Waypoint slaving to flir does not work properly in multiplayer.

Hi,

 

 

I had a blast dropping laser guided bombs so I decided to do the same with my son. We had nav points at the same spot in mission editor. We slaved nav point to flir and I had to slew flir cursor just a tad down and I saw the target. My son said he can't find the target that was a plane on ramp. I went to see his flir and I couldn't find the target either.

 

I double checked the mission editor and nav points were at the same target. Our planes started mid air and close to each other. I finally found the target from my son's flir but the nav point was quite far away from target. I was hosting our game and I had nav point spot on but my son did not have. Why is that?

That's difficult to answer without knowing what aircraft you two have flown ;)

Hornet I guess, I had identical issue yesterday on Hoggit Persian Gulf . I didn't record the track file so I didn't report. It may be my mistake, second flight, without resetting the plane I was able to slew the pod to the other waypoint without any problem.

Hmm, never had such an issue with the Hornet.

Yeah, we flew hornets. We'll try it again today but yesterday we tried 5 times in a row and it didn't work out. For me it works always like charm. I asked this if there are syncing issues or something else. But we don't get any rubberbanding or other issues when just flying in formation.
