[KNOWN ISSUE] Waypoint increment switches to target points

[DimSim]

I encountered a rare bug on the weekend. This has only happened once ever.

Steps:

1) Long press Waypoint Increment button

2) Select Waypoint (From left side panel)

3) Type (waypoint number) 3 into UFC, press Enter (Same for any waypoint 1-9)

Actual result:

4) HUD and Map show Waypoint W3 (As desired and expected)

5) Press Waypoint Inc button (short). Switched to Target Points, set target point T0. (Pressing Waypoint Inc again sets T1, then cycles back to T0)

 

Expected result:

4) HUD and Map show Waypoint W3 (As desired and expected)

5) Press Waypoint Inc button (short). Expect to advance to Waypoint W4, or next waypoint.

During the mission I did press TOO, 1 Ent to add one target point manually.  While RTB, I had fenced out completely, no target designation, long press waypoint inc showed waypoints highlighted. But every time I pressed Waypoint Inc, it switched to Target points.

 

Edit: This behavior continued until the end of that flight. The only way to set a specific waypoint was via the UFC.
