Help with F18 and TGP/JDAMs in TOO Mode

[Recluse]

This is still PP mode, not TOO mode which is where the current difficulty lies.  PP mode works as long as you take the time to input coordinates whether they come from the MAP (aka "DCS workaround Data Cartridge") or via onboard sensors.  Difference is, TOO feeds sensor data directly in flight which we are currently unable to do for "mulitple targets"

 

But it is a way of programming MULITPLE targets.

8< "... PP mode works as long as you take the time ..", PP mode works ONLY IF you take the time. Otherwise I completely agree.

The question is, does the system allow for directly feeding a markpoint's date into the station, thus allowing for collecting a set of markpoints and setting up quasi PP missions, or does the system only allow for deploying one weapon at a time, while using the TGP to directly provide the target coordinates? Apparently, this used to be possible, but currently is not.

Indeed! As Lt. William Shakespeare wrote,  TOO be or not TOO be, THAT is the question!

To fly—to speed,
No, more; and by a speed to say we boom
The heart-ache and the thousand sonic shocks
That flesh is heir to: 'tis a consummation

Devoutly to be wish'd. To fly, to speed;
To speed, perchance to AAR—ay, there's the rub:

You used to be able to do that many patches ago but it was changed. You can't do it anymore.
