[NEED TRACK] TDC depress on radar contacts not providing LTWS then STT

[Legendofdino]

Yesterday night while flying I noticed across multiple MSI tracks which were showing on the radar page that if I TDC depressed over a trackfile the radar b sweep would scan rapidly over there area for. A few seconds then timeout and go back to searching. Previously the first depress would designate a LTWS trackfile followed by a second depress which would STT the track. This was not happening at all and only on 1 out of 10 tracks would actually find the target and go direct to STT.

We need a short track with bug reports please.

You are attempting to STT a track your radar hasn't "found" yet. Look into HAFU symbology on wags' link16 video.

Try disabling the MSI option on the DATA subpage and then you'll see which targets are from only donors and which are actually detected by your radar. It should help you figure out if you're trying to lock a detected target or just a donated MSI trackfile.

Thanks. That was the problem for me. I was trying to lock up an MSI target on the RDR ATTK that my radar hadn't picked up. Are these the 3/4 size HAFUs?

 

On a related note, the radar doesn't seem to pick up far away targets very well like at 50-60nm? This normal I guess?
