[REPORTED] Aiming sight getting stuck randomly with stabilizer enabled.


Recommended Posts

Hi :)

 

I made you a lil video to really try to illustrate the issue :

 

 

Basically, DCS 2.5.6.57264 Open Beta 2020-11-04 (but happens for several months now, dev team "fixed" stab some months ago because it got shaky when on the move, it happens since. I thought it was a mod issue on my side but with a brand new clean install without mods, it too happens with Abrams and any other stab vehicle).

 

So the problem :

 

Sometimes, randomly, when stab is enabled (V key), aiming gets stucked. The only way is to disable stab or to wait sometimes up to 10 seconds to get it back.

 

To reproduce it, the best for you is to get in the same situation than on my vid : Gudauta airport, one abrams. Get max zoom / Aim with stab enabled a bit above trees / hold for few seconds (5 to 10) / then try to move.

 

Again, it happens randomly, usually, after globally one minute trying to reproduce, you end having it. Be patient testing it please, it happens on two different computers on my side. If you notice even a non responsive behavior for half a second, then it's this. No binding conflict of course I checked.

 

It happens quite often, in miz, it has become a real problem as it obviously always happens when you're in fight......

 

Ok, I hope it can be solved, again, this one is a critic one.

 

Thanks in advance lads ;)

The issues I've seen is that if you aim down, it seems like you can continue aiming below the point the gun can aim... meaning if you have to aim up, you have to pull more, as to get out of that deadzone you got below the gun

'Shadow'

 

Everybody gotta be offended and take it personally now-a-days

I am not seeing the issue you describe, obviously, you should turn off the stabilization before making any major movements of the turret, but all testing I did hitting the V key immediately turned it off. I do think maybe we need an indication that it's on.

 

Hi, you don't seem to have understood the issue.

 

Having the stab enabled, so V key has been pressed once, the aiming simply randomly stucks for few seconds. Problem is that it can happen anytime even when you need to move just a tiny bit the turret, which leads to the issue.

 

Try to send a telemetry signal, max range (5000m by default) to the sky or to trees. Wait 1 sec after telemetry, then move, repeat and repeat and after I think 10 times you'll have experimented it at least once, even if it looks like some kind a very brief lag, it's this issue. Problem is that is can last for half a second as well as sometimes more than 10.

 

It looks like there's some kind of link between telemtry and stab itself, leading them to glitch each other. (Forgot to talk about telemtry in first post sorry, for me this part is simply natural...)

Good video, I will take another look now that I see what you guys mean, thanks!

 

And actually, to add, this is similar to issues I have with CA control in general, that it doesn't always limit to the gun movements, so I do see these issues elsewhere as well. I will do up a big report on this about improving them for sure.

I can reproduce with the Challenger II, if you continue trying to elevate the gun past its physical limits (either high or low) it'll stay there until you 'undo it' so to speak.

 

It's a bit of a pain when using a joystick, as you need to anticipate when to stop pulling the stick back so as to stop it sticking.
