Wingman comms

Sorry if this ia a rookie error but would I be right in saying you can't use the normal radio comms for wingman e.g. engage ground targets? He ignores me except for when I'm prompted to hit space to let him fire via the mission text.  Also there's a wingman 1 and 2 shows up in the DCS radio comms but only 1 seems to be with me. Cheers!  Loved the first mission.

Yeah AFAIK in this campaign the wingman is never part of the same group as the player, because mission designers have practically no control over AI wingmen - and other groups don't belong to your own flight, and so all the radio commands are ignored by them. I think you don't need to use the standard in-game radios comms throughout the campaign.

Just remember to always set the briefed frequencies; if I'm not mistaken, all radio transmissions do use the proper freqs, and not tuning some of them might make you miss out on a lot of information. 😄

I've had the Apache since release but I relearn it once every 2 months or so 😉

Speaking of comms. Mission 2 if you start from the checkpoint, you haven't had a chance to tune the channels in and the tablet covers it over. So by the time you have entered the tablets waypoints it might be you've missed something.  Maybe put the tablet somewhere it doesn't cover the kneeboard?

Yes, I thought about it, but you can drag the tablet to any part of the screen with the mouse

Yes, you need to click on the transparent line on the left. Or buttons in the upper left corner, something like that. I do not remember exactly. But, the tablet is movable 100%

Thanks. Still no luck but as you say I must have to find where to click for it to move.

Ah the kneeboard can move. Not the tablet which pops up.  Also the tablet is available in the kneeboard.
