[NO TRACK FILE] Possible Bug Re: Target Undesignating.

[045]

1. Designate a target point via the "ball and chain" mode.

2. Switch to A/A mode.

3. Switch back to A/G, the target point cannot be normally undesignated. In order to undesignate it I must move the Sensor Control Switch to a new position, then back to Forward and hit undesignate again.

 

 

When switching to A/A mode or simply an A/A weapon, the radar is forced to look down to its gimbal limits. It is possibly looking right at the target point.

 

 

I also noticed that after undesignating a target point a time to release indication remains (static value), it takes two depressions of the Throttle Designator Control to first clear this indication, and then designate a new target point.

 

 

And lastly and possibly unrelated, during my tests to define these conditions, I noticed my range to target point indication value (on the HUD) sometimes fluctuating with my aircraft's pitch. The target point on the HUD would also sometimes fluctuate rapidly to different spots on the HUD.

 

 

All these tests were done from spawning midair though it also occurs when spawning from ground, cold.

 

 

P.S. I love this module.
