fixed JDAMs stay aligned after rearming

[Weidlich]

Trackfile or log not required, easy to reproduce. 

You start a mission with jdams.

first problem : when you power them on they only align when the sms page with the jdam menu is visible. When you select a different weapon the alignment timer stops where you left it. You need to cycle back to the jdam weapon to continue alignment.

 

second bug:

when you drop the jdams, then land and rearm with the same jdams again the pylons stay aligned. They should be unaligned. (hornet had the same bug for a very long time last year).

 

Hope you can reproduce.

Don't know if it has been reported, or does this need a track but

JSOW, JDAM (AGM-154A, GBU-31, BGU-38, CBU-105) will not continue alignement when not on SMS page or when not in AG mode and they are powered ON.

I don't see any transfer alignment progress with any of those weapons. They are just insta-aligned in zero seconds. But if/when that alignment process is modeled they should indeed continue the process regardless of being selected.

Please provide your evidence in a PM if needed

exactly what I reported a few weeks ago:

(different headline but read the problem description. I never saw it fixed in any changelog)

Confirm that at least JDAM will not continue alignment while not in AG master mode. I was unable to get the alignment requirement to be skipped (bug) by rearming.

Strange, it seemed to work for me yesterday. I'll pay close attention next time.

merged threads, already reported

 

thanks

Was wondering if it's correct as is, when trying to align JDAMs or JSOWs I must have A/G mode selected plus I need to use/select the exact bomb for it to align, if I go out of A/G mode or switch to another type of bomb the alignment will stop until I come back to that exact bomb.

 

Thanks beforehand,

Das.

I noted this too and thought that this must be a bug. Why would one design a system that locks the MFD page to that specific action before it's completed.
