Hellfire laser code question

[YoYo]

Hi, any idea where is a place to change Hellfire codes? In Kneeboard I see possibility to change of codes for APKWS (LAlt+LShift+2/3/4) but I didnt notice this option for Hellfires, also in ME. Thx.

Oh, ok, I'll check, with the Hellfire settings on this page, it might actually be there. I'll back soon ;).

Yep, it was this (Pri/Alt codes):

Thx!

Also, in the "WEAPONS BIT/SET-UP PAGE" you can set how many go on each code (pri/alt)ftg8AMH.jpg image widget

Yes, Casmo's Hellfire Tutorial covers this

Yes, but you cannot set it to any number higher than 3. If you have four missiles, at least one must be set to the alternate frequency. With three missiles, however (e.g. after firing one), you can set it again to 3 and 0. Alternatively, is if you are on the alternate code, you can just hit the 'toggle codes' button and switch to the primary code.

Does anyone know the options if it is possible to set two missiles to the same code at once? By default, they have different laser codes, yes, it changes automatically, but I also had several situations where the code was an alternative one without switching from my side (MAN/NORM). Then you had to switch manually.

@YoYo Isn't that the "Missiles Per Code" on the "Weapons BIT/Set-up Page"?

I remember something like that somewhere. Thanks for the lead, I'll check it out.

I seem to remember Casmo talking about this in his Hellfire video. Check it out.

If it's 4 HFs, you can have max 3 on one code (usually 1688) and the remaining 1 has to be on the other code. Not sure why. If it's 2 HFs, you can have both on the same code.
