reported TGP Manual Gain Control is not working

[Maxxox]

Hi,

since last patch the MGC of the TGP doesn't work, again!

[Lord Vader]

This was reported internally previously.

Thanks anyway.

Hi again @Maxxox

After analysing the current version and comparing the available public documentation, we've decided the MGC function is working correctly in DCS World
It is only supposed to be used while in FLIR mode, becoming inoperable in the TV mode.

If you feel this requires a revision, please send documented, publicly available evidence to @BIGNEWY and we'll gladly look into it in the future.

This actually kinda makes sense once you factor in that the LITENING will eventually be replaced with LANTIRN (which has no TV mode).

[Maxxox]

The TV mode is not the problem. The Gain Control is relevant for Thermal Vision (IR). The Tpod works after last patch only in auto mode. In IR you should have to do this manual.

Why should there be an option to switch between auto and manual if it doesnt make a difference. that doesnt make any sense.
