Unable to slew MAV-F with ATFLIR attached

[Hammer1-1]

Ill post a track next chance I get, but I get this issue:

ATFLIR designate search area - MAVF page set to SOI - Uncage - MAVF slews to ATFLIR aimpoint and thats it. I have to designate a target for the MAVF with the ATFLIR, havent had this issue with the litening pod. Yes I have the realistic TDC slew cursor tick box in the special tab in settings unticked

(you) Haven't, or do not, have an issue with the lightning pod?

No problem with the litening pod

Following.

 

Thus far, the only way I've found to allow me to independently slew the Mav after using ATFLIR to find the target is if I switch back to the ATFLIR and undesignate; however, this means the next Mav can't be slewed to the same spot again. So the workflow looks like this:

 

Use ATFLIR to find target, designate

Uncage maverick, maverick slews to that target

switch back to ATFLIR, undesignate

switch back to Maverick, now I can slew the maverick independently.

However, after firing, the next maverick isn't pointed in the same location anymore as I've undesignated the target.

 

So, to ripple multiple mavericks on a single group of vehicles, the only real way to do it is:

 

Use ATFLIR to designate first target, uncage maverick, fire when it locks

Back to ATFLIR, move to next target, designate

Back to maverick, cage then uncage again, lock target and fire

Repeat.

 

I'm not sure if this is realistic, it seems a better workflow would be to use ATFLIR to find a group of vehicles, then hand off to maverick and be able to use the maverick to target the individual vehicles...

Thats a horrible work flow. Guess Ill stick to the litening pod for handing off targets if I have mavericks, and use the ATFLIR for when i have serious long range work to do.

Maybe there's an easier way to do it that I haven't figured out yet

It should be identical to the litening pod, as from what Ive read theres not much difference between the two aside from the obvious.
