Plane selection bug/confusion? Thread - Vector Thrust

Err I just want to report this weird bug,

I was about to play mission 3 in campaign mode, then I (accidentaly) decide to buy A-10. however, after exiting main campaign, I cannot choose A-10. In fact, I even have XF-104 in other mode? Oh and when I go back to campaign menu, the A-10 is locked again but the money is reduced.

Can somebody clear my confusion to me? Is XF-104 suppose to be unlocked from the start? Why F-104 family cannot be used in campaign mode? Also where is my A-10 go?

But still, I still enjoy every single challenge with any kind of plane. However if the bug persist, I'm sorry but I have to cheat via .ini files...

There's two separate systems for selecting aircraft.

The campaigns use aircraft specifically selected to be used in that campaign, while the other system is for skirmishes, scenarios, and multiplayer. You start off with the XF-104, J35D, and MiG-21 F13 for these other three game modes and unlock more by completing challenges.

For this bug about the A-10 being locked after purchase, I'm unable to help with this.

Hmm.

Spoot, me, and basically everyone have explained Challenge mode. I won't repeat this info.

The A-10 lock-down post-purchase, uh.. that really sounds sad. I would like a slideshow or something, but, whatever:
From what it seems, the game itself forgot to unlock the A-10, and, because it didn't get to save that much, you lost it again. But, it did save your wallet (in-game obv.), so yeah.

This is the best description I can come up with. Are you able to re-purchase the A-10? (Hacking money in is perfectly fine, I just want to know if you can do it)

Chroist this was a bump.

I have finished the campaign and I can buy A-10. Seems the game is just hiccuping once in a while. The bug never returned after I start this thread.
Perhaps other things that I noticed is I played second campaign and apparently I can't even make a damage to Dreamers Squadron, using F-16 btw. Is this because of damage threshold or another random bug?

They're plot-armored for storyline reason. But you'll get an opportunity to kill them in the later mission
