[FIXED] SD10 & PL5 exhaust effect is miss-aligned (with solution)

[Kurdes]

The exhaust effect of the SD10 & PL5 missile is miss-aligned.

In mils_sd10.lua the line under "boost":

nozzle_position                     = {{-1.74, -0.11, 0}},

has to be:

nozzle_position                     = {{-1.74, 0, 0}},

 

The same with mils_pl5.lua, but this line:

Y_back          = -0.071,

has to be:

Y_back          = 0.0,

This is occurring in DCS OpenBeta v2.9.1.483350.

I set up a generated single player mission to take some screenshots for my squad and noticed this issue. Please see the attached screenshot. This is absolutely still a thing and can be reproduced.

Might be worth checking on this one again? This is still occurring.

@uboats

This is still occuring for PL-5s in the new OB, version 2.9.2.49940. Please see attached screenshots. First screenshot is a PL-5 fired from the left wing, the second screenshot is a PL-5 fired from the right wing. So the exhaust effect appears to be offset towards the aircraft just a bit.

The SD-10 does appear to be fixed, however.

@Kurdes can confirm your fix for the SD-10 was pushed during this update:

 

However, the PL-5 change was not:

 

@uboats this is what we call an easy win, please include in next update.

It appears the Type-200A is also affected.
