reported earlier MAV Locking lamp posts / GMT ground radar

[FOXFIRE TWOONE]

I am locking tgt with agm within ten miles as set on mfd's but many of time's the agm will lock on light post along roadways. If the ground radar is not

supposed to lock on stationary tgt's why is this happening. I can wait a little longer to verify that it is indeed a moving tgt but by that time I am closer

than I like. Is this a bug or what I will have to settle for.

 

Thanks

Please attach a short track replay showing an example and we will check it.

Here is a trk file. It is a self created miss in the caucasus map.

 

The first agm find's tgt the second an empty spot on ground and third and forth ( light post ).

would it be possible to have a vanilla mission a reproduce this?

I have a similar problem. If I set up a group of movers, and there's an "Armed House" (which is a building) nearby, sometimes (but not always) the radar locks onto the building. I have not yet found a pattern to when this happens. Minimalistic trk attacked. First lock gets the vehicles, second one locks on the building. When testing this over and over again, the results are slightly different (sometimes it works fine, sometimes I can never get a lock on the actual movers). Maybe it depends on relative angle or something, I don't know.

Thank you for the track Bankler 

I am seeing it in your track, but when I try my own its ok. It is a strange one. 

 

If anyone has other examples I will continue to look into it. 

 

thanks

I removed all ships and crew from miss and flew numerous times and I didn't get any lgt pole lock's but did have to cage/uncage several times to get

the mav to lock on radar tgt. It seems totally based on contrast and or angle.

This issue is reported, lamp posts have created a problem for Mavericks for a while. 

 

I am unable to reproduce the GMT issue however. 

 

So what I think you are experiencing is the already reported Maverick issue. 

 

I have edited the title to reflect the lamp post issue, and marked reported earlier. 

 

thank you
