Flagrum Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 What does enabling or disabling "Cockpit Visual Recon Mode" do? What is it good for? (This question was asked already somewhere - but neither can I find that thread anymore, nor was the question really answered the last time I saw it ...) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kontiuka Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 When you right click your mouse when it is in slew mode (as opposed to selection mode with the yellow cross), a red cross appears which allows you to click on targets outside your cockpit. This is visual recon mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nate--IRL-- Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Probably not. I believe It add enemy units to the Ground Commanders F-10 map in MP if the Fog of War is being used. Players can then help the commander build up a picture of the battlefield.

DieHard Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 (edited) When you right click your mouse when it is in slew mode (as opposed to selection mode with the yellow cross), a red cross appears which allows you to click on targets outside your cockpit. This is visual recon mode. Thanks for the explanation. I did not find it in my Users Manual, probably has not been updated. Can this feature be used with the ABRIS in the Ka-50?

BitMaster Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 I am dazzled.... what AC are you talking about ? Su-25T ? or is this a general setting for all. It sounds like a useful tool I haven't used yet..

Azrayen Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Visual recon mode is a general setting, not linked to an aircraft in particular. See options>gameplay, first column last line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATONESIR Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 I have this setting enabled but it has never actually done anything for me in-game. However, I'm a n00b, so.... twitch.tv/atonesir [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
