Using Waypoint Designate makes TPOD lock some random location


Sylosis

Recommended Posts

On a few recent occasions I have flown missions where I click the HSI button to designate my waypoint as my target and it sends the TPOD looking god knows where.

 

Just recently, was flying a mission in the Raven One campaign, selected waypoint 8 in the HSI and used Waypoint Designate to slave FLIR to said waypoint. Waypoint was 15 nm away, to the east, but TPOD went looking north at 90nm (distance to target).

I switched back to WPT 7 and back to 8 again, and then it was correct. Anybody has any idea?

We do have wpdsg and mark point issues reported

 

we need a short track replay showing your issue to confirm if it is reported already or not. 

 

thanks

Yeah... was kinda pissed that I got shot after that "possible glitch" and forgot to save the track.

I need to fly it again, so this time, if it does it again, I'll save it and share here.

+1 exact same thing happened to me. I can also provide a track if needed. It happened in my own custom mission on Syria.

You can see a short 30 sec. video with the bug here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ksqdgsqgte3qjmc/PROVA.mp4?dl=0

 

The designation does not happen on the selected wp, but on the position where the TPOD sensor is even if there was no target designation. Also when the designation is removed, the TPOD sensor moves further close to the aircraft.

Same thing if you try to designate the points marked with markpoint, the designation moves to the sensor position of the TPOD.
