[NOTED] IR lock tone when not in IR mode

[ff4life4]

This won't work when carrying R-60's and R-3Rs, I have only noticed it with R-3R's and R-13M1's. But if I have the IR/SAR selector on SAR and I have a R-3R pylon selected, If I put the pipper over an aircraft, it will slew the pipper and give me a lock tone. It will act the same if I had an R-13m1 selected with it on IR mode.

+1! Same issue happened. to several players in our team, various slots

R3R in 3-4

R3M1 in 1-2

 

With selector in 3-4 and switch in SAR.... the piper lock the target and gives you the lock sound.

With selector in 3-4 and switch in IR piper... also locks and you can launch the R3R but they dont hit (even with radar off)

With selector in 1-2 and switch in SAR... No IR lock (this works fine)

With selector 1-2 and switch in IR... you get a lock and able to launch R3M (This works fine)

 

Thanks.. If you want I can attach Mission File

Yup. thay didn't happend before, so is a "undocumented feature" of one the lastest patches.

Also happens with R-55 + RS2US loadouts.

Same here, using a R-3R i get the tone like an IR missile
