fixed Confounding inability to launch ATGMs as Copilot-Gunner in Multiplayer

[ACS_Dev]

I have concluded that this likely isn't a bug given my friend's inability to reproduce it, however I am out of ideas on ways to fix it so am posting here.

I once again cannot seem to launch ATGMs as the front seat operator of the Mi-24 in multiplayer.

I HAVE NO MODS, THE LATEST OPEN-BETA PATCH AND I PLAY ON MT.

In Single-player I can launch them just fine. In Multiplayer, I press the launch button and  the tone goes silent, nothing comes off the rail. My pilot loses tone as well until I select the next missile. It seems as if the game thinks I fired the missile, yet I actually didn't.

I did a number of things in an attempt to fix it, none of which produced results:

-Rebound "Fire ATG missile" keybind to keyboard in addition to mouse and joystick
-Slow-Repaired DCS, searching for extra files
-Cleared keybinds for MI-24CPG.
-Deleted the entire Mi-24 module folder and reinstalled it
-Deleted the entire contents of my saved games/dcs openbeta folder
-Tested on a friends server on a different mission instead of my mission on my server
-Requesting, obtaining and ceding control of the aircraft
-Using Single-Thread instead of Multi-Thread

To launch, I do the following:
-Hop into the helicopter as CPG
-My pilot selects missiles and does his end of the setup
-I select B2 and wait for the green light indicator to illuminate
-I go into the scope and manipulate the sight until it is on the target
-My pilot aligns the aircraft and I get tone
-I press the "fire ATG missile" button

And the tone goes out for both my pilot and I. At this point, when my pilot is in the front seat, the missile launches. Both of us are experienced in our respective roles and the exact same process works without error for me in single-player.

I did not have this issue prior to the most recent update.

My peripherals are:
-VKB Gladiator
-TWCS throttle
-G502 mouse
-K63 keyboard

Several tracks included.

In the TEST MI24 track the playback begins at about 1:30. I attempt to fire several missiles. Each time when I press the fire button the tone goes out and nothing further happens.

In 20240128130620 I attempt several more times.

In 20240128131659 I attempt again and then swap out for my friend, who then takes the front seat. He then proceeds to launch several missiles without issue.

I have no further ideas, please help.

Open beta or stable? There was a bug that was fixed, but not sure stable is updated to the build with the patch

OB, latest version.

For posterity's sake I am going to leave this thread up.

I was not, in fact, up do date. Somehow I missed the update and was playing this whole time on another version from everyone else.

I incorrectly assumed that I was up to date and failed to actually check...

I apologize for wasting anyone's time, lesson learned. In the future I will include a screenshot of DCS updater to verify.
