Hi guys!! Just have a few (three) questions here. I haven't had a chance to ask them yet, so I figured instead of posting a bunch of different threads, I'd do these in one. Here we go...


1. I fly exclusively offline (for the moment), and absolutely love the Career Beta. There is a glitch, however, and as soon as I can post screenshots, I will. There have been two occasions where I get credited for one kill twice. Basically, it looks like this...

1. 11/15/1916 plane John Doe
2. 11/15/1916 plane John Doe
3. 11/16/1916 plane James Smith

It will count the same date, plane, and pilot twice, giving me one too many victories. Is there any way to fix this, or to fix my total victory number?

2. I've noticed in Career Beta that once you advance far enough in rank, you can schedule Lone Patrols. Problem is, when I try to schedule one, it says something like, "You're attempting to schedule this mission before the following. This mission cannot be canceled." I'm too scared to click OK for fear of ruining my career, and I've tried scheduling them before the first mission of the day, and after the last, and it tells me that each time. Any ideas?

3. This one's the smallest one, but I'd like to know how to save tracks. I'll try a quick mission, and see Flight Record on the main screen, but it doesn't do anything. Any help?

Thanks guys!! Happy hunting!!!

3. You have to bind a key for recording and then press it while in the mission.

Any ideas about what? You can only schedule a Lone Patrol to occur after all the day's other missions have been flown.

Thanks, Luke. I was still confused because even if I did all the flights for the day, it would still give me that message. I'll give it a try. I'll also try binding that key. Thanks!!

No worries. smile It's probably that there is just one message that shows up on the screen when you attempt to schedule a lone patrol, regardless of what time of day it is.
