Deimos Posted January 28, 2023 Posted January 28, 2023 Hi, would be great if there is an option to launch countermesaures by my own only. (or is it ? - am i blind ?) Petrovic may tell me what he sees, but he should stop messing around with flaires allways when he sees a white trail from my wingman or another friendly unit. 1 AMD Ryzen 7 / 3800X 8-Core / Nvidia 4080Super / RAM: 64 GB 3440 x 1440 / trackIR 5 / hp reverb G2 VPC Mongoos T-50CM3 Throttle / vkb-Gladiator NXT premium Stick

It's there, but the keybind in the menu doesn't match what the button says in the cockpit if I remember correctly which makes it really hard to find in the control bindings. The physical button in the pilot cockpit is on the left wall sort of between the fire suppression system and the fuel system controls. I believe if you hover mouse on it the in game description is "Pilot launch SNARS" or something like that. In the control binding menu I believe it's just "launch countermeasures" that you're looking for. *edit to say I might be misunderstanding you now that I've reread your question. I assumed you didn't know how to launch the flares yourself. But if you're asking if there is a way to disable Petrovich launching flares when he feels threatened, I don't think that option exists yet. And yes I agree it would be nice if Petrie had some common sense IFF and didn't call out "missile launch!" every time a wingman fires an ATGM. As an idea for the devs, maybe Petrovich auto flare launch should be tied to his ROE setting? IE if he's free fire he's also 'free fire' on the flares but otherwise he just informs you of the launch?

I think the best solution would be, just an option to tell him not to use countermeasures at all. Of course he should still call out threats.
