JTAC COMM Script and LGB Issue

[Habu_69]

DCS 2.9.6.58056, Win 11, SP, Hornet air start, JTAC Predator. This mission was developed to train LGB deliveries using a JTAC and no TGP.  JTAC and Hornet were added to mission following DCS update and a repair. Launcher is disabled and EASY COMMS off. Fusing and laser code were set in the ME payload window. Because the mission has the aircraft starting in the air, the aircraft rearm window is unaccessable.

1. The JTAC comm menu never displays the LASER ON  and SPOT options.

2. The GBU-12 bombs detonate, but do not guide, perhaps due to no. 1; however, my experience was that the bombs also did not guide before the update, when the JTAC COMMS were correct.

Issue 1 is reported and devs are working on a fix.

I'll check issue number 2.

2/ I get the same result. The bomb is not guided at all in your track, and I have no idea why. I'm surprised it is the only report about this issue so far. Maybe we're missing something.

I've not used GBUs for years. Can someone else check the OP track, please?

Update post-2.9.7.58923: Issue 1 remains, even after DCS Repair. AFAC will not provide comm menu lasing options. Issue 2. GBU's now guide and strike moving targets when attack Hornet lases by FLIR.

@Habu_69 I've just re-run your track in Release: issue 1 seems to have been solved. All OK for you?

@Habu_69 You there?
