again, and just slip back into T&T before the next mission starts. Manage to snag a Fokker, wanted the Alba D3, but was just relieved I wasn't stuck with a Pfalz.

The mission starts and the game failed to recognize my TrackIR. I don't want to fly in a hour + mission without TIR, so I'm fiddling with it trying to get it to work without restarting the game. Within a couple minutes I get disconnected from the server.

This is the first time I've played online since the patch. Was hoping that might have been helped. Before the patch I would always get disconnected within a few min of entering a server.

It never disconnects while I am in a server as a spectator, only when I actually try to play.

Pretty much the only way I can play online right now is to host, and I can hardly do that, get too much lag with more than just a few people.

This is another reason to have a join in progress. Right now, I would have to wait an hour for the mission to end to try again. If I could join in progress, I could just take over one of the AI planes.
