NEECH Posted August 7, 2022 Posted August 7, 2022 I think this may have been established as a bug base on what I found searching, but I'm not 100% sure. I'm well under 5K stalking targets at near hover. I take a few out, but then the TADS begins to show '9999' range to all targets. There's no clutter – direct, clear line-of-sight. George states he's engaging and never states 'out of rage' because we're not. The missile never fires after this point, and I don't know if there's a way to reset this behavior or if it's just a bug. It's frustrating as all hell, as it took an extended amount of time to get into this firing position, just to be stuck there with no option to correct it. I end up quitting in frustration. 1
Floyd1212 Posted August 7, 2022 Posted August 7, 2022 I don't think the other posts related to 9999 range are for targets you know to be within range, so this sounds like something different. Is this SP or MP? If SP, what happens when you hop in the front seat and lase targets yourself? Also, this is where a track file would be immensely helpful for other people to try and reproduce the same results in that moment...
NEECH Posted August 7, 2022 Author Posted August 7, 2022 It's single player. I never thought to jump into the CPG's seat. I've actually never tried that during a session. Once I pick a role, I stick to it, plus my CPG setup has been neglected as I try to become a better pilot. Here's a link to download the track. It's 100MB+. Let me know if that's what's needed. And please excuse the long startup time as I was messing with DCSTheWay and waypoints on the map. https://1drv.ms/u/s!AierUjO34ovtm5tQvInrn0RpNgW9KA?e=wkGg2N If you (can) jump to the last 5 minutes, you'll see the issue. Thanks for looking, @Floyd1212.

Thanks for looking, @Floyd1212. Have you been able to reproduce the issue yourself? That way you could save and share a smaller (few mb) trackfile and it would make life a bit easier for those trying to help.

Solution NEECH Posted August 9, 2022 Author Solution Posted August 9, 2022 I figured it out… I'm truly embarrassed… I had set Hellfire to LOAL. It seems, when LOAL is active, no range is displayed until the missile is fired. It’s still weird that George wouldn't fire at that point, though. Maybe the wrong Hellfire type or the missile wasn't ready for some reason. In any case, I never use LOAL so no problem and I know what to look for now. Thanks for the help, all. 1
