Hi,

Currently it's not possible to create mark points with TGP area track.

DCS 2.7.10.19473
Track attached

Steps taken:
- Air spawn with 2xGBU-12 + TGP
- Select A-G mode
- Switch to CCRP
- Select TGP as SOI
- Slew around, switch to area track with TMS right.
- Press MARK.

Expected behavior:
Same as with point track:
- MARK page opens with TGP selected.  
- TMS up increments markpoint number and stores a mark.

Actual behavior:
- Plane switches to VIS mode
- HUD as SOI
- MARK page opens with HUD selected.

I think current behavior is what it should do when SOI is not tracking and you press mark. But area is just another mode of tracking (just like it says in documentation, including DCS: F-16C Viper Early Access Guide p. 180), so point and area should work the same.

Best regards,
itn

Hi, 

I will ask the team but do you have any evidence area track can be used? if so please PM me. 

My understanding is only point track in CCRP can be used, as TMS up is being used to process and generate the mark point data, if you dont use the mark point on button press.

thank you

Sent a PM. Regarding the switchology I'd guess if you're in MARK TGP, TGP SOI, AREA track, TMS up simply creates the mark and does not command point track.
