Ah fak that really suck....what was weird though I can fly the merlin without lag on the training maps. (I tried to fly one last night and it didn't lag....I didn't try to again though.)

its a known issue, we will be looking into resolving it if possible for v0.8

I never get lag in the Merlin. I hope the Huey is all mine too!

Ditto, I've never experienced this "merlin lag". Huey was running fine on Op archer before TCombat went down.

Why introduce it if it has know issues?

If the Huey lags like the Merlin it will be as useful as 'tits on a bull' to most players. This just doesn't make sense to me, just leave it out till the problems have been fixed. That would seem like the sensible route.

I have the lag one day, don't have it the next. Some always have it, others never have. I have yet to try out the hooray Huey, can't wait to fly it :) .

Early .6 never had any issues with the Merlin for me; (Don't remember if it was in .5), later versions of .6 had occasional "Merlin Lag", and .7 has had me lag in the merlin 100% of the time I use it. As for the Huey, I flew it twice on Jabal, and only noticed lag once when I was taking off the carrier.

IF you have the bug will it appear on local server or is it only multiplayer?

Its only multi

I had it for merlin in 0.7 all the time didnt checked it yet in 0.75 Its more like freeze for a second every 3 seconds then actual lagging.

Today I tried Huey on Archer (which crashed few minutes later - the map) and it was lagging, not like merlin, it was lagging - split of a second every 3, 5, 10 seconds. But ppl on the ground were saying that it is laggy there as well so I cant tell if it was "merlin bug" (maybe we should call it custom chopper bug?) havent had time to check it as the server crashed.

Yea it's a custom chopper bug. Which sucks because the custom choppers are really smexy.

What other mods have this problem? I'm too much of a PR fanboy to know.
