[REPORTED]TACAN 3-digit identifier doesn't appear since latest patch


BritTorrent

Recommended Posts

I noticed that I'm not getting the 3 digit identifier for TACAN stations anymore in this patch.

 

I have attached a track showing this behavior. I tune into the TACAN for the Carrier on 1X, the name of the station that I set in the mission editor is C74. This identifier doesn't appear on the HUD or the AMPCD.

 

Is this a bug, or has the process for getting this information to display changed?

Just for kicks, set the TACAN to both TR and AA and see if that works.

TACAN

 

So, I see one thread since the patch that says they are having TACAN problems, but not many posts. My issue is similar (and I still need to screen shot it), but I too lost the 3 letter designation, and the only ones that seem to work are on the default air fields...None of the customs (Stennis, Carl, refullers, etc) are working at all

 

Only a couple of us have this issue? everyone else is working just fine?

 

 

***EDIT***

Ok, so, I went through my mission and removed the default TACAN that is set on Waypoint 0. Says something like TACAN Activate "##" "TRK" -a. I deleted that and then added my own. For my aircraft that fixed all their TACAN problems. You can tune them in, the 3 letter display is back on the MFD, but not in the hud (but I think the hud issue is more me than a problem (still learning the different modes)

 

HOWEVER, still NOTHING for the ships. Can't tune any of them in, no matter what I try.

 

This is the CAUCUS map, my own mission

I recognized this possible issue yesterday, too. Was just flying the waypoint training mission and after completing the track I returned to Kutaisi and tuned the according TACAN station and was wondering what I am doing wrong because there was just a distance shown on HUD and HSI but no station. When I did the same before the last patch the informations were there.
