AFAC won't use WP markers.

[Zilch]

Hi,

 

I'm trying to set up a visual-only CAS mission with an OH-58D AFAC. I've got him armed with WP rockets and have the "Designation" set to "WP" in the Advanced Waypoint Action window.

 

Radio comms work fine, but he always says "no mark" during the 9-line and won't actually hit the vehicle in question with a marker.

 

Is there a way to force him to mark the target instead of having the marker appear from a trigger? It would feel a lot more organic and in-world if the AFAC does it, rather than a scripted smoke marker appearing on the target from nowhere due to an unseen trigger.

 

Thanks!

I don't believe the OH-58D has been implemented to actually mark targets. Can one of the ED devs confirm?

 

I've never been able to get them to do more than Type 3 control and they never mark the target with laser or WP in my testing.

Hrm... This may change some things. Is there a known AFAC that can use the WP rockets?

Apache can.
