Oh, roger. I see what you said before now. Sorry. Thanks.

Again, there is no way in the sim to put a waypoint in an EXACT spot in relation to an object. That difference you see is the error in the ME.

What??? There's no way you can be certain that you actually placed it in a specific spot. Just check your mission and it'll be fine. I'm sure it is that, I don't see that behaviour in other missions.

? Are you describing some sort of cheap simulation of eyes or something? Didn't catch any of what you said, sorry. Let's do it again: Is that offcenter thing a real thing in the aircraft or just in DCS? If it is real, why is it?

How do you know waypoint 1 is off?

So I never understood the point of making the crosshair go offcenter when looking up. What is that about? Is it correctly modeled? Thanks.

Please launch the caucasus ready on the ramp instant mission and see if it still happens to you.

I have seen your track and I also see the same, but not on any of my missions. I think something is corrupt in yours. What date is it in?

I agree it'd be a good idea. ED is not particularly known for achieving deadlines but the involvement of Kate surely brought a lot of health into the management and things are going better. I imagine before her the Hornet would have been completed by the end of 2022 and now everything points to it being done by the end of 2021. All of this is subjective of my thoughts and do not reflect the thoughts of any other member.

Track attached showing that using offset makes the elevation of the new target point negative. Thanks. tgp offset elev bugs.trk

ED must have gotten it wrong, just like the JDAM logic that they had to overhaul because of a misinterpretation of documents after tagging correct as is in dozens of threads. They're humans and they can make mistakes. You can tell they probably got it wrong when you realize that the offset logic in the ATFLIR is by offsetting the "new point" rather than leaving the old one centered. I hope they can revisit this.

Yes, marking ground points I think is the core of an HMD in AG mode. I am so frustrated that the a10c got this before the hornet. Hornet development is starting to frustrate me lately.

Unfortunately no.

It doesn't surprise me either that the radar won't see structures and trees, it's normal in DCS and not critic IMHO. What it does feel bad is that the Hornet uses Radalt as a source without commanding it manually (turning radalt on does not involve turning it on for weapon delivery, two different things) or having DTED unavailable.

Well, it seems we have a bigger issue in our hands cause that should not happen at all. Radalt is not the source of calculation unless commanded which isn't possible in the hornet right now.

But your radalt isn't moving at all. The effect you are talking about does exist, but only ED knows what is causing it. Probably a couple of bugs.

Yeapers! That's what I meant. And also yes, we have magic DTED and pretty much 70% of the aircraft's systems in the same state.

Yes, but it is not the case he was reporting, he just mixed them up. What he sees in the piper is the DTED in action. The AGR is just faster and has real resolution.

What? Radar alt is never the mode so that doesn't make any sense. You are confusing DTED with radalt.

Literally tons.

It would be nice if you try that exact situation with the a10c, so we can determine if the DTSAS or DTED is simulated independently of the airframe and how it is actually simulated.

Nice. So it is definitely "correcting" any erros in the DTED database, assuming there's one simulated already. Funny thing is, the radar wave should be absorbed by the water and the ccip cross should not be accurate.

Let's not get away from the actual report in OP please. As a side note, what you're saying doens't really have to do with what the devs said, because we were talking about the radio states when no generators are online and you are describing normal operation for when AC power is on (gens on).

I don't seem to be able to make it work like Rifle described. Not only my ccip cross won't change but the delta values also stays in 0. I did quite a few runs in the mountains.

Very nice findings! I will try them out today.
