not a bug Default kneeboard with laser code is gone - Get rid of old kneeboards

[karpiyon]

Hi,
I noticed that the default kneeboards with the laser code is no longer shown, at least for me.

In addition I can't get rid of sticky annoying kneeboard which re not in my:

Saved Games\DCS\Kneeboard\F-16C_50\

Nor in the mission itself, theater or ....\DCS World\Mods\aircraft\F-16C\Cockpit\Scripts\KNEEBOARD\

How can I get the one with teh laser code back and get rid off the stick ones?
Is there a log which would tell me where they come from?

e.g. these:

null

You won't need the laser codes Kneeboard anymore. The laser of the LGBs is now set through the yellow edge of the bombs in the Rearm/Refuel loadout menu.
click the yellow edge to get into the fuzing and lasercode context menu
You can change the codes like this now even with the jet running.

it's not the code as much as the unnecessary kneeboards?
It looks like remains from an old mission and i can't get rid of them.

I get these regardless of the mission or theater.

I want to remove them

If you want to delete modified files that may have been added previously, you might want to delete the modifications in the saved games folder. It seems you have already looked into Saved Games\DCS\Kneeboard\F-16C_50\ so if you have modified files elsewhere, you might want to perform a Repair/Clean to your installation folder.

The removal of Laser code page was intentional as it was mentioned above and there isn't a need to bring it back if you can set the laser on the ground in the rearm/refuel window.

The current kneeboards by default present the pre-briefed route with the scenery map as background (which is what you are seeing there) as well as navigation plates in certain sceneries.

what i see looks like part of Sinai mission and it keeps showing all the time regardless of mission

@Lord Vader it would be nice however, if there was some sort of kneeboard where you could see the laser code of your bombs. Like the kiowa has for its loadout etc.

reason is simple: if i have an air start mission, say in a Campaign, i‘d really like to know my bombs laser code, which currently we just cannot see. We do have to hope it didnt change from default 1688, else the bombs just miss.

That's something you can suggest in our Wishlist section, @_SteelFalcon_. 

Considering an Air Start is a "game" feature, the only suggestions I can think of is the mission maker adding those codes in the description or briefing windows, or even customise the kneeboard for that specific mission (stored inside the miz file).

You can look at the laser codes in SP missions/campaigns via the mission planner.
