Comms menu only works on ground. Active pause is not present in controls menu.
JTAC scripts stopped working; Now reports "Passing waypoints" and targets only. I can not contact that same JTAC which worked before update.

I believe the generic comms menu should only work on the ground, like if you were talking to ground crews. Otherwise the comms menu needs to be opened using the Push-To-Talk (PTT) commands to "use the radio".

Some key bindings that were present across all modules have been re-located to a single unitary control group called "UI Layer". This can be found in the drop-down list in the top left corner of the control options where it lists all the different modules. Should be at the top of the list.

As for custom scripts, those will be up to the authors of the scripts themselves to ensure they function properly.

And as a friendly reminder, in the future when creating bug reports, please start a thread for each individual report, and attach a short track file demonstrating the bug behavior (on the Caucasus map if able, it allows more of the dev members to access it since not all have each map installed). If you are simply inquiring about aircraft functions or behavior that you aren't sure is user error or if others can help you, a track file may also allow others to see exactly what you may be doing wrong and may speed the process. Thanks.

I just flew a mission on a MP server, and the Communications Menu "\" seemed to work for me, both on the ground and in the air.

Ah, then I'm probably mistaken.

I found the "Active pause" under UI layer.
But the comms menu work only on ground, and including the JTAC. So I started the dialogue while on ground, but took off before I pressed "Ready to copy" Text still there while airborne, but F1 just affects the view. (F2 took me to outside view allthough the comms menu was still active)
I fired on a truck, and got "Abort abort abort" from JTAC. But I can not respond via F keys anymore.

Do you have simple Comms enabled?

Thank you, Swift, but no.
But hold on.. I may have fooled myself again. I have two verions of the mission; One where I replaced JTAC with a new one.
Must check the other version...

Did you have VoiceSttack with Vaicom as plug-in installed before…..or just VoiceAttack standalone?

If simple Comms isn't enabled, then using the simple radio button won't work. You need to use the actual aircraft PTT.
