Communication (Radio) problem

[YoYo]

Did you noticed that to recive something for example from the tower (ATC) during the flight both radio selectors should be on the same position, copilot and pilot? Its a strange …

Example:

a) pilot selector is transmit on 3th radio list, copilot on the 1st - user uses „/„ from pilot position - result - no communication (no transmition) with ATC

b) pilot selector is transmit on 3th radio list, copilot on the 3th too - user uses „/„ from pilot position - result - communication is present (transmission works ok).

So, they can't broadcast independently? The same radios have to be selected for the transmission?

Ok, looks like a bug - radio Com sees THE LAST touch of knob of selector for transimssion only and is completely unrelated to the position held.

So if the pilot touch it - it sees this, but if the copilot touch it after the pilot, KW remembers  the position of the last touched knob! So the two selectors don't actually work independently. This is rather a bug, EA period I suppose. Track included (Nevada map).

So in general (SP), it doesn't matter what position you are in (pilot or copilot), but which radio selection knob was turned last to transmit (pilot or copilot)!

Even if you have correct active (marked by arrow on RFD) your radio - you cant transimt someting (connect to ATC for example) if you move as the last the other knob (copilot) for different position. 

Soultion for now: dont touch the other knob.

I knew something was borked with the radios, just couldn't put my finger on exactly what. I do use "easy" comms as well. This might very well be my issue.

As i saw here (the other topic), easy comm doesnt work with KW.

Generally, I have the impression that this is a bigger problem. Now I flew for 2 hours and it was basically a "typical" flight, with take off from C&D, attacking targets and changing places, back to base (SP). Despite the correct settings and channel selection (I only used the pilot's radio for ATC) at the beginning of the mission - I was able to contact ATC. After some time, however, the transmission (from my side to ATC) stopped working, even though I did not touch anything related to the radio or frequencies. They stopped responding even though they were on the right Radio. 

And now an interesting fact. By moving the selector knob from position 3 to 2 and back to position 3, ATC heard me and responded! There is some conflict here.

There is something wrong with the radio's operation I suppose. I'm afraid that when I get to JATAC, even though everything is set correctly, we simply won't hear them at the most important moment because we won't have the option of transmitting via radio. Things like this shouldn't happen. There is something wrong with the code that affects the transmission from the pilot position. Maybe using any button on the Copilot side (any) causes the Pilot's radio to stop working in terms of transmission from our side (maybe if we touch something in the copilot position, example - laser Arm, the KW code no longer sees what is turned on in the Pilot's radio and vice versa - so when I moved the knob from 3 to 2 and returned to 3, from pilot position, the transmission worked again?). Perhaps this requires recoding? I dont know.

It does. I can communicate with ai wingman on channel 3 with copilot set to 1 with easy comm.

I didnt know, I dont use easy comm, just full radio procedures.

I tried but could not find the binding for radio. 
I am on a tight schedule so I am slowly digging deeper. Communication is what I am focusing on next. Then buddy lazing. 
I am making a couple of highly dense missions and try out most features

Yesterday I tested this function again and it's as I wrote at the beginning (second post) - if you use the Radio as a Pilot (it will be ok) then use the radio of CoPilot (while still sitting on the pilot position, for example changed channel only for CoPilot from 01 to 02), the radio will no longer work for the ... Pilot, there is no transmission from the Pilot position. KW remembers only the last touched Radio button. You need to move the radio any button from the Pilot again and then everything will be OK again.

So, a request and a suggestion - I would like the radio to be linked in terms of transmission from our side to the place where the player is sitting + position of radio from this side (so Pilot right radios on RFD, CoPilot left radios on RFD, now its mixed), so that there is no situation where we move the CoPilot's radio (e.g. to listening) and the transmission from the pilot's seat stops working, so we cant talk for example.

Track with this issue: https://www.sendspace.com/file/ao7e2i (for 1 month).

1. Change selector position. Pilot seat. to 3 Radio (ATC).

2. Im still on the pilot seat, but I touched something from CoPilot radio.

3. Even though I'm still sitting in the pilot's seat and I still have Radio selector on radio 3, the transmission (on my part) stops working for the Pilot.

4. I have to touched again something on the Pilots radio to be able to transmit again.

Pls fix it, thanks!

Generally, the problem with Radio KW and contact with ATC or anything using the frequency still persists, you need to move something again from the pilot position to make it work properly and start transmitting.

Additionally, the last 2.9.6 introduced a bug in the form of permanent easy com = ON , with which KW does not fully work, so now it has become a complete mess:

You have to wait for a patch from ED, but moving anything on the pilot's radio to start the transmission should be fixed by the PC.
