Where did this happen? Please share the mission file or a track file.

Both aircraft need to be in the same flight within the mission editor for F/F DL to work. That's often not the case on many public MP servers.

As I understand it, the problem arises precisely in a multi-member crew, when 1 person is flying on the plane, everything worksRed cross v 2.0.2.1F-20240115-161407.trk

Do I understand correctly: If only one player is crewing the aircraft F/F DL is working fine, but if the aircraft is multicrewed then F/F DL isn't working in the exact same mission?

Thanks. Were all involved aircraft player controlled (be it singlecrewed or multicrewed) or were AI controlled aircraft involved as well?

No, I meant if you tried to establish the F/F DL with an AI Tomcat or if it was player controlled Tomcats only.

only with players

Has anyone noticed similar? Just tried to use the F/F datalink with another tomcat and it didn't work. Both tomcats had 2 humans so it's not anything to do with Jester. No matter what frequency or setup we tried it didn't work. Both jets were in the same ME group so that wasn't the issue.

 

EDIT:

Tested on the same mission with just one of us in each tomcat and it worked fine, might be a multicrew issue. We also tested a mission pre and post-GPS just in case that had something to do with it somehow but it worked every time.
