Nealius Posted May 23, 2020 Posted May 23, 2020 After trapping the Hornet, I tap the NWS button to engage NWS, press and hold again for high gains, taxi clear of the deck to the dearming area. Every single time, when I release the NWS button, the radar will lock up an aircraft. Subsequent presses of the NWS button to disengage/engage NWS and NWS HI will cycle through contacts on the radar. I don't believe this should be happening with WoW and on the deck.
Swift. Posted May 23, 2020 Posted May 23, 2020 (edited) This is something I'm curious about too. If you watch the HUD repeater in theis video you can see an L&S box appear on the HUD after he presses the NWS button.

Harker Posted May 23, 2020 Posted May 23, 2020 This should not be happening with WoW. Right now, the entire radar interface seems to ignore the WoW sensor, the only exception being that you get the cross at the bottom left, but the radar is still emitting and locking/tracking.

Tholozor Posted May 23, 2020 Posted May 23, 2020 Another thing is that the radar seems to bypass if the page is even pulled up. What I've found is that if the TDC is assigned to the radar, and then that specific display is changed to another page, the NWS button will still send a command the radar as-if it were still displayed. Pretty sure I can replicate it, I'll try and track a track posted soon.

Santi871 Posted May 23, 2020 Posted May 23, 2020 The functions of undesignate shouldn't change regardless of what screen the TDC priority is on, it depends only on mastermode and wow/woffw
Nealius Posted May 24, 2020 Author Posted May 24, 2020 At this point I'm tempted to turn the radar completely off in the pattern, but in the past I've had the radar continue to show bugged targets/lock targets even when switched off!

Nealius Posted May 24, 2020 Author Posted May 24, 2020 Track required? It's easy enough to test on your own.... Putting radar in SIL mode prevents the radar from locking contacts, but shouldn't WoW automatically do that/turn the radar off?

Unfortunately for you this will not help this bug. I got this yesterday and I had the FCR in SIL long before landing but as soon as I hit NWS to trigger HI with wings folded it locked up a helicopter in front of me. With WoW... With FCR NOT transmitting... In theory.

Got it yesterday on the deck of a SC with FCR in SIL.
