[SOLVED ]Plane causing connection problems?

Hello,

I made a katyusha thingy that instead of rockets it fires modified Yak9 planes that i renamed as "V1". This V1 is a stripped down version of the yak9 without propeller and landing gear, and it runs on a rocket engine (a modified katyusha rocket engine). The vehicle works well and i avoided the "too many statemarks" error but a new error came up.

Whenever a player other than the server host fires the V1, the plane always appears where the launcher was originally placed, at the start of the round, and not from where the launcher is actually located at the time of the launch.

Furthermore, after a few seconds in the air, non-host players get a "Warning! connection problem" message and the game freezes until the player exits the V1.

If i REM out the engine, the game works fine for everyone, and the V1 launches properly and doesn't cause network issues. Its the engine that causes trouble and i dont know why.

It has all the necesary networkable infos

any ideas?

perhaps thats why the KatyushaRocket_Engine has no network info in bf42

try rem out the netinfo on your engine if you have any or put in some if you dont and see what happens

It seems to always be the NetworkableInfo things that cause all of the PCO issues. Though I never have issues with them [not once so far], I have seen a lot of threads here about it.

Whatever, I'm just ranting again.
