Aerofly 2 - Crash to Homescreen

53West · September 16, 2016 at 2:52 PM

Hi,

I noticed a few weeks ago that whenever I tried to land on 07/25 at Columbia, just at the point of touchdown the Aerofly 2 would quit to the homescreen. I thought it might be an error with my device (iPhone 6s) so ignored the issue.

However after the upgrade to iOS 10 I now can't fly anywhere near Columbia without the app crashing to the homescreen, this also happens if I try to start at Columbia from the locations menu.

I've tried deleting, rebooting and reinstalling, the same issue occurs, I can only assume its a problem with some of the scenery data.

Can anyone else replicate this issue?

Cheers.

Yeah, you're right! Columbia 07/25 is somehow below ground level and trying to land on it makes the app to crash badly.

I've checked this up on my IPad Air 2 with iOS 9.3.5.

Anyway, flying around Columbia area is ok for now.

Cheers.

7/25 should be 11/29. The physical bearing is correct in game but the numbering is wrong.

Same issue for me in iOS 10. Set location to Columbia (any runway) and app crashes when you hit start. Same issue when you are flying and approach the Columbia area.

So, we must consider the Columbia area as a permanent prohibited airspace.
Any response from the FAA?

Unfortunately this is still an issue with the new 2.4.5 release.

We have internally fixed Columbia. Thanks for reporting it. The error did not show up on our iPhone 6S and iPad Mini 4. It was due to a texture that didn't have a size of 2^n. Older iOS devices don't like non power of two textures.

Weird, this issue happened on my Pro and mini 4. Glad to hear it is fixed though.
