Not Able to Lock MSI Tracks in MP

Recommended Posts

I see MSI tracks on my radar but can’t seem to lock on them in multiplayer. In SP if I see those MSI HAFUs but not the radar track file it’s because my radar elevation needs adjustment and that will always work to get a radar return on the target. In MP this never works. Why is that?

Check your radar elevation to ensure the contact is inside your scan volume. If you hover the TDC cursor over a contact on the SA page you'll get it's reported airspeed (in Mach) and altitude.

Right, that’s what I usually do. Get the altitude from the SA page and use that on the radar. Maybe the contacts I’m looking at are just too far away in MP

Please make sure to include a short track of your issue. Thanks!

Yes if I thought it was a bug I’d try to make a track. In MP these tracks are huge files though. I’m sure this probably isn’t a big, just something I haven’t figured out. More a question than a bug report.

It could be too far away to be picked up, there could be terrain in the way, the target could be notching or not generating enough of a doppler shift to be detected. There's a ton of factors that can contribute to it.
