Jak525 Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 With the segmented A/G target diamond, there is always a dot in the center. When the HUD is made TDC priority, the dot simply gets brighter. This is in contrast to the full diamond which does not have any circle except when the HUD is TDC priority. Track attached demonstrating both of these.AG diamond glitch.miz.trk
Harker Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 (edited) You're right. I tried this now. I don't know if the dashed TGT diamond is supposed to not have a dot in AG mode, when the HUD is unselected, since the dot appears in the FPM with HUD selected and disappears when it's deselected. But the dot in the diamond definitely gets brighter when you select the HUD. Edited April 18, 2019 by Harker The vCVW-17 is looking for Hornet and Tomcat pilots and RIOs. Join the vCVW-17 Discord.

I forgot the "un-", fixed my post now. I meant that, since we get the SOI (Sensor Of Interest) indication dot in the FPM, maybe the dot in the dashed diamond should stay, even when the HUD is not SOI anymore. I don't remember how it was before the bug. The vCVW-17 is looking for Hornet and Tomcat pilots and RIOs. Join the vCVW-17 Discord.

Only makes sense for the dashed diamond, IMO. Side note, I think there is something not completely right about the dashed vs. full diamond; for example if you designate in AUTO bombing via the HUD only, it's always dashed, but if you designate a waypoint as TGT then slew it around, you can still slew it and it remains full, unless you TDC depress with an AUTO bomb, in which case it becomes dashed. The waypoint itself is never undesignated either which is weird since the TGT changes but the waypoint obviously remains a constant. I'm sure this will be fleshed out when we get the targeting pod and stuff in though. Edited April 18, 2019 by Jak525
