Nav Fix/Target Waypoint issue, bug or me being bad?


Recommended Posts

Posted

So I'm trying to do a nav fix and or move my target waypoint.

 

My process is as follow. :pilotfly:

 

1. T1 Fix - grid goes away, cross-hair shows up. (the M or B changes to an E)

2. Move cross-hair over desired area on the radar screen.

3. TV Fix

 

From what I can tell this should be the correct way of doing things.

 

But, every time I do this the grid just comes back. The cross-hair is still visible and the target waypoint does not move or no navigation fix takes place. :joystick:

 

Am I missing something important here?

I haven't done a radar nav fix in a while (I'm mostly doing overfly nav fixes), but I will check it later and see if I have the same issue with radar nav fixes.

I've just checked it and it Works like it should ... press T1Fix, then move the cursor and press TV Fix ... the waypoint rings moves to the new designated position.

 

 

Check your keys, for T1 I'm using "RSHF + t" and for TV I'm using "LCTL + LSHF + t" ... If I'm not mistaken, those keys were not binded by default and I had to define them myself.

Thank you! :) I have all those switches bound to my hotas.

 

If I'm using the right procedure then I'm gonna file this under "bugs" instead.

OK, but my Viggen can do the radar fix with no trouble, so it isnt a widespread bug.

Works for me as well, so I think you might be doing something wrong.

 

Edit: I tested it in SP, so maybe it's different in MP.

Worked fine for me today, but pre-2.5 I often had your problem.

 

Few things are as frustrating as flying all the way to an objective only to be unable to make that final AG radar correction to hit the target squarely.

Yesterday I noted that on my PC the Nav Fix works fine on single player, but on multiplayer its behaving the same as the original poster's :(

Hey!

This happened to me as well. Apparently, it happens when you have RB75/MARK/DYK selected on your weapon selector switch. With anything else (ATTACK, etc...) it works as intended.

I was with Rb15F on MP and it happened to me, couldnt get the radar fix needed to use the missile properly, had to launch them using the quick mode, that doesnt require a radar Fix.
