SLAM station cycle

[Ziptie]

I apologize if this isn't actually a bug.

 

 

So I used the SLAM for the first time today, doing so via the PP and TOO delivery methods.

 

I noticed that after releasing a SLAM (from any station), that station stays selected and doesn't cycle to the next weapon station, like it does for every other store type used on the aircraft (excluding rockets from an individual pod). Instead it requires you to press the STEP OSB to bring up the next station for employment. I did not have the datalink pod on the aircraft, as I was not commanding terminal guidance of the weapon. Thought that maybe it wasn't cycling due to having the possibility of commanding terminal guidance via datalink pod - but wondered if it should automatically cycle to the next weapon station without the pod fitted to the airframe?

 

 

Is this normal behavior, or is this a bug?

 

I don't have a track file to provide, as I was flying for hours doing some testing of weapons and systems ahead of any additions with the upcoming patch/release. However this is an easily repeatable situation.

 

 

Cheers,
