hein22 Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 I'm seeing the lines of this feature green instead of red. Am I doing something wrong? 1 Stay safe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shimmergloom667 Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 (edited) TXDSG dashed or solid (for flight members) lines are supposed to be green, to the best of my knowledge.

I see both green. Manual says red is the color, and Wags video on YT as well. Stay safe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure that has changed soon after Wags recorded that Video. Has been green lines for a long time now. i7 - 9700K | 32 GB DDR4 3200 | RTX 2080 | VKB Gunfighter Mk II /w MCG Pro | Virpil T-50CM2 Throttle | TrackIR 5 | VKB Mk.

Seems off, but I'm not sure. Stay safe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harker Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 I've got nothing for colored vs green-only lines, but another TXDSG issue in MP is the fact that you see another player's Rank 1 target with a dashed line, regardless if the player has marked them as L&S or not. IIRC, dashed line should show up after the target is their L&S, not before. The vCVW-17 is looking for Hornet and Tomcat pilots and RIOs. Join the vCVW-17 Discord.

The manual though could have been updated easily. I'm not trying to be funny here, just find this strange since there is no other topic in the forums (at least that I could find) saying something about this being changed. Conspiracy for sure xd Stay safe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hein22 Posted October 25, 2021 Author Share Posted October 25, 2021 Another thing that confuses me is that since now they are all dashed lines, they get mixed up with the flight plan seq. That's why I was more inclined to think it was a bug rather than intended. But again, I am not sure. Stay safe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shimmergloom667 Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Hey @BIGNEWY, sorry for tagging you here, but maybe you can take a look at this: in both Wags' video and in the manual, the TXDSG lines should be red (solid for flight, dashed for allied flights over L16) while ingame everything is dashed green. That must have changed between Wags' vid and now, do you happen to have an info what is correct? If green is indeed correct then the manual needs an update! Thanks a lot! 2 i7 - 9700K | 32 GB DDR4 3200 | RTX 2080 | VKB Gunfighter Mk II /w MCG Pro | Virpil T-50CM2 Throttle | TrackIR 5 | VKB Mk.

Santi871 Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 The manual needs updating, since the game was corrected shortly after the feature was released. The lines should be green, also a PPLI's designation is shown with a dashed line, while a solid line means it's under missile attack. Similar to the F-16. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lines are always dashed, so I guess a bug exists when they launch a missile. Stay safe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
