fixed [REPORTED]AUTO - target diamond vs release line. (possible symbology error)

[BarTzi]

Hi guys,

 

I recently watched a clip from Jetstream that might indicate a small error that relates to the symbology in AUTO mode.

 

As depicted in Jetstream, the target diamond should be displayed above the release line - in such a way that the line never covers the inner part of the diamond.

 

The following pictures from the show will help you understand what I'm talking about:

 

Watch the places where the release line intersects with the target diamond.

 

 

 

Additionally- you can watch the full clip here:

(start at the timestamp and watch what happens as the diamond crosses the release line both when it's full and when it's dashed).

 

In DCS, however- it's the other way around. This makes it difficult when you want to mark a new target, since the line obscures the new target position (the dot inside the dashed diamond)

 

 

I know that Jetstream isn't the best source, and that you need evidence from the USN Lot20 - but I think it's worth looking into.

I will see what I can find out, it maybe a feature of a particular version.

 

thanks

Thanks for looking into it Bignewy.

 

Here's an additional link

(VFA-113 from 2004) which shows the same behavior of the target diamond. However, due to the poor quality of the video, to notice it you have to slow the video down (X0.25-X0.5 in youtube speed settings) Edited June 16, 2020 by BarTzi

Thanks

 

I have reported to the team, it is however a low priority item currently.

 

thank you
