Hi, 

 

Can anyone test the following; this is what I noticed. I fly both seats. 
 

To switch between SAL and RF with “type” button i first need to cycle between SAL and RF within george pilot menu. Before that i cannot use the “type” mpd button and it’s stuck on the SAL hellfire. 
 

After cycling one time i can press the “type” and cycle between SAL and RF. 

Cold start

loaded with SAL and RF hellfires.

Into CPG seat, press “type” and stuck on SAL. 

Back to pilot seat and open “george” and activate missle. Cycle towards RF and close “George” and set no weapons. 

back into CPG seat; now i can cycle between SAL and RF.

Are you saying that after you do all of this, you can select RF hellfires from the pilot seat?

That's a bug, it should not be possible to select RF hellfires from the pilot seat at all, until we have LINK or Radar working.

No, it is not possible, since you cannot select TADS as a sight in the Pilot seat. That is not a bug.

One of us is misunderstanding something.

I said that if the OP has found a way to select radar hellfires from the back, that's a bug.

He asked how to cycle between the missile types. To do so, you need to select TADS as the sight. Since only the CPG can do that, contextually only the CPG can toggle between the missile types. FCR forces the type to RF, HMD forces the type to SAL.

He could not get the missiles to toggle in the front seat because he did not set TADS as the sight. When he returns to the back seat, he tells George to toggle the missile types. George selects TADS as his sight during this process to achieve the result, so when the OP returns to the front seat, he finds that the missiles can now be toggled. The missing step was to select TADS as the sight, which George was doing for him.

He isn't selecting RF missiles in the backseat, he is commanding George to change to RF missiles in the front seat, which George does after George sets TADS as the sight.

, so when the OP returns to the front seat, he finds that the missiles can now be toggled.


Ah, this is the part I was missing. I thought he was saying that after doing that dance, RF hellfires were working from the back seat. My mistake.
