Attempt to call a nil value

Post by CptLemons »

Sometimes, just after loading my PA24 Comanche 250 I get this error message and it resets the engine and airframe hours and every single component needs repairing. However, no matter how many clicks, they just don't repair.

I end up having to delete the A2A accu-sim files and restarting.

Any ideas?

Hello,

yes, at that point you need to restart the simulation. I would assume you are probably loading in too many times without restarting, it can also simply be caused by a corrupt loading of the sim, often the result of a corrupt flight save file. (the sim has a finite amount of loads so best to reload after each flight for frustration free simming in FSX. In P3Dv4 the numbers go up with how many loads but there still a finite amount of loads before it all get corrupted and messes up).

thanks,
Lewis

Thanks for the quick reply, Lewis.

It seems, even after restarting the sim, the aircraft is still completely broken - to the point that even the switches and doors aren't making a sound

Ok, got it. Saw another post on here regarding not having the A2A craft as the default flight.

Now changed it to a default plane and load in the A2A.

Thanks

Ahh good to hear, and yes you don't want to be using a complex sim as the default as it can cause load corruption of the sim.
