Can't fire rockets after reload (Solved)

I have been having the problem of HVAR and M8 rockets not firing after reloading.

It is a simple issue with the rocket counter, but it took me a while to figure it out.

The video demonstrates it and I included a short description below.

The counter won't reset to 1 after firing 10 rockets because it

is a 24 count counter. If you push the "weapons release" button

14 more times, it will fire the next rocket when it comes around to 1.

You have to manually reset the counter to 1. There is no mapping for that knob and it's

hidden behind the stick, so if you are using "unlimited ammo" as I

do with a target practice mission, reloading in the air,

you have to take your "eyes off the road" to do the reset.

To avoid crashing into something, I use "active pause," then I

can look down behind the stick and reset it.

We need either a 10 count counter like in the Mustang or,

Some way to map the reset knob. There is none as of now.

How about a 24 rocket load out?? That would work, but I don't

know if it's realistic. Is there a historical load out like that??

I mean, why have a 24 count counter if you don't have 24 rockets??

Thanks, Ray

Edit:

Additional info: I just did some research and there were no 24 rocket loadouts.

Max loadout is 10, 5 inch (130mm) HVAR or 2, M10 Bazooka tubes with 3, 4.5 inch (110mm) M8 rockets each.

not solved yet. It is next to impossible to reload if using unlimited ammo...

True, but there is a workaround.

Use active pause. LShift+LWin+Pause

You can then look down, move the stick and turn the knob.

It is a PITA though, breaks your momentum, immersion and not at all realistic.

Hopefully they will at least give us a key binding or

better yet a counter that only goes to 10.

It's even worse when using the Bazooka tubes.

You only get 6 shots with those.

thx, true, keybinding is a must
