    Yes, launch bar seats okay in shuttle. About two patches ago the launch bar abort switch ceased to function.

    Is the fact the AI wingman's flaps flicker/flap about included in the 'To Fix' list? It's a long-standing problem that may require ED's intervention. Thank you @scommander2, you're doing the Lord's work.
  3. JupiterJoe
    As of yesterday's Patch, this is now fixed.

    Negative, that's the minute hand you're pointing to. The issue is the additional stationary hour hand at the 12 o'clock position. If you turn down the instrument lights and then up again you'll see what I mean. It's only when I saw it on Discord the other day that I realised, and thought it was something we could add to the fix list. Thanks.

    Forgive me, but I find this wording a little confusing. Perhaps it should read something like: 'Clock: Duplicate hour hand present with illumination.' With regard to the Abort Launch Switch; I don't have the F-18 module, so don't know if it's an issue for them.
  7. JupiterJoe
    Huh? I'm referring to two different issues.

    TO FIX: Hour hand repeated in teh 1 o'clock position at night. Discord: • Discord | "Clock has 2 hour hands "illuminated"" | Heatblur Simulations TO FIX: The Abort Launch switch has ceased to function. Perhaps indicates this system is being worked on with Supercarrier/Deck Crew functionality.

    Well, according to Discord it's been known about since April 2023. So I guess a fix is in the pipeline.

    Did someone say 'to-do list'?

    I did not know this

    The AI wingman's fuel probe sometimes (most of the time these days), does not make proper contact with the basket. It hovers around the two o'clock position. As a workaround I ask the wingman to RTB and then join-up. That way he stops trying to refuel. Of course he won't have taken any fuel onboard and is likely to run out before the end of the mission, but I'm not sure what else one can do until it's fixed by ED/HB. In addition to this I believe most of the time the AI wingman's ext. fuel tanks are empty at the start of the mission. So he's always likely to run out before you. I'm not sure if this is a bug, or the fault of the mission programmer.

    Thank you so much for this @Biggus. This gain adjustment of which you speak is bespoke software that comes with the Moza? I understand the Phantom has some sliders related to autopilot breakout strength and whatnot. Be nice to see something similar for the Tomcat. It's good to hear that HB are aware. I'll have to try and get into Discord. Thanks again. EDIT: Found it. Thanks. null

    So, you guys are confirming that ACLS doesn't currently work with FFB and you've had intermittent issues? I'm trying to establish if there is a common fault with ffb so we can present our findings to HB, or my problems are exclusive to my aged ffb stick. I don't want to fork out for an expensive new ffb stick only to find there are inherent problems that HB are in no particular hurry to fix. Basically I'm looking for feedback (pun intended) from any FFB users out there. Thanks.

    They certainly did an incredible job keeping those jets flying all this time. The F-14 was notoriously maintenance heavy. It's no wonder the US defence budget is so big when they're so wasteful.

    Apologies for annoying you Naquaii. You seem to be one of the very few 'DEVS' who keep in touch on the F-14 forum these days, so I tried flagging you down. Where is everyone? How am I supposed to know who's in charge of responding to these things? Your Avatar says HB 3rd Party Developer. If it said "Hey, I'm just the SME Guy and researcher for the F-14", I would have still sent it to you, because how am I supposed to know who does what? The Bug Report I sent you, has been in existence since September. It's formatted in the correct way and correctly located in the Bugs & Problems section, but as you can see for yourself there's been no response. It's all very well all the cool kids being on Discord, but not of all of us have access to that and why should we need to? Having bug reports in two different locations is madness. This forum is the original source for information and I think it should be the first place everything gets posted. This mini-rant isn't directed at you personally Naquaii, you just happened to be the only representative of the firm to wander by in quite some time.

    I have this happen too. If you reduce throttle slightly after it skips Zone 1, it will find it eventually. Not very precise and frustrating, but perhaps that's the way it was with the TF-30. I have a VIRPIL Mongoose CM3 split-throttle and no matter what I set in the Special Menu it seems to skip Zone 1 most of the time. If you call up the control indicator it shows you passing through Zone 1 with no ignition. Does this match what happened in real life? It's like it's having trouble lighting the burner. EDIT: @WarthogOsl I adjusted my Saturation X to 99 and it seemed to do the trick. I have zero deadzone on the Special Menu slider. I guess everybody's controller is different tough. I have the Virpil Mongoose CM-3.

    Bump. New video added above.

    A tertiary problem would be ALT HOLD. Above about 15k feet wing sweep greater than 40 degrees causes ALT HOLD to fail. Above 30k wing sweep greater than 30 degrees causes failure. Not sure if it's my stick or all FFB sticks. It's as if the reduction in lift is not compensated for. It also fails to hold you level if you exceed a 10 degree bank angle. All of this works flawlessly with a non-ffb stick.

    Here is a secondary but related problem, where my FFB breaks whilst taxiing through an AI wingman's wake in this mission: Saved TrackFFBBreak.trk

    Here's one I prepared earlier:

    Thank you @MAXsenna. I didn't know HB enforce wake turbulence. The global checkbox is unticked, so not sure how I can address that. Did you see my track where I demonstrate ACLS not working with FFB sticks? That's the big one. The wake turbulence thing happens intermittently and needs addressing, but is something I can live with. The ACLS is a major system and it being unusable with FFB is a huge shame (not that we use it often, but it's nice to have just in case and we all want as realistic a sim as is practicable), and the one I would like to see fixed first.
