Communications menu does not appear after takeoff

[skypickle]

I tried these two missions:

Although I can communicate while on the ground, nothing appears when I hit the key combo for communications. How do I communicate with my wingmen?

Which key combo do you use?

The default. I also bound the comm menu to a button on my controller and it too does not work when airborne. Interestingly, i also bound the commands ‘cover me’ and ‘attack my target’ to buttons. The wingman only responds to ‘cover me’. This must be an issue with mission design. Should i post this elsewhere?

On my way home, I'll try to test.
By default combo, do you mean only backslash, "\" or "RAlt + \", probably doesn't matter since you tried with a direct button.

In the air, you must use the "Comm Push to Talk (call radio menu)" assignment.

The argument goes:

The comm or Communication menu (\) button is just you talking out loud, so in the air nobody would be able to hear you.

The push to talk button is you keying up the radio to talk to whoever. You can usually also use this command on the ground but power to the radio system is required.
For the Mossie you must open a window to talk to the ground crew using either keybinds.

It's a standard ED have adopted for a while, but it's confusing because not all modules adhere to that standard.
