[W.I.P]Maverick Automatic Handoff TMS logic

[Charly_Owl]

Hi,

 

In the DCS F-16 manual, two paragraphs mention that for Automatic Handoff, using "TMS right will hand off the lock to the AGM-65 if the target contrast and size meets criteria of missile lock.".

 

However, the current DCS Open Beta logic currently has the Auto Handoff function associated with the TMS FWD SHORT (which is also what is mentioned in the youtube Maverick tutorial by Matt Wagner).

 

So... which is it? Is automatic handoff performed with TMS FWD or TMS RIGHT?

I will check and get back to you, not all of the mavericks can use automatic hand off so that maybe the reason.

That's a good question, I'm also wondering about that.

In SpudKnocker's video, he uses TMS forward _long_ !

Handoff begins when TGP switches to POINT track, so TMS up is correct. TMS right will be added soon to repeat handoff (not in OB for now)

 

Thanks
