Its rather complex bug they say so they need more times to fix it.

Soon been 4 months since initial bugreport :sad_2:

DCS server-admins: please adhere to a common sense gaming industry policy as most server admins throughout the industry do. (After all there's enough hostility on the internet already which really doesn't help anyone. Thanks.)

What are the letters that appear with the tgt tracks typically when the IFF seems to be messed up ? Those red guys are actually friendlies btw.

The letters above the track is the callsign of the locking aircraft, using the first and last letters. So in this case, PC31, SD12 & SD14 would be Pontiac 3-1 as well as Springfield 1-2 and 1-4. These letters and numbers can be changed via the ICP through the D-Link page.

 

 

As I've mentioned previously in this thread, friendly contacts turn red when they're locked by friendlies. So when someone locks a friend for a rejoin or similar, that friendly will be red until the lock is dropped.

So, is this still being worked on? Currently you can't have Hornets and Vipers on the same side in Multiplayer as the Hornets will feed the Viper with bad information, showing friendlies as hostile. Any update on a potential fix after all this time?

Yes, the fix is in testing.
How did you know? Are you one of beta testers now? If so, nice. Congrats
