WildBillKelsoe Posted June 21, 2018 Posted June 21, 2018 Exactly how the toggle is supposed to be in real life? If the button is depressed its input equals action? when not depressed its input equals no action? how is this different from TDC down (action)? and even more importantly, what is the use of no action if any? Also I am a bit frustrated with the TDC HUD behaviour. See, I mapped the axis settings like A-10Cs TDC stock 30/100/30/0 but as soon as I let go after steering it down towards the nose from aircraft datum, it snaps back to the datum :mad: And yes you guessed it right, I slew back and it stays, then as soon as I touch the warty mole of a tdc it snaps back to the datum.

baltic_dragon Posted June 21, 2018 Posted June 21, 2018 Hey, You can use the TDC in either pressed or not pressed mode. If you press and hold it and then use TDC for slewing, it will move much faster. If you don't press it and use it for slewing, then it is much more accurate and used for "sweetening". The action of locking a target happens when you RELEASE the TDC (so keep it pressed and then let it go). That's how I understand it from NATOPS. And yes, seems to me not all is modelled yet. For more information, please visit my website. If you want to reach me with a bug report, feedback or a question, it is best to do this via my Discord channel.

I can say that got me even more confused :lol:. I meant how does it behave in real life. Is the TDC a pushbutton on a trim hat? If so, the action part is when you thumb it, and no action part is when you dont and just use the trim hat around it?

Ramsay Posted June 22, 2018 Posted June 22, 2018 (edited) ... how does it behave in real life. Is the TDC a pushbutton on a trim hat? The TDC control disc on the throttle (page 97 of Chuck's DCS AV-8B Harrier Guide) is more like a D-pad, as found on the LH side of a Xbox controller, etc. If so, the action part is when you thumb it, and no action part is when you dont and just use the trim hat around it? Yes - the TDC pad can be moved when depressed (action), as well as when released (no action) i.e. to quote from the Tactical Manual "it includes both action and no action slewing".
