Sandman1330 Posted December 23, 2021 Posted December 23, 2021 Firstly - great patch guys, I love seeing the Viper come together! I'm not sure if I've found a bug, I want to do more testing but this is what I've found so far. I can set the markpoint using HMCS the first time around. Once I've employed ordnance (Maverick in PRE mode in this case, haven't tested much else yet), I cannot get it to switch to HMCS to set a second mark point. Steps to reproduce: Set a markpoint normally using HMCS (works the first time) Select that mark as your stpt, slew the pod onto the target Fire a maverick in PRE mode using the TGP. Now, pressing 7 (mkpt), then using TMS up long will not switch to the HCMS for mark point creation (no circle in the HMCS). I've tried switching out of A-G, switching mavs out of pre, TMS down, etc - nothing I can figure out yet will allow me to set a second markpoint using HMCS once I've fired a mav in PRE mode.

Sandman1330 Posted December 23, 2021 Author Posted December 23, 2021 (edited) Ok, so a workaround: the second time creating the mark point, use the dobber seq to cycle through HUD, TGP, and the other sources, back to HUD. Then you’ll be able to create a second markpoint. It seems to be related to the (not a) bug in this video, where I got the workaround from.

GrEaSeLiTeNiN Posted December 26, 2021 Posted December 26, 2021 (edited) [Latest Open Beta] I find to create a 2nd (or next) HMCS markpoint, I have to undesignate (TMS Aft) twice to return the small circle to the HUD (FPM) first. Then TMS Fwd long again (Markpoint to HMCS), TMS Fwd to ground stablilize, then TMS Fwd again to designate the 2nd (or next) markpoint. Basically restarting the process. This is not so in the case of HUD markpoints where you can continue designating a 2nd, 3rd, etc, markpoint without having to undesignate first.

This only seems to work if you come out of PRE mode first (switch mavs to VIS mode). If you stay in PRE mode, you can't get the HMCS to "activate" for markpoints.
