Persian Gulf.

@ 1.6k 29 kts Dir 210

@ 33 ft 14kts Dir 210

 

Rain doesn't fall in 210 direction at the carrier deck. I think it's falling at the 311 direction set at 26,000 feet.

87 minutes into my mission:

Notice FPM near the center of the HUD, offset only by the small amount of crosswind normally experienced by lining up to the angled deck, yet the rain is coming in like a hurricane almost perpendicular to my path, from the right to left.

 

Rain direction seems fine during start up and first catapult departure, but shifts to directions that contradict wind flow during the course of the mission.

I've attached a track replay in case the rainfall direction is not clear through the youtube video's compression.

 

 

How to watch the track replay:

 

-Watch it first through from ship view. View track from beginning to end and note the direction of the rainfall.

 

-Watch the track again this time from the cockpit view. Change back to the ship view after the F-18 climbs to 6000 ft and note the change in rain direction. Go back to cockpit view and wait for the F-18 to climb to 30,000 ft, then go back to ship view and note the change in rainfall direction again.

 

Wind direction is not being affected. The wind is staying as set in the mission editor, but the direction of the rainfall becomes contradictory to the wind direction when navigating the 3D space from the cockpit view.

Any updates on this? I flew a multiplayer flight with friends last night and we set rain to test the pretty new Super Carrier deck reflections.

 

Can confirm this bug is still present.
