LGB Laser CODE bugged when Rearming

[jayst0r]

Hello,

You cant change Laser Codes in current opne Beta CLient anymore after a rearm.

The whole LASER CODE UI is stuck and cant be clicked anymore. Kneeboard shows LASER CODE 0000 once u opened the LASER code menu from F8->F8-F (ALL), AFTER a rearm.The Bombs will however default back to CODE 1688.

BEFORE Rearm LASER code UI can be clicked

I tested:

Hot start change LASER CODE rearm- >broken

Cold start Change lasercode rearm -> broken

COLD start Change Laser Code DONT rearm might work kneeboard shows correct Code. Opening and canceling rearm window still works,  Kneeboard shows correct code. Then when rearming with Laser Code Window open the Lasercode ui gets broken the moment the ground crew says rearming complete and all dial move to top right Corner and kneeboard shows laser code 0000 but is 1688 as bombs follow that Laser code.

Agreed with statements above - only default code 1688 works for now. I have tested it out with default and custom made ME codes.
Tracks are below - from cold start, rearmament, take-off. Default code works in both cases. Custom 1671 code doesn't work after rearmament - switched to 0000.

same here

Same issue in VR.  No Longer able to change the Laser code when on the ground through the F8 UI.  Tried with both vr controllers (Always worked in the past) And with Mouse.

I have the same issue in 2D, did not try in VR yet. But no reason to believe there will be any difference. 

Tried it on 2 different MP servers yesterday. Grayflag Syria and something else i forgot. But Caucasus map. 

[WolfTangoFox]

Same here, unable to change the code, kneeboard shows 0000.

[SignorMagnifico]

Confirmed for me as well. Unable to change the code after rearming using the panel.

[felixx75]

Can confirm, I have the same problem.

[BigBorner]

is there some sort of Hotfix planned or possible for this, or will this also follow the new release schedule? @NineLine @BIGNEWY

Hi, 

I have no patch date information to share currently. 

I have asked someone from RAZBAM to check here and take a look.

thank you 

[BigBorner]

Thank you for the Info! 

 

Ill take from that, yes, Hotfixes out of the usual Patch-Schedule are possible to happen in general.

I hope it gets fixed soon, having working LGB's would be nice

Isn't code "1511" working? The LGB are fixed @1511 atm.

nop, i test every possiblity : it's all the time 1688, even if you set an other code in editor.

It's possible de change laser code only if you spawn with weapon and don't rearm

1688, not 1511.  Paveways can't go that low.

ya laser code is break : it's actually block on 1511 when you rearm, but your bomb are in reality on 1688. that is the bug.

but ya without this bug, i many time used 1511 for GBU12 and 24.

[Sherman68]

Currently, Kneeboard show all zero's, the bombs coded to 1511 and the pod set to 1511. I also confirm I can't change the bomb code.

[Bigity]

Yup sorry, I misspoke.  I misread and thought you had said 1111 (which is the lowest the laser can use).  GBUs can't use that low, 1511 is correct for that.

If this has been a known bug since before the last patch is there any reason it has not been fixed, or at least marked confirmed? This is a frustrating bug for MP servers and makes buddy lasing impossible with preset drone lasing like found in the 4YA servers. 

[RealDCSpilot]

@BIGNEWY So with the unified build and 6 weeks release cycle, what's the plan about hotfixes? Are we now really doomed to wait 6 weeks everytime for getting serious issues fixed?
