I'm having a hard time firing the ATGM from the front seat.
I can do it in the tutorial, but not in a custom mission.
So here's what I'm doing
Hot start
From the front seat I flick the Fire control, Sight, Range Insert, Sight mode and Sight Sync switches
I press Ctrl W to get the AI to set up the front seat weapons.
I take off and head towards the target.
I jump into the front seat and wait for the weapons to warm up
When the system warms up, I get a red light on the "Launch Approved" switch and the tone
I flick the observer switch and select missile on rail 1
I drop into the sight and still have missile tone and red light, but the sight is still pointing into the sky, when i shift the sight down towards the ground, the tone goes off and wont come back unless it is pointed into the original position.
I drop out of the sight and the red 'Launch approved" button is not on and nothing I flick (including Diafr open) brings it back on (the sight still moves around though)
It isn't a range thing as I fly directly towards a target and no mater how near or far, the same result.
I've looked at the video Wags did and have set my front seat controls to the same as his (but I notice that his lights on the external stores are not on while mine are).
I assume there have probably been updates since these videos where created, so I don't know if they are out of date.
I've spent hours trying to work through this issue, and it's starting to sh!t me. Is there a definitive guide to how this is supposed to function?
