CAP 10 is missing aircraft entry clickspot

ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Description of the issue:
• There is not an external clickspot to open the canopy and enter the cockpit during the walk-around of the Robin CAP 10. Shift-C (or other keybind) must be used to enter the aircraft. Other external walk-around clickspots exist for the aircraft.
From inside the aircraft clicking on the canopy handle overhead will open the canopy.
• Opening the canopy does not teleport the player out of the aircraft (as is standard for other default aircraft). Shift-C keybind must be used to exit the aircraft.
The canopy can be observed closing automatically after exiting the aircraft.

Yes, clickspot is missing

The 1st spawn, if you click on the external handle, even if no clickspot exists, it will open the canopy and you automatically enter into the cockpit


If you exit the aircraft (Shift-C) and click again on the external handle, it will open the canopy but this time you are not moved into the cockpit.

Agree but not sure if a bug, maybe a design decision. Can be realistic to have the canopy open while engine is running, can happen IRL. Once you start moving, canopy automatically closes.

One additional point I noticed: once in the cockpit with the canopy close, to open it you must have the cockpit interaction system set to lock in order for the right mouse click to work. If you have it set to Legacy, canopy will not open.

I agree, it could be a design decision, but it doesn’t match the standardized action they set in all the other default aircraft.

I also agree that IRL the canopy or door could be open while on the ground in or out of the aircraft. I too would like to be able to open and close the door separate from entering and exiting.
