[FIXED INTERNALLY] BRA changes when Azimuth degree scan changes


Recommended Posts

Posted

Linked to the ASL post I did, the BRA is never correct and in fact changes constantly depending on Azimuth setting. Tried both magnetic and true (although setting the HSI measurements to true actually only changes the heading tape and HSI rose compass, it doesn't change the final result.

 

 

I've verified this by looking at the heading of the JHCMS whilst leaving the TDC over the contact, then cycling the Azimuth degree scan. The BRA will keep changing despite the contact never moving (or the TDC, you dont need a contact, but nice to verify that the contact in the JHCMS is not accurate either) Interestingly the Bullseye stays the same during this.

 

 

 

 

I believe this is something to do with the zoom scaling of the radar scope. The Azimuth changes and the BRA would be correct if the Azimuth scan actually filled the entire scope width at the current AZ setting. However, for some reason the ASL seems to remain as the correct % of the full 140 degree scan, instead of zooming. I think if zooming is correct, then the radar hits should move outward like the bullseye marker does as if in a moving scenario. If the zooming is not correct then the BRA should refer to the absolute correct location as if not zoomed.

It's plain broken. It reads all sorts of different angles depending on the AZ sweep selection. Pretty amazing that relatively speaking not a large amount of people care or notices actually, I guess this really is just a single player game after all! I can name more than 15 Hornet drivers right now that find it frustrating, annoying and desperately need a fix.

Took me about a minute to reproduce this and make a track.

Still broken in last hotfix as of time of posting.

 

 

Disappointed that a trackfile is apparently required in order to get traction with the developers. This can be seen in seconds whilst looking at any Hornet radar whilst looking at other bugs.

 

 

 

Steps to reproduce, change the azimuth and watch the BRA change angles without anything else.

 

 

Nothing else required.

 

Loading up a trackfile takes infinitely longer, a complete restart of DCS. I had hoped that providing a video showing the same thing took <30 seconds of effort and saved you a lot longer.

Relax guys. Just use 140° and all is good. It's WIP. There is a track now, so it's gonna be fixed sooner or later.
