reported earlier Aspect jumping/skipping degrees

[777coletrain]

The aspect indicator on the top left of the radar seems to skip degrees. Usually changing by 20 or more degrees when it updates. I would expect it to update with each scan and indicate everything from 18-0 unless aspect is changing very fast.

Oh, 18 means 180degrees, right? Straight towards you.

Hi @777coletrainand repliers

This Aspect Angle bug is a known issue, we're trying to resolve this in the near future.

Thanks for bringing this up.

It appears that the Tracked Target Symbol, Target Aspect Angle, and the HUD Reticle Aspect Indicator are all tied together. When the Tracked Target Symbol changes every 22.5 degrees (as it should) the Aspect Angle and HUD Aspect Indicator also changes.  Only the Tracked Target Symbol should change every 22.5 degrees whereas the Target Aspect Angle should display in tens of degrees. and since the HUD Reticle Aspect Indicator should be tied to the Target Aspect Angle that too should change every ten degrees. This makes it difficult to do base line intercepts as flying 120 AA is ideal for intercepting but on the FCR the AA never reads 12 it only shows 11 and 14 and in some situations it shows 13. All-in-all I think there was some confusion, or it is still a WIP moment.  See attached track files and mission files.

 

22.5 = 22.5 FCR AA reads 2

22.5+22.5 = 45 FCR AA reads 4 or 5

22.5x3 = 67.5 FCR AA reads 7

22.5x4 = 90 FCR AA reads 9

22.5x5 = 112.5 FCR AA reads 11

22.5x6 = 135 FCR AA reads 13 or 14

22.5x7 = 157.5 FCR AA reads 16

22.5x8 = 180 FCR AA reads 18

Only the target symbol should change in those degrees not the AA number. The AA number should change in tens: 11, 12, 13, etc.
