Co-Pilot Bug
-
Hello,
there is a weird bug. There is a co-pilot sitting next to me, even if i disable it. If I enable it, another co-pilot appears modeled directly onto the one already sitting there. Is anyone experiencing similar things? In VR the co-pilot is a lot to render and the framerate drops to much, that's why I want him or better in this case her, out of it.
Thanks for the help!

This is caused by an incorrect configuration in the aircraft.cfg file. You can fix it by editing the following two lines in the file as shown below... A bug report has also been submitted to Just Flight.
[PILOT]
pilot_attach_node = "PILOT_0"
copilot_attach_node = "PILOT_1"

The thing is even with the co-pilot enabled and working as intended (?), it still loads the wrong avatar into the co-pilot's seat. Namely, the pilot avatar is being loaded and placed into the co-pilot's seat for me (rather than the co-pilot avatar which would be correct). Very strange indeed.

@Leonard-McCoy You are correct... the current configuration for the Pilot and Copilot avatar is reversed. The correct configuration is shown above in my previous post.

I just went to "Outside" view, and back to "Cockpit" view and the Co-pilot was gone. Don't know if this means anything, but it worked for me.

Unfortunately there are some oddities with how the co-pilot works and Asobo appear to keep making small changes to that (without any documentation to explain the changes). It's also not intended to show a co-pilot whilst in the cockpit view so it's a bit of a 'hack'. We'll look again to see if we can do anything to improve this feature with the current MSFS build.
