max22 Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 How awesome it would be if we could copy coordinates from the F10 map (top left) and paste them directly to the UFC position display ? This can become a huge time saver. ED let us know your opinion on this. :thumbup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Kazansky Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 I wonder if it should be like that. I understand that we should be able to program targets faster and easier before the flight. Hopefully the cartridge project will provide that. But being airborne it should work like IRL. So there shouldn't be something that replaces what is done in reality. Means typing in coordinates. Ok the F10 target designation is unrealistic anyway. So if you want/are allowed to use it I have a suggestion: ED could give us a tool where we can take over the coordinates and altitude of a highlighted target or point on the F10 map to a line of text shown in F1 view like a radio call. Pilot still has to type that info to the plane. But hey, that's why we simulate being pilots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eldur Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Should be possible to copy them over to the kneeboard instead so we can do it the real way. Having to switch back and forth all the time isn't that realistic anyway. And yes, I used to write those just down. Until I got my CV1... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harker Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Best thing would be to be able to designate positions on the map as mission targets (using a new marker), in the Mission Editor and have that info on the Kneeboard. The F-18 kneeboard is extremely bare bones right now. The vCVW-17 is looking for Hornet and Tomcat pilots and RIOs. Join the vCVW-17 Discord.
