[NO BUG]SuperCarrier TACAN not functioning

[Pac-Man]

Hello All!

 

I have been unable to use the Super Carrier Tacan since the 07/15 update. I have tried both the Harrier and the Hornet and the signal can't be tracked. I have confirmed it is set up correctly in the ME.

** Correction *** It will not activate UNTIL the first waypoint with the activate TACAN command has been reached.

 

So - you can't set ACTIVATE Tacan on the starting Waypoint. You must set WP1 directly in front of the boat if you want Tacan active at the start of the mission.

 

Thanks for all the hard work guys!!

Hm, I can set the Tacan from starting point without any issues. Works as supposed to me.

Works for me from waypoint 0. Latest beta, single player.

There is definitely a gremlin here somewhere. I played the Dire Straits missions last night, but instead of landing on the airfield I returned the the carrier, and the Tacan, which clearly displayed THR, was over at WP0 even thought the boat was nearly at WP1, although my range was correct which is how I noticed it, my range started increasing even thought I was headed straight for the tacan symbol on the HSI.

There is a known bug where the carrier turns off its TACAN/ICLS during waypoint changes. Every waypoint needs to have the TACAN/ICLS action.

TACAN Is functioning correctly as per this report, it just needs to be assigned to the first waypoint you wish the TACAN to activate on.

 

We do have a long standing issue with TACAN Turning off in very long MP sessions, you can over come this by setting the TACAN to active on subsequent waypoints.

 

thank you
