Tusker Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 In both Single Player and Multiplayer, playing a BLUE FA-18C Hornet, I can track and engage a target that has been clearly identified as hostile, e.g. it is a red icon on my radar and SA page. I engage and shoot it down, and I get a message up in the upper-left corner of my screen that an "Unknown FA-18 Hornet" has either been damaged or destroyed? This freaked me out initially. I'm not aware of any Red Hornets, so why am I getting that message? I check in TacView, and the destroyed target is in fact a Mig or some other Red acft, not a Hornet. Am I miss-reading something? eric [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] ----------------------- i9 9900K | Dual NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 8GB | 64 GB DDR4 @ 2666MHz | 2TB M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD (Boot) + 2TB 7200RPM 3.5" SATA HDD | 850 Watt Power Supply with Liquid Cooling | Thrustmaster F/A-18C Hornet™ HOTAS Add-On Grip | TPR Pendular Rudders | Warthog Dual Throttles | Track IR5 | Foxx Mounts Stick and Throttle | Massdrop AKG K7XX w SBX G6 DAC | Corsair K70 RGB Platinum | G903 Lightspeed Wireless Mouse | Acer XR382CQK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
takamba Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 This is confusing, I must admit. You get that message because you fly a Hornet. It just means you damaged or destroyed something with your Hornet. This message doesn't refer to your target.

Tusker Posted February 3, 2020 Author Share Posted February 3, 2020 tkamba - Thanks that makes sense. It's just strangely worded. One would think that it would tell you what you shot down or damaged.

Oceandar Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 I think that was because the text font is too big to fit for the whole sentence. Mastering others is strength. Mastering yourself is true power. - Lao Tze Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
