  1. Hi, Would be nice to have the following two features. 1) The ability to name flags in mission editor. Because naming flags with numbers right now gets confusing fast. 2) A list of flags used. 3) In the trigger list, there should be a general search function that can search for any flags, actions. Ideally this would be a full text search so typing "searchstring" would match searchstring to string in the trigger list. Thanks,
  2. Figured it out. Seems that I set the map setting to "Map Only". I changed it to "Fog of War" and the views all work now.
  3. Even though in controls, F6 is mapped to released weapons view, I cannot track my munitions after i drop a bomb. I tried binding the action to "6" as well and that doesn't work either. I think it used to work but suddenly stopped working. Thanks!
  4. In a mission, I think I had my EGI damaged because NAV warning light was on and I lost my TAD as well as other information on the HUD. In this case, I switched to HARS. Several questions: 1. Can I still have the HSI point to my waypoint? I don't know if I can select waypoints via the CDU. 2. If I want to divert, I could punch in my home airfield TACAN into TACAN and use the HSI bearing pointer. 3. Can I still operate GPS-JDAMS? The CCRP reticle won't show up. 4. Can I still operate laser guided bombs or anything else? Thanks,
  5. Yes :) Not sure if the exploding fuel tank is realistic. Also not sure why there was a fireball catching up to the plane.
  6. That seems like a big vulnerability. I would've thought most aircraft get self-healing tanks in case they take AA fire.
  7. Just curious, can you jettison external fuel tanks, have it explode and lure an IR missile away?
  8. After taking fire, what's the best way to get a "damage report" of all systems?
  9. So in real life, planes jettison all ordnance when landing on carrier? Or only certain types like bombs, rockets. It would seem pretty wasteful to jettison AMRAAMs. Also, does DCS simulate bombs accidentally falling off of wings during a hard carrier landing?
  10. I was playing the Eastern Friendship campaign mission 1. Ran out of fuel extremely quickly while doing the first bit of trying to provide CAS for Badger 1. Could it be due to gunfire hitting my internal or external fuel tanks? I thought they are self-healing.
  11. Why would you drop the launcher rail as opposed to only the ordnance?
  12. During startup, we need to do things like fire test, fcs test, lights test. Is this just for show or can the game generate random system failures during startup in which case these tests are actually necessary? If there is a failure, how can I repair it?
  13. F6 doesn't work either. Is there a bug with the instant mission? Should F6 track dropped bombs? Thanks,
  14. Hi, I was playing the Conventional Bombing mission. After dropping the payload, I couldn't press F5 to activate the bomb view. I checked control bindings. Thanks
