[NEED TRACK REPLAY]ACM BORE with JHMCS

[bear.is.flying]

Issue: TMS UP does not reliably transition into ACM BORE when using the JHMCS if it is turned on and later turned off.

 

Reproduce:

 

Load any instant action mission. I'm using Free Flight Caucuses. Turn on JHMCS via SYM/INT knob.

 

1) MSL/DGFT switch to DGFT. Radar defaults to ACM 20x30

 

2) Look forward at the HUD.

 

3) TMS UP. Radar is commanded to ACM BORE, but slaved to JHMCS LOS, and stays fixed there. Even if JHMCS reticle is hidden by either DMS AFT LONG or by HUD blanking.

 

BUG #1: If JHMCS is hidden with DMS AFT LONG or HUD blanking, should the radar still slave to the JHMCS LOS, or go straight to ACM BORE at the aircraft boresight?

 

BUG #2: The radar only slaves to the JHMCS LOS the moment TMS UP is depressed. It doesn't follow the JHMCS reticle, even if TMS UP is held down. You have to repeatedly depress TMS UP to update the radar position.

 

4) TMS DOWN. Radar stays in ACM BORE, but now slaves to and scans around the aircraft boresight.

 

6) TMS DOWN. Radar commanded to ACM 60x10.

 

7) TURN OFF JHMCS via SYMBOL/INTENSITY knob.

 

6) TMS UP. Radar is commanded to ACM BORE and slaved to JHMCS LOS (but now the helmet is off!) It should go to Aircraft Boresight. BUG #3
