SnakeEyes Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 Hey everyone! I found something weird when I was trying to waypoint designate the TGP. It seems that it won't stay tracked on target, as soon as I hit designate it will slew to the point but it won't area or point track like it normally does. Is there anything that the new update does so that I need to do something extra or is it a bug? The point of interest of the track is at 15:08 in the cockpit. I have attached it.Wypoint Designate + TGP Bug .trk :joystick: oops Modules I own: F-16CM, F/A-18C Lot 20, Supercarrier, Persian Gulf, FC3<bleh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tholozor Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 Try pressing TDC Depress with the TDC assigned to the FLIR page after it's been slewed to the waypoint.

Doesn’t waypoint designate only ‘designate’ the waypoint and not the target unless maybe the waypoint happens to be on the target?

SnakeEyes Posted September 6, 2020 Author Share Posted September 6, 2020 Try pressing TDC Depress with the TDC assigned to the FLIR page after it's been slewed to the waypoint. yeah it moves too fast off target to do that unfortunately. I will try and see if I should mark a point first then waypoint des. :joystick: oops Modules I own: F-16CM, F/A-18C Lot 20, Supercarrier, Persian Gulf, FC3<bleh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you mean it moves off target? It shouldn't do that unless you hit Undesignate.

vstolmech513 Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 Doesn’t waypoint designate only ‘designate’ the waypoint and not the target unless maybe the waypoint happens to be on the target? No, pressing designate makes the selected waypoint the target. It should change from a circle to a diamond and the TGP slews and should lock in place. I have this happen all the time and the only way to get it to stay is to TDC depress. Seems like the TGP is not recognizing the designate as a type of TDC depress maybe?
