It's almost as if this still is a beta product in active development...

To be honest: in all modules I own, the wingmen tend to go unnecessarily high on power when attempting to rejoin formation etc., usually reaching low fuel way before me. I always took that to be a core ED AI problem.

You still have the master test switch set to "Inst". Turn it off. Doesn't have to do with alignment.

And there you just counted the reasons why I'd prefer the D. Not saying I don't like the B, though :D

I would say that is correct behaviour, 3&6 are the forward stations.

No, when you trigger emergency landing gear release, it empties a compressed gas bottle, so not an easy reset. Maybe HB will add it to the repair option in the ground crew menu.

Borked tracks is a DCS core game problem, it happens in other modules too, albeit not as bad as in the F-14. Still: that's an ED / DCS thing to fix, I think.

You are right, I phrased that badly - I should have written that it is indeed only used in landing. :)

ATC is indeed only used in ACLS.

I don't find any case of 676 rounds anymore, either, so I guess all is fine! :)

I'm sure I saw 676 in the hot start missions, but will look into it this evening and give you feedback! :)

If I had OCD, it would now be held in check! :D Thanks for the info! :)

Do you have 10308 TCP or TCP/UDP forwarded? Needs both.

Come on, that is really too easy! ;)

At 6.000 rpm, having a delta of 6 or 4 rounds not displayed is essentially worthless, though, to be honest. :D Out of curiosity I am wondering about that too, though.

Yeah, that is all fine and dandy, but if you correctly set them in the Mission Editor, they are also on the kneeboards, which is fine for a human RIO :D

This!! And so much this!! :D Seriously, no one needs to know he is going 320 or 335 KIAS, just remember the most important needle positions. That is most definitely visible w/o zoom. If you need to absolutely see details on any given gauge: lean in and maybe add a bit of zoom, done.

Exactly.

Actually it is a bit more complex: IP, ST and EP programmed in Mission Editor are only ready on the go when starting hot or in the air. When starting from cold and dark, they have to be entered *in the mission*, either by Jester, a human RIO or swapping into the back.

Now THAT is some helpful information, as a lot of guys (me included) were wondering about this in the last days. Thanks for clarifying that!

Yes. https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3847832&postcount=144

I found that this happens when you accidentally click the landing gear handle on the ground, setting it to "emergency down". This disengages NWS and you can't turn it back on again.

Yeah I know you can do that ingame, I prefer to preload IP etc. through the Mission Editor, though, and I THINK that was what HB was intending to do with it. That's what the Tomcat specific waypoint tab is for, after all :) So I think they should overwork the missions during early access.
