Problems slaving TGP to steer point

[tordillo]

I hadn`t played for about a month and a half, and yesterday I flew again and found a problem slaving the TGP to the steer point. I set the steer point as SPI then pushed forwad the china hat, but the TGP doesn`t slave to that point, it remains unslaved and continues following the terrain, apart from that, the TAD doesn`t show the diamond icon.

It happened when I was flying the mission 5 of "the enemy within" campaign.

It didn`t happen when I created a SPI with the HUD, the TGP slaved without any problem after I pushed the China Hat.

Does anybody know if it is a campaign issue or a problem with an update?

Thanks in advance:helpsmilie:

China hat aft long is what you are looking for. :)

Ok, you are right, I forgot that,thank for your answer, but could it be possible to sleve the TGP with china forward long too if the steer point is a SPI?

IIRC,

 

C-Hat Forward Zooms Mav, C-Hat Forward Long Moves Sensors to Designated SPI

 

C-Hat Aft Cages Sensors (Returns To Forward Center and Locks), C-Hat Aft Long Moves TGP/MAV/TAD to Selected Steerpoint.

 

TMS Up Long Designates SPI

China-Hat Aft Long slaved TGP (only TGP) to steerpoint.

 

China-Hat Fwd Long slaves all sensors to SPI.

 

So yes you can use China-Hat Fwd Long to slave the TGP to SPI because this will get slaved at the same time as all other sensors.

 

You can see which is you current SPI designator by looking at lower left corner of the HUD. STPT (steerpoint) is default unless you designate something else.

Here's a simplified HOTAS reference card I put together in 2010. The source spreadsheet is in the OP if you need it.
