Training mission, issues with "start-up from cold & dark"

DCS 2.5.3.23954

 

It's great to see there are training missions in Nevada as well! :)

 

I have noted a few issues below, nothing blocking or major.

 

1) "You will find a full list in the "Aircraft Procedures" chapter ... as well as on your kneeboard" (see picture 1)

=> there is no procedure information on the kneeboard

 

2) longitude adjustment: the audio is corrupted (see picture 2 for expected text).

 

3) Pressing the test switch: the highlighted indicator is impossible to locate (as a general rule, those indicator make it very difficult to read the knob labels and should be avoided altogether). See picture 3.

 

4) Bingo fuel, "You will usually find the required value in the mission briefing or on your kneeboard. Press SPACE BAR when you are ready". What value should I put? I see nothing on the kneeboard, and I didn't see any briefing info (only wrong coordinates, are they from Caucasus?).

 

5) The user is first asked to contact the tower. Then a few seconds later the text continues (with another voice), so I'm hearing both the tower answering and the instructions of the training, it's confusing. See picture 5.

 

6) The user needs to press SPACE after setting NAV / N once the INS alignment is completed, but it's not said.

 

In general: sometimes the user has to press SPACE, sometimes the conditions are detected. I understand why because I used the ME to create missions, but 1) here sometimes it could be detected while it's not, and 2) it would be better to have a consistent protocol for the whole mission.

 

7) During the engine startup, the sound is suddenly inaudible / very faint, while it was very audible initially. It seems like a new sound bug in the latest DCS updates?

Regarding the engine becoming faint, it may not be a bug. I believe it is done deliberately so that you can hear the instructor clearly.
