In multiplayer on servers . 

Petrov will not lock onto single T80 under a tree . Also with River or water in back ground crosshairs skip around   .

Targets in Tree lines gets locked but not a lone T80 Tank in open ground in front of the tree line . 

The Crosshairs seem to dance around the lone T80 target and yet its  picking up the back drop targets in the tree line  . 

Petrov seems confused . !!!

Is there away to put my crosshair onto the target I want to engage and get it to lock flying as pilot . Surly this is possible . ?

Also a target list appears " which is the nearest target to choose if list is long . 

If I choose TANK1 which I'm hoping is dead center and is the target I want to attack first , why is Petrov choosing target off my line of sight as TANK1. ???

 

Tried coping the track files but its all out of sync due to multiplayer .

Hi

 

we would need to see a track replay to know for sure. We are improving Petrovich so it maybe worth waiting for coming updates as it is work in progress.

 

thanks

@BIGNEWY Check the server [4YA] TRAINING 24/7 SYRIA (CAPTURE BASES), take a Mi-24P slot from Golan Heights, fly to the northern area of Sea of Galilee. In the plain area of Ad Dardarah there is a base with large radio masts and bunkers (guarded by a SAM). A bit south west of it, stands a single Merkava tank in the wide open fields. Petrovich is not able to see it, no matter from which direction i'm coming from. This is not a single problem, i've encountered it many times now since release. For whatever reason Petrovich is not able to see units on ground in plain sight.

Yesterday had this issue again. I took notice what unit I was experiencing it with. In my case it was a T55 he couldn’t see in plain sight. When switching to a different area with targets with other tank types and trucks he picked them up straight away. 
 

Anyone seeying this happen with T55’s?

I had this issue flying on the BlueFlag multiplayer server - Syria, yesterday evening, after the last patch was released. Petrovich seems confused scanning nowhere near where I ordered him to, and having difficulties finding the targets before I have to break off due to lethal distance. In singleplayer, this behavior is not present-Petrovich is scanning exactly where I point him towards, and he finds his targets relatively fast ("human" lag taken into account)

I had this issue today as well, flying on the BlueFlag Syria server. I engaged an enemy FARP, where they still had 2x Leopard 1A5, 1x Shilka and 1x HMMWV TOW all standing in the open. Petrovich was happy to target the Leopards, but was entirely oblivious of the Shilka and the HMMWV. Even at pretty close range and my command to look exactly at them he was not able to pick them up at all, which was pretty frustrating. The issue persisted even after I respawned and went for the FARP again.

Oh, so that's the issue? That makes sense, as this was also the case when I had this issue, as there are comms towers at every objective on the BlueFlag server.

I really hope this gets addressed soon!

I've seen this issue many times now. Everytime there are comms towers or bunkers nearby Petrovich seems unable to target enemy vehicles in the vicinity. This is a big problem on the blue flag server, as there are comms towers at almost every objective, which is really frustrating.

Hi, the static objects issue is fixed internally and I will ask the team to check maybe something was missed in the merge. 

 

If you have short track replay examples please attach them, its impossible for me to reproduce issues without them. 

The shorter the track the better, scripted servers with mods can not be used in our dev version, so if it something that can be reproduced in a simple mission I am happy to take a look at the track, if it does not play correctly I convert the track to a MIZ and try to reproduce on my own. 

 

thanks

Hi, I have the track but I cant upload it since this forum is limited to 5MB.

However Petrovich is able to track targets during all weapon range missions but he is unable to track the targets during mission "Battle for Zugdidi" for some reason. 100% of the time he cant track anything there.

You can replicate it by selecting Instant Action - Caucasus - Battle for Zugdidi mission

The problem is time of day. A few months ago they added the function to have Petrovich not able to spot if the lighting isnt good enough. You need to wait until the sun rises more or use illumination flares

Yes, you are right, Ive just figured it out a while ago. Nevertheless I think that Petrovich should be tuned a little bit, because that mission is during dawn, visibility is perfect (check attached picture) and I can spot targets miles away, Petrovich cant.

I understand that this Hind version doesn't have a night targeting system but I would suggest to tune him a little bit to spot targets even during dawn,dusk and give Petrovich limitations during night time (in complete darkness).

Yes it could use tuning
