When attempting to designate a Waypoint with WPDDSG the point moves to a position in front of the aircraft and the LITENING pod slews to this point instead of the waypoint position.

 

In these screenshots the waypoint is off to starboard and move in 17NM in front of aircraft.

 

This has changed in the latest Open Beta release 2.7.126430.

This track file (deleted/incomplete - see below) shows the problem (link used as track file too large to upload 44MB).

 

Test flown in Multiplayer with LITENING, 2 x MAVF, 4 x JDAM. Target near WP2. Selected weapon JDAM in TGT TOO. On first attack with target to left of track, WPDSG worked as expected and FLIR slewed to WP. On second run, again abeam of target. deselecting TGT and then WPT plus WPDSG places TGT ahead of aircraft along track. Test terminated immediately after this event.

Have the Same issue. Waypoint designate will bit slew the TGP pod and instead “creates” the target point in front of the Aircraft. Apparently the problem resolves if you switch TGP to another MFD and back? No track file but looks like someone above posted

Above linked file failed to include full details due to 10 minute record delay on Multiplayer server.

 

This track file does cover the problem. File size 60MB. Open beta 2.7.1.

 

Test flown in Multiplayer with LITENING, 4 x JDAM, 1 x HARM and 1 x AGM65F. Target near WP2. After take off selected JDAM in TGT TOO mode. FLIR slewed to correct target which was attacked with JDAM followed by HARM in self-protection mode. Turned to west and deselected WP2. Reselected WP2 steer and WPDSG pressed. Target appeared in front of aircraft with in-range circle. Tried this twice with same fault. Used Sensor Control to select HUD as primary display. Repeated WP2 reselection and designation. Target set correctly to WP2. This is the workaround reported by others. Got shot down and waited 12 mins before terminating mission to ensure correct recording.

I'm not sure if this is related, but I noticed that when you carry GPS-guided bombs, and they are populated with coordinates, then that has become your target-point. Don't know if that is "correct as is". But try to deselect the JDAMS and then try again.

The problem appears whether or not the weapon selected. It is the selection of the navigation waypoint and its designation as the target where things have changed in 2.7.1.

I'm having the exact same issues.  It seems to happen after my first bombing run.  On the initial mission the TGP will slew to the targeted waypoint as it should.  After returning to the airfield for rearm and refuel, the TGP doesn't seem to want to work correctly.  Whenever i try to designate it to the next waypoint by pressing the WPDSG button it will designate a location a few miles out in front of my aircraft.  I can break the lock and re-designate targets with the Helmet system and all seems to work until I want to re-designate the actual WP itself as the target area.  So far I've had this happen in the Nevada map and the Syria map

Exactly the same issues here with both ATFLIR & LITENING.  Thanks for posting 👍

Track file must be short and in single player to play back more less correctly. 

I tried to reproduce but had no luck so far. Will try again.

please include a short track replay showing the issue. 

Hi @BIGNEWY - this track cannot be as short as always, due to the fact that this issue is reproducible only after rearming. 

 

So, on my first test attempt I flown the mission - (air start) and I was able to designate and have targeting pod looking at correct spot (Waypoint 2), then landed at friendly airbase, rearmed, changed the pod, in the air I turned on the TGP and Waypoint 2 designation is not correctly passed to the pod. 

 

In the attached track:

 

1.Air start on final to Incirlik - I am able to auto slew my pod to waypoint 2 (via HSI pushbutton)

2. Land and rearm & refuel

3. Take off and wait for the pod to come online.

4. Use HSI WPDSG to designate waypoint 2  - no luck, pod looks ahead -  however I noticed also, 

5. Designate spot in the ground with the pod - then undesignate, then use HSI to designate waypoint WPDSG and the pod slews to the spot which it previously had designated.

6. Undesignate, have the pod to follow velocity vector, use HSI to designate waypoint 2 - pod looks ahead. 

 

I tried to keep the track as short as possible, but had to land for rearm otherwise not able to replicate.
