[REPORTED]TGP Auto Lase Function

[bart]

After todays open beta update 2.5.6.55363 when trying to drop GBU-12 using the Auto Lase function on the TGP and a lase time set to 10 seconds, there appears to be no count down to impact on the TGP following weapon release, therefore the Auto Lase function will not work. The laser fires immediately after weapon release for a couple of seconds and then stops. You have to intervene and fire the laser manually otherwise it misses the TGT.

 

If I turn off the Auto Lase function and use the Latch function and fire the laser manually it hit the intended target every time.

 

Bug seems to be the missing count down to impact timer on the TGP. I didn't have time to try any other laser weapons, just the GBU-12's. This was also on a MP server. I didn't have time to try a single player mission or flight.

Just curious but did you try higher with a longer lase time?

 

10 Seconds is kinda short.

I confirm this bug.

 

I tested with auto lase times 12, 15 and 20 secs, but this is not the problem.

 

When closing on target HUD doesn't show "predicted time of fall" timer, it's 0. When droping bomb "0" flashes and laser fires for 2 secs, then goes off.

 

Manual lasing works ok.

and if you choose to manually lase, you no longer have TTI to judge when to turn on the laser. Issue appears to be linked. Without a TTI, the autolase function has no idea when to fire.

Confirmed! Missing TTI. No Autolase. I always use Auto at 10 seconds from 10,000 feet. Makes sense if it is because of missing TTI.

Confirming no TTI Countdown in either Auto Lase or Manual Lase...

 

There's only a flashing ZERO next to the "L" where the countdown should be.

 

Track Attached.

No GBU TTI Countdown.trk
