FMBluecher Posted April 1, 2023 Posted April 1, 2023 Trying M12 today, I pulled off of the secondary target in order to get a bit of spacing from it before starting my run when I heard Steep just suddenly abort the attack without my selecting that via the F10 menu. I was then unable to order E-Boy to resume the attack, ask for SEAD, etc. I was a bit to the north of where E-Boy was orbiting, so maybe I wasn't 100% where I was supposed to be, but I figured attack heading didn't matter quite as much since this wasn't a CAS tasking. I was still quite close to the target (less than 9 NM from the Uragans I was targeting)! I can provide a Tacview replay if that would help.

Hi, had a look through the mission triggers, was wondering if I'd set another condition that triggers the abort...but nope nothing in there that would do that. Is there any possibility you may have accidentally selected the abort option, or do you use anything like voice attack that would select an F10 option for you? Only other possibility would be DCS randomly turning a trigger on on it's own, which I wouldn't rule out but I've never seen happen. Edited April 2, 2023 by ChillNG 1

I guess I must have fat-fingered the abort option, since I don't use voice attack or anything like that. I didn't think my fingers were close enough, but hey, I was pretty tired when I played it yesterday, so maybe I wasn't self-aware enough to consider that as an option! Thanks again!
