Has this already been reported as a bug in the HB discord? I’m about to post the following if I can’t find it in there: To my understanding the interlock is used in order to make sure you are firing the sparrow within (kinetic) parameters and should not interfere with the missile’s ability to track with a good lock. Is this correct? I’m playing around with firing the missile with interlock off during a head on pass. The steering dot seems to just go nuts and I don’t get launch lights until after I merge, which is what lead me to trying the shot with interlock off, as with the high closure rate there should not be a issue with the missile having enough energy. This is with a valid lock from jester, and after his count off and cue to “shoot!” with interlock off.

Thanks for the tracks, man! Hopefully this is what NineLine needed to see to get this issue bumped up.

I badly need a course keybind for the compass. It might be the only aircraft I fly that doesn’t have this keybind.

Has there been any resolution to this? I just started learning the A-4, so figured I was doing something wrong. Weapons station selected, dial set to Bombs and GM arm , master arm on, wait for it to start shrieking at me, release weapon - shrike flies in a slightly descending line and hits the ground.

If you or anyone else knows how, and would be willing to post a track file for this, it would help me out a ton - I’m computer illiterate; I just fly imaginary airplanes. This got flagged for missing info, and I’m assuming per NL’s response above that the track files are what they need.

+1 Posted this here but this thread was linked by another player, so wanted to add visibility to this request.

I'm getting used to the ARC-15 for in game nav, but this would be killer. On my free trial of the Hind atm (my first heli, and I think I finally understand what love is) and I'd enjoy having more input/options for mission planning. Is this option (adding waypoints "in game" from F10 map) available on anything but HB modules? I find myself wishing for this in every mod after flying the Viggen/Tomcat.

Does it matter where in the .lua this is added? I copy/pasted this into the bottom of the text and I can't find the binds.

You guys are ridiculous: FIRST you take out his heart and weigh it against a feather. If it’s heavier than a feather you THEN chuck him in the river and see if he floats, and if he floats you burn him. Good lord, you are all savages.

And the soon-to-be developed PTO. It’d work everywhere, through almost any timeline, for the entirety of the proposed scope of DCS WWII.

The A-6 is in the works, and there is an absolutely amazing A-4 community mod (that I wish could somehow be integrated into the core game for mp purposes). Cold War era interest is on the rise thanks in part to enigma&co’s beautiful work, so it’d make (business) sense if more assets were to follow.

My life will continue to be hollow and incomplete until the P-38 is in it. There is a long list of reasons that I’ve gone over ad nauseum in other threads, but in summation it played hugely important roles through large chunks of timelines in both theatres of war that ED is expanding into. Plus the highest scoring US ace in the war flew it, he had a really cool name (Dick Bong - come on, the memes and custom skins from this alone would be worth it), and he once got in trouble for flying a plane under the Golden Gate Bridge. TLDR: Dick, Bong, Bridge, cool plane, relevancy.

I did a quick google for historical accuracy, and turns out that both sides definitely had access to chunks of wood to keep wheels from moving by WW2.

After further testing in Instant Action missions where the suction gauge is reading within normal operating parameters, it’s pretty obvious at this point that the artificial horizon acting up is a symptom of inadequate suction in the vac system. I’m going to be testing more with the compass, but haven’t noticed anything obvious.

Has there been any headway on this? Haven't flown the jug in a few months, came back and this is still an issue (at least for me).
