WOPR Posted March 25, 2022 Posted March 25, 2022 When using the cyclic stick RTS/Depress, the SWAP button only works on the first row (VHF radio) after the active transmit radio has been changed to a different radio. The RTS rocker switch on the EUFD, SWAP works as expected. The work around is to map the RTS rocker switch to the RTS/Depress button on the cyclic.
jayst0r Posted March 25, 2022 Posted March 25, 2022 (edited) This is cold start related on hot start it works. When the RTS/depress button is press last position for Swap from RTS Rocker switch is used for swap. When last position was say second radio than that will swap even though first Radio is currently selected. When RTS Rocker switch is then pressed it is working until RTS/depress is used.

FalcoGer Posted March 28, 2022 Posted March 28, 2022 (edited) It might be related but the radio depress that is supposed to cycle through the radios uses a separate list to the RTS rocker switch. When pressing the rocker switch it switches radio, but it seems like internally there are two states for which radio is selected, and they're not the same. For example you start with VHF selected, then you move the selected radio by the RTS rocker switch to FM2. When you then push the radio depress it switches (presumably from VHF) to UHF instead of to the next in line, which would be HF. When then selecting down on the rocker switch again it selects HF even though UHF was selected, but the last rocker switch selected radio was FM2, from which such a change would make sense. To reproduce: 1. Start aircraft, don't touch anything radio related 2. RTS Rocker down 3x, selects FM2 3. Radio switch depress, selects UHF, expected HF 1.

WOPR Posted April 3, 2022 Author Posted April 3, 2022 (edited) It seems like this was supposed to be fixed per the patch notes. However, it persists in MP servers, both the dedicated beta and the traditional versions. It works as intended in single-player. Edited April 3, 2022 by WOPR grammar fix
