fixed Masked TGP in NAV mode

[Falconeer]

Since today's implementation, the "masked TGP" is coming into the HUD when you turn away from where the TGP is looking and blocking the view of the pod, however it is also giving the message while in NAV mode with no "point" or "area" track

Observed the same. Didnt disappear even after putting pod in standby and or turning the hardpoint completely off

Hi @Falconeer

We are aware of this and are working on a fix. Thanks for bringing this up, however.

Did this get addressed with the latest (2.9.1.48335 Open Beta) hotfix?  Haven't been able to test.

No, this is still happening. I've found no way to turn it off.

Go to the TGP, put it on snowplow Mode, and it goes away.

I really like getting the Mask Warning flashing when it Dogfight Mode.  Seems legit.

Also love getting the mask warning and incorrect steering cues when the TGP is on standby.  Why was this feature released in such poor form?  It seems more like alpha than beta.

Based on available reference documents, the mask indication should be visible anytime the TGP is operating not OFF or in STBY mode. This is a big reason why there is the STBY button. From your reaction, it seems like you might have some other info on this. If you have evidence that we can use, feel free to DM it to me, otherwise this is correct based on what we have. Thanks.

Well, it still warns in standby and it focuses on the steerpoint when in AA mode causing mask warning and it would be in standby in dogfight mode too.

Seems fixed, thanks.

Still flashes Masked when in STBY mode for me.

[Extranajero]

If the hardpoint is powered on - but the pod is in STBY  - it's generating Masked messages for me as well.

This doesn't appear to be fixed. On startup the pod shows masked and turns itself on automatically any time I switch to a master mode. I have to go through each master mode and set the pod to STBY for each mode to get rid of it.
