dimitriov Posted November 5, 2020 Posted November 5, 2020 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 ;) Nicolas 2
ED Team NineLine Posted November 19, 2020 ED Team Posted November 19, 2020 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. Forum Rules • My YouTube • My Discord - NineLine#0440• **How to Report a Bug**
Shadow KT Posted November 19, 2020 Posted November 19, 2020 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 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...) Nicolas

ED Team NineLine Posted November 23, 2020 ED Team Posted November 23, 2020 (edited) 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. Edited November 23, 2020 by NineLine Forum Rules • My YouTube • My Discord - NineLine#0440• **How to Report a Bug**

Apocalypse31 Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 Have had this same problem - mostly in the Challenger 2 but cannot replicate it. TankSim Discord
Northstar98 Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 (edited) 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.

Shadow KT Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 You can do reproduce with anything that has a stabilizer 'Shadow' Everybody gotta be offended and take it personally now-a-days
ED Team NineLine Posted January 11, 2021 ED Team Posted January 11, 2021 Yeah I think its simple the stabilizer trying to stabilizer your movements, I am sure they just need to make it so it doesn't restrict the movements of the gun in regards to the gunner moving it.
