[KNOWN] No GPS for Red ?

[Weta43]

Anyone else flying as Red after changing to 2.5.5.32299 ?

 

Red doesn't seem to have any GPS. Inertial navigation is fine, but the aircraft doesn't know where it is in the world.

The only difference between these two screenshots is that the aircraft was swapped between Aus and Russia.

Aus correctly sees the route as starting beneath the aircraft, Russia sees the route beginning 4,000 NM WNW …

 

I've tester air, runway and hot ramp starts, but not cold, and it's the same for each.

 

As you fly or change WP in the Russian aircraft the direction and distance to the next WP changes correctly (allowing for the 4,000 NM displacement) so the INS is fine, just the 'origin' in the calcs is incorrect.

 

I wondered if this was to do with

Other Hornet items in work include (…) GPS full simulation and alignment

 

& in DCS Red use GLONASS, and there's no alignment off GLOSNASS ?

 

If so - if we can have a fantasy pylon and Igla loadout on the Ka-50, how about either automatically switching to GLONASS if Red (& just pretending it's a compatible system), or just assuming the Red side uses Western GPS ?

We are aware of the issues and it's being worked on this weekend.

 

Thanks
