Alright, so I played some FH2 on El Alamein, as a pilot.
So I get in the BF109, fly a little, when a enemy plane fires at me, bringing me back to about 20% health. So I land to repair my plane, to find my legs stuck in the ground. Couldn't fix it, so I repaired my plane and got in.
A while later, I got shot down. Respawned, and my legs were still in the ground. I somehow managed to fix it, but I don't know how. It temporarily got fixed when I started typing, but resumed after I finished typing.
