Mission 11 - kneeboard errors, and possible bug(?) (SPOILER ALERT)

[vvizard]

First the minor one. Kneeboard for mission 11 shows LZ pages for the wrong missions. IIRC those where the LZ for mission 10.

Another possible issue. When clearing the LZ of hostiles, the two trucks escape. One to the north, one to the west. First play through, I chased the northbound truck. Forced it to stop, and was asked to land next to it. I did, but nothing happened. I saved a *.trk file I have attached. I have not verified if the *.trk file plays correct though, as in my experience, sometime track files from DCS get really messed up. But take my word for it. When landing next to the truck, nothing triggers. I took of and landed again at different sides of the truck. Reduced RPM as well, to get the bird heavy on the skids, as I thought that could maybe amount to 1 ft or so of AGL height, if that was used as a trigger. But nothing.

Next play through, I chased the west-bound truck, and the triggers was OK when landing next to the truck. Mission accomplished.

 

Here's an external link to the *.trk file. Forum didn't allow me to attach, because of file size.

I adjusted the kneeboard. 

Regarding the trucks, I cannot replicate. I tried with both trucks and and each time the trigger fires. Can you please provide me the track again? The download link above is no longer active. 

@vvizard May ask what resolution you are playing on? The format of the messages in the top right always looks like this for you?

Another attempt at uploading the track-file.

For resolution, I play in VR on a quest3. Not exactly sure of the resolution it renders at. Think maybe I have text-scaling turned on somewhere in DCS, as by default, messages are rendered very small in VR.

Same thing here. I am going after the northbound truck and stopping it. Then getting the task to land next to it, but nothing triggers.

I have tried making go-arounds and different landing spots but nothing. I'm also playing in VR with Varjo Aero.

Yes, sadly there is a bug with the trigger zone of the northbound convoy. I already fixed on my end and submitted a patch to ED. But sadly we need to wait till they release it. Current workaround is taking the southern truck.

Thanks for the rainbow, it was my first time in DCS.

Yes looks really nice in this weather settings. Cool that you recognized it.
