1. HARM Training Mission (F16) wrong HK code

[Nedum]

Hello,

 

there are currently many issues with some of the F16 Training Missions and some points how the missions are designed.

The first HARM Training Mission is poorly designed.

The Speaker of the Mission talks like "Mr. Slow Joe". At the half of his explanation, I've forgotten what's the matter of the mission and all the buttons I should press. And even so, I am not a native speaker of this language, he is so slooooooow with his talking, and he repeats things that are not necessary for the Mission several times. Spare this time for more important information.

I always have questions left after a Training Mission (why do I have to press the Buttons in that order, why the height of the flight, why that mode for the weapon, what about the HUD symbols, why do I have to fire that weapon at this range, and so on).

A Training should give you all you need to understand how and why you do stuff, it's not there to explain several times that the next step is important. Why this step is so important should be explained.

The speaker doesn't explain the HUD symbolic, he doesn't explain the limits of the HARM, he doesn't explain why we have to use the current HARM mode and so on. I am left with so many questions and the feeling even an ape could do this type of "Training".

To say "press this button and after that another one", isn't training at all. There is so much space left to get better with the current DCS Mission design (for nearly every Training Mission).

And I can't understand why in some missions too early Button presses get captured and let the training go on, and in other Missions a too early Button press will stop the mission from going on?

 

But now my point.

In the first HARM Mission (see picture), the code I should enter for the HK station is wrong. The Mission Speaker is telling me to enter code "204", but that is the wrong code. The right code should be "203". Even the Mission script highlighted the 2, 0 and 4 button. The HARM never "saw" the HK. I've done the mission with the right code, but the mission script stopped working after that. I destroyed the HK, but no response from the mission speaker anymore, like he did after hitting the target before.

 

I am on Open Beta, newest update.

Slow repair: done (several times)

FXO and Metashaders2 folders deleted
