StugG engine bug

[zeta]

Is still around.

(or back)

It always happens the same way: you are starting your engine, then immediately you hear it making a little different sound, which keeps on looping. Not the normal starting sound.

After that you can't turn the engine on or off, and can't move.

Gear is stuck in Neutral, and the text

"Gear: N" is blinking.

I have some aditional info missed in old thread probably.

I was replicated this bug on opel.

1. Star your engine

2. Ride to empty fuel

3. press E

4. press E (engine start making starting sound in loop and smoking from exhaust, not possible shift and move)

StuGIIIg will need fuel system check.

I am back.

Current StuGIIIG in 1.32.4 (after few hours)

1. Star your engine

2. Ride to empty fuel

3. press anytime E (no sound, no smoke, nothung)

This is looking good, work good.

Result: We have not real engine starter or engine starter sound !?!

I'll test this. What is the behavior of other vehicles?

[zeta]

I must note however, that every time engine bug happens is _not_ because of running out of fuel; sometimes it happens just after 5 min of driving, without taking any hits before (to fuel tank or anywhere else).

But the bug might be related to the fuel system.

I spawned and ran out of gas both the StugIIIG and the Opel and I was unable to get any action from the start engine key once the engines had died.
