Using the Targeting Pod for the F16 and following a moving target.

[Justin1Ntime]

I was just practicing finding moving ships with the FCR Radar in sea mode. Then I would move to the targeting pod when my radar would find them. I would push TMS up and get the little box that would lock and follow the moving target so I could drop some LGBs.  The first few times this went ok. But on a 3rd try and every try after that, when I am using the TGP, I push up on the TMS and get the box but it no longer follows the target. It just stays in one spot and my ship sales out of the box. Did I push a wrong button because I cannot get it to work any more at all? I can manually slew/and move it with RDR cursor switch to keep my target in the box but it used to do that automatically. I would Push up on the TMS and the little box would stay on top of my moving target and I could focus on just using the laser/dropping the bombs and keeping the TGP pointed in the right direction.  What am I doing wrong? This worked the first few times I tried it today.

Thanks Much

Did you try to undesignate the target with TMS Down? Try more times, sometimes it just not grab it. Also try useing TMS Left to switch between 3 types of polaritues, maybe with some other will work better. If this does not work, please save the track and paste the file in here.
