[REPORTED] AACQ issues

I've noticed a couple of issues with the two functions of SCS Right on the radar screen since the OB patch last Friday.

 

Relevant section from the manual:

Pressing the Sensor Control Switch to the right when the TDC is already assigned to it will place the RADAR in Auto Acquisition (AACQ) mode. If the TDC if over a target symbol when AACQ is commanded, it will instruct the RADAR to lock on to that target. If AACQ is pressed with no target symbol under the acquisition symbol, then the RADAR will attempt to lock on to the closest target within the selected RADAR scan volume.

 

1. Lock up the target under the cursor

 

This just doesn't seem to be functioning at all and it seems like pressing the function just activates the second function instead - often an entirely different target from the one under cursor is locked, even one outside of your current scan range.

 

You can see this when I first try AACQ over a target in the track, at 17s into this video:

 

2. Lock up the closest contact on radar

 

This one's a little harder to reproduce but if you try it a few times you'll see the issue, it's most obvious at 1:36 in the video here:

I have a contact within 20nm, and after commanding AACQ a line appears over that contact but the lock jumps to a target 50+nm away instead.
