[W.I.P]Laser behaving with LATCH

Wesjet · August 2, 2019

Noticed originally in MP (every time) - my laser behaves as if it has a latch mode.

Depress trigger and laser is on and stays on until the trigger is depressed again.

So far I have only repeated this once out to two attempts in SP. The first attempt it worked as described, requiring the trigger to be held. When it behaves like a latch, I have had weapons guide successfully while hands free from the stick - so it is not a label issue.

I am not sure if you are able to view what inputs are being used, beyond the RCtrl+Enter axis display, but track is attached anyway.

I am using the second detent on my HOTAS Warthog trigger for this, and it is also reproducible using the keyboard.

Hi

The laser trigger is W.I.P at the moment, we are likely to get manual and automatic at some point in the future.

Thanks

For anyone not seeing the lazer latch with one press on / one press off

please try deleting the trigger key assignment and then reassign it with the same key press.

let me know if you see a difference

Are you referring to remapping the trigger or to the OSB PB?

I'd also like to say that I think the laser should fire with the 1st stage of the trigger, not the 2nd, like we have now. I'm not sure, but it might be worth asking the SMEs about it. It'd certainly be easier to hold than the 2nd stage.

Dont worry it is being checked, which is why we have it marked as W.I.P.

Thanks

I have noticed that it starts out having to hold trigger down for it to switch from L-arm. Then it is like it breaks after first bomb or something to being a on/off instead of being held down.
