How to activate shkval with yellow sight thingy?

[e32lover]

Hi,

In the BS2 I used to just jump in, take off, activate that yellow optical eye piece, look at roughly where the target is then hit lock and my shkval would be on and locked near the target. With a recent update on the new BS3 when I press the button for the yellow eye piece, instead night vision turns on and I can't for the life of me turn on the Shkval. 

 

If anyone could give me the instructions to locate targets with head tracking and turn on the Skhaval like how it was in BS2 before the update that would be great! I can't even turn the Shkval on anymore!

Перед запуском попросите земной персонал заменить прибор ночного видения на прицел. С 20:00 до 08:00 прибор ночного видения устанавливается автоматически (ночью).

You can ask the ground crew to replace the NVG to the HMS,it's default to NVG when the mission start at night (20:00 to 8:00 as Vital said)

Although the mission designer can force it to start with NVG or HMS regardless of the time of the mission

Just change it via  the "\" ground crew menu before start up the engine.

Shkval uncage moves Skhval to the HMS reticle. Lock just locks where it's pointing.
