Saruman Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 (edited) Between HSI/SA page, the ownplane symbol is misaligned (again, it was fixed a couple of updates ago, now bug is back). So, in SA you see in front of you aircrafts being behind you. Edited June 2, 2021 by Saruman 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harker Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 There have been two separate issues reported, regarding the positioning of SA page elements: Ownship symbol location (disparity between HSI and SA, reported here: https://forums.eagle.ru/topic/273003-hsisa-page-ownplane-misaligned/?tab=comments#comment-4680387). This issue has been present for a long time. All other element symbols (reported here: https://forums.eagle.ru/topic/277903-the-target-icon-on-the-sa-page-is-misplaced/?tab=comments#comment-4731660). This issue appeared with the latest OB patch. In my testing on previous versions of the game, the SA page worked correctly if line 34 in the SA.lua file in \DCS World\Mods\aircraft\FA-18C\Cockpit\Scripts\Multipurpose_Display_Group\Common\indicator\Pages\MPD\SA\ was corrected from addStrokeSymbol("aircraft_Track_UP", {"stroke_symbols_MDI_AMPCD", "136-aircraft"}, "FromSet", {0, -25}, nil, {{"MPD_SA_ModeShow", MODES.TRACK_UP_MODE}, {"MPD_SA_EXP_PlanePos", LittleCompassInternalRadius}}) to addStrokeSymbol("aircraft_Track_UP", {"stroke_symbols_MDI_AMPCD", "136-aircraft"}, "FromSet", {0, 0}, nil, {{"MPD_SA_ModeShow", MODES.TRACK_UP_MODE}, {"MPD_SA_EXP_PlanePos", LittleCompassInternalRadius}}) It is only a number change for the ownship location, the -25 needs to be corrected to 0. This makes the ownship symbol be in the same position between HSI and SA (corrects Issue 1) and subsequently corrects the wrong positions of all other SA page elements relative to ownship. It seems that in the last patch, the wrong relative position of all other SA elements was "corrected" by artificially displacing them lower, to match the wrongly displaced ownship symbol. But it lead to the problem that they now do no longer correspond to their real locations, as is shown in the bug report for Issue 2. So, whereas before, there was only Issue 1, which was very easy to fix, we now have both Issue 1 and Issue 2. I would like to kindly propose that the position adjustment for SA page elements be reversed in the code and the simple fix for Issue 1 be applied (change a number from -25 to 0). This would be the easiest and cleanest way to solve both issues at once. The vCVW-17 is looking for Hornet and Tomcat pilots and RIOs. Join the vCVW-17 Discord.

Demiurgo Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 (edited) Hi everyone, It seems HSI and SA course lines are not aligned. I don't know if this correct. I also tried to find other reports without luck. Thank you! Edited February 11, 2022 by Demiurgo Format/Typo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tholozor Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 (edited) The problem isn't the course line, the aircraft symbol is displaced between the HSI and SA pages. It's lower on the SA page compared to the HSI.

Harker Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 IIRC, it was fixed some months ago and then reverted back to the current state in the next patch, probably because of different code versions merging. I don't know why, it's literally a number change in a LUA file that controls the position of the ownship symbol.Since then, MIDS symbols (PPLI and trackfiles) in the SA page have been given a downwards offset to account for the wrong position of the ownship symbol, whereas they were previously placed correctly for the correct position of ownship.Finally, there's a bug with the TDC where info is only displayed when you hover over the top half part of the MIDS symbols and over the empty space above it. 1 The vCVW-17 is looking for Hornet and Tomcat pilots and RIOs.

If we leave threads open we get constant +1's and where is my fix posts which make it harder to track new issues as they come in. thanks Forum rules - DCS Crashing?

Tusky Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 Hi all! I don't know if this has been posted before or it is somehow connected to any already reported issue. Sorry for any duplication... When selecting a waypoint, the switching from HSI to SA and back shows a different graphical position of the aircraft in the compass rose of HSI/SA relative to the waypoint. This happens even if the distance/bearing to the waypoint on the upper right corner remains the same and the waypoint symbol (triangle with inscripted circle) on the compass edge does not move. To better appreciate the issue: - switch from HSI to SA and back by using the SCS towards the DDI where the HSI/SA is displayed - have the waypoint relatively closed to the aircraft I have included a track.

Tusky Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 (edited) It is for sure related to the different position of the aircraft symbol within the compass rose in the HSI (where TAS and GS are also indicated) and SA but is this intended? When setting a radial to/from a waypoint, the switching from HSI to SA creates a significant difference (assuming the radial indication/offset on the HSI is the correct one).
