[NO BUG] Missing Dela Alt and Closing speed indications on Attack radar page


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello,

 

When locking a target, the scale on the right of the Attack radar page should display a carret indicating antenna elevation and next to it a number indicating delta altitude. On the right scale there should be a carret indicating closure rate with the closure speed indiated next to that carret. Neither the delta altitude indication or the closure speed are displayed in 2.5.4.

 

Track attached.

 

Regards,

Rex.

They're not missing, you're just in DCTLR 2 mode, switch back to normal display or DCLTR 1 and you're good to go. In the latest patch the radar defaults to DCLTR 2 for some reason, not sure if that's actually a bug.

 

Also, when you're making a track for a specific issue, try to make something short and to-the-point so the viewer doesn't have to watch the whole auto-start and takeoff. In this case you could've made a simple air-start with a target in front of you to lock up.

Thanks, I noticed when the update passed that DCLTR 2 was on by default but completely forgot in the three days away from the sim.

I would if it didn't have an effect on the outcome, here in this specific scenario it did not (I tested it in air start after making the report) but in other cases air start or ramp start makes a difference in how the aircraft behaves in certain scenarios which is why from now on every time I notice an issue I keep every single variable the same, including ramp start or air start. Since I was on the ground you could have also sped up the track, but I'll test both next time before reporting.
