Can you send me dcs.log or tell me how to replicate this?

The drawargs are represented in C++ in DCS as floats. Because how they work they might not always do exactly how you think they would. You can google this more precisely but anyway my bet is that -0.3 isn't really -0.3 but instead something like -0.29999999998 or -0.3000000001. You can fix this by adding an acceptable range to identify the value you are looking for, something like this: if device(0):argnr(567) <= -0.31 and device(0):argnr(567) >= -0.29 then "data1" = "-" or you can ofcourse find the exact represented value and look for that.

Ok let’s continue this on Sunday 19:00 GMT.

No thank you! I love that you thought 400 people watched the stream [emoji23]. I didn’t finish it and now I have to sleep but I really want to do another stream and finish it. I’ll decide tomorrow probably.

It says 0 viewers?

Guys I think I need to postpone the stream. I have a fever and I can’t think straight. I’ll give it another try at Thursday same time same channel.

M/71 radar bombing (RR) - target firing line Yes the look of the distance marker has been corrected since that video was recorded, previously it looked like a cross but it’s supposed to only be a line. Maybe you can post a screenshot to confirm?

It’s finished. I have to do some smoke testing but seems to work.

Thanks for the report. Fixed internally and will be included when Viggen is patched next time.

It’s coming it just takes some time because there are quite a lot of different weapon combinations possible. I am glad you are so dedicated for Viggen! Happy new year guys!

Landing flare Too fast? Or if you are using AFK too heavy perhaps? Edit: reread your post so not too fast but what are your weight state?

I think it works even if it doesn’t look like it does the second time

It’s fixed internally since last week and is uploaded to ED awaiting new patch. Sorry. There was another key bond added by JediTeo way back and I added another so only one of them works. I believe the clicking works though in the currently released version?

A explanation of the cat-hunting robot item: I have a cat that keeps peeing in our bed. He's been doing it for almost a decade and we haven't found a way to stop him except locking him out of the bedroom. I have a robot-kit for my Raspberry Pi that I've built and can make it move around using Python-code. It also got a camera module (and INS) and I've played around with OpenCV so I know I can detect cats through the camera. So my plan is to have it stay in the bed and when it detects a cat it would charge against the cat to scare it away. What I need to figure out is to have it not fall out of the bed, maybe by simply reversing the movement it just did or something more clever through the IMU or using the camera for tracking its movement.

Look into windows control setting and check how that switch works. Is it three individual logical buttons or are they two (which usually is the case). If the latter check what position corresponds to what and what position is “not-pressed”. Probably the middle position is not pressed. If so map the pressed extreme position to “TV three position switch” or whatever it’s called and the opposite extreme position to”T0 three position switch”. Don’t map anything to middle position (you can’t).

RK4 is this, a way to calculate position of an object in motion after a set time. It would be used to get for example bombing solutions for Viggen. Right now Viggen in DCS is using EDs solution but it is for some reason often not very accurate for especially Viggen bombs and can also sometimes change between updates. Implementing this would be a way to validate if the bombing solutions is accurate and something else is the problem. I've implemented this method before and I even believe that it is already available in HeatBlur common codebase but I thought it would be something interesting to watch me do since it's rather quick and straight-forward.

UPDATE: Follow-up stream on Sunday 19:00 GMT STREAM POSTPONED TO THURSDAY “who would watch that pixel shit” - Twitch-user ”SeTh0r_” comment on previous stream Let’s begin the new year with another coding-stream! You too can get disappointed at 19:00 to 20:00 GMT on january 7th January 9th 2020. The stream will be at Stream will most likely be scrambled for IP-reasons. Please don’t record it! If you spot something that wasn’t meant to be publicly shown, don’t tell anyone but do tell me!

 I’ve culled the items that got 5% or less votes from the previous vote but kept the rest as well as added new ones. Some items could be streamed unscrambled. Don’t forget to vote above!

Yes it's seems like a absent minded conscript flight engineer put the wires from the RAT into the battery instead of the main line. Fix is in our internal build. Thanks for the reports!

Don’t know maybe

New patch, new bugs. The crash with last fired sidewinder has been fixed due will very likely be in a hotfix release tomorrow. Very strange that the framstegn doesn’t work as it did on my machine when I tested last week. Missing textures are also fixed and will probably be in said hotfix. Edit: oh and I realize why the radar filter wouldn’t work. Can’t guarantee that I can patch it today in time but would then be in next years patch.

If you do, do me a favor and try disengaging the SPAK and see what happens then.

Are you sure? Iirc the docs I had buffets could start being felt at 10 deg. There are a lot of ways to check high alpha/low speed, for example isn’t there a landing conf chart?

Nice and thanks! I believe the late rotation might have to be related to, again, the suspension. In DCS the suspension needs to be pretty stiff to handle the hard landings Viggen does. To rotate an aircraft with main landing gears behind the aerodynamic center the landing gears needs to be able to contract a little to create a little alpha while the aircraft still has all wheels on the ground. If not the aircraft needs to accelerate to enough high speed to be able to fly at 0 alpha. So again I believe it’s a tuning issue.

Where you able to resolve this?

It’s a demotion of the issue severity level at least [emoji23]
