Auto bomb mode

[Tango777]

I can designate a target to be bombed in Auto mode without any problem, but after I strike the target I cannot un-designate the target area that I set as my target so that I can move on.

 

What do you push to un-designate?

 

Maybe I'm wrong but is seems like I cannot put the remaining bombs into a different mode either when it comes to the symbology on the HUD. On the Stores page I can change the mode easily from Auto to CCIP or the 2 remaining modes, but the HUD remains with the nav cues (heading bug, miles from target, etc.) and I cannot get out of Auto mode in order to bomb another target.

 

To try un-designating the target area I already tried pushing the same I used to designate the area as the target, but that does not do anything.

 

This is for both latest versions 2.5 stable and open beta, and I have ran DCS Repair on both versions of 2.5.

I can't remember exactly but....there's a control function under "HOTAS" in controllers.

 

One does nosewheel deselect (S) and the other undesignates target... (I think it was T).

I am having the same issues as well. I was able to un-designate the target using the key bound to the stick, but the second I go to enable a different program, the target is designated again, and will not un-designate, no matter what key combo I depress. It jacks up my target tracking so bad, that I was unable to even get a set of sidewinders to home in on some Ka-50's. FWIW I was using Mk-82 Snake-eyes (Auto, Nose fuse, Instant activation, FF)

 

Basically I was able to make two passes on my ground target (still trying to become more proficient with accuracy and these dumb bombs), with the third pass switching targets. I wanted to try out CCIP with two munitons dropping 50' from each other. The second I switched to profile 2, the targeting became all jacked up. Had to land and restart the mission to get targeting back again.

IIRC, I hit the OSB in the top-right corner, OSB-6 I'd guess, of the HSI page.

Thank you! The key S does the job.
