609_Relentov Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 Flew the OB Mig-21bis today, one thing I noticed is that when the 3-4 pylons are selected for A-A missiles (R-60), I pressed the weapon release button and one missile from each of the two pylons left the rails. Is this a new feature? I think it's always been like this, but you really had to hold the trigger down for a bit longer. Now, it seems I can't fire just one A-A IR missile if I have 3-4 pylon selected. I have to select 3 or 4, and then only one will fire. Anyone else notice this? Is this expected behavior? Thanks. Relent
Buzzles Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 (edited) Ln have changed the logic for the selector. It is in the patch notes. It should now conform to the RL operation. There's a thread about it in the bug section. Edit: See here for details Edited April 2, 2017 by Buzzles Fancy trying Star Citizen? Click here!
iLOVEwindmills Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 So if you want it to work like before, you basically have to select the individual pylons. For instance if you before had it set to 1/2, you now set it to 1 and it will fire 1 first but then if you keep holding down the release it will also fire 2. Just like it worked before with 1/2. That is assuming you have an IR/SARH combo. Obviously there are a number of variations in which things are handled depending on your exact load and settings, but it's all fairly intuitive. It's best to go into editor and just fire off missiles for 20 mins to get a feel for it.
grunf Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 It won't launch in salvo if you keep holding the button, you have to press it again. Unless you're in salvo mode ofc. :D You can still chose individual pylon, you can chose between IR and SARH, or just let the plane launch at predetermined sequence. It's up to you, according to the situation. IMO this is the best feature in this patch, and the one I was waiting for a long time.
609_Relentov Posted April 2, 2017 Author Posted April 2, 2017 Thanks for the replies - the manual in the doc folder wasn't updated so I wasn't sure if the new behavior was documented anywhere. I'll look for the patch release notes for more info, and the link Buzzles provided.
