[REPORTED]Weapon formats not available on [TAC] menu

[Jak525]

Weapon formats such as MAV DSPLY, IMAV DSPLY, JDAM DSPLY, JSOW DSPLY, etc. have an issue where their text is not displayed on the [TAC] Menu but the corresponding pushbutton can still be pressed to invoke them. Once they're invoked, or if the regular STORES format is displayed on that display, then the text for the weapon format will be displayed on that display only. Technically this is a graphical bug, and not a functional one.

 

I demonstrate this with the AGM-65F in the .trk and will use it when describing the behavior, but this applies exactly the same to all weapons with their own formats except the HARM. The HARM has special logic from the others where the HARM Format is available on the [TAC] menu at all times, and that works correctly right now.

 

Current behavior:

- When MAVF is selected in the SMS, PB10 can be selected to invoke the IMAV Format on any display.

- Once the IMAV Format has been displayed on a given display at least once, OR if the regular STORES Format has been displayed on a given display at least once, the text "IMAV DSPLY" is placed by PB10.

 

Correct/intended behavior:

- When MAVF is selected in the SMS, PB10 can be selected to invoke the IMAV Format on any display.

- Whenever MAVF is selected in the SMS, the text "IMAV DSPLY" is displayed by PB10. This should happen regardless of whether or not the STORES or IMAV DSPLY has previously been on this display.

 

Thank you!

Hi

 

I have spoken to the team, this is correct as is.

 

Information shows they only appear on TAC menu when the weapon is selected and MC2 is active.

not OP, but this isnt what the bug is about.

the bug is about the text not appearing when the weapon is selected, the button works though even without the text.
