Problem F-18 Datalink/Position Alignement Red Coalition

[Wolf4Pm]

Hi all,

 

I am Wolf4Pm, i am the owner of the VFA-1 Wolfpack server, and I would like to know if anyone know how to fix this problem.

If we are playing F-18 spawning as cold start in the red coalition, we encounter problem with the Datalink/Position alignement, the datalink is working but it's displaced by 300NM to the north, the only way to see a part of it is to fly the F-18 with the SA page with a scale of 320NM in uncentred view.

I think the problem is due to a problem of alignement, because of that the Datalink in the red coalition is almost unusable, we are unable to do navigation with waypoint, no map view, unable to do CCRP and more...

As I saw this problem occurs only in Caucasus in the red coalition and with cold start spawn with F-18 and F-14.

The F-14 encounters only Navigation Problems, no Datalink Problem.

Don't need to ask me if i do alignement at every startup, because the answer is yes.:doh:

The thing which is strange is that the problem occurs only in the red coaltion, in the blue one there is no problem at all.

 

If you want to try by yourself, i let you make a multiplayer caucasus mission where you spawn as a cold start in Kutaisi in the red coalition in the F-18, (you have to add SAM site on your mission to be able to see them on the SA page) and let me know if you have the same problem, or just join "VFA-1 Wolfpack Dedicated Server" to have a look of the problem.

 

If anyone have an idea to solve this problem please let me know.:helpsmilie:

Best regards Wolf4Pm.

Are you carrying out a waypoint '0' position update as Redfor Hornets don't have access to GPS ?

What about carrier ops? Waypoint 0 is set to our spawn coordinates, but if we spawn on a moving carrier we will already haved moved away from those coordinates once we can perform the positon update as part of the startup procedure. :huh:
