4.34.3 (U3) Dedicated Server startup always TAXI at Launch?
-
Hello! I’ve been managing this server for around ten years, and my restart procedure is to put a single aircraft far from the action, launch to ramp, close the canopy and leave it cold on the ramp.
Since 4.34.3, I have to fight the clock every time as when I hit Launch, the “TAXI” option is always highlighted, and I often fail to hit the RAMP button in time before that screen is gone and I’m sitting on the tarmac in a fully powered up jet.
Can anyone please help? I reviewed my .cfg, and can’t remember any tricks in regards to this… Cheers!

no trick
the taxi is now default in order to avoid problems when people had “runway” selected
use
set g_bRampTaxiStart 1

Hey thanks for the fast answer, bro! I had googled that config setting and came up empty except for one post and not sure if it had best info… assumed it meant that players joining via the TAXI option would appear on the RAMP instead of by the skirts based on what I found
As a player, I’d also want to be able to change that default to the option of my choosing, so I can hit launch as a player, too, and then just relax knowing I’m heading for the RAMP - but for the server, this is really necessary as it seems to not respect the new delay after launch for manual choice selection (or by the way the dedi runs, that passes too quickly).
Will that config setting you shared put me on the RAMP with a cold jet? That’s my goal here - like I clicked RAMP after launching. Thanks again!

if you miss the ramp option, it will put your server hot on the ramp
just click ALT + I when you enter, that will shut down the engine and you will be cold again

Thank you so much! That will do for now and for a long time!
I need to have a simple SOP with few curve balls for anyone who volunteers to help restart the server when I’m not around, and that’s good enough.
*EDIT: New SOP FTR is to push CTRL+C to close the canopy, Alt+i to kill the engines, and SHFT+ALT+Q until Main Power is off.
