Issue with "Copy to all of same type of weapon" button in loadout screen


Recommended Posts

I was having problems with GBU-24 loadouts on my F/A-18, and tracked the issue down to a misunderstanding of what the "Copy to all of same type of weapon" button does on the Fuse Settings panel in the Loadout screen.

Note: You only get this button when changing fuse settings for a laser-guided bomb.

My assumption was that the button applied ALL of the weapon settings on that panel to all of the other weapons of that type. 

Turns out it does not - it only applied the laser code, not - for example - the fuse choice.

As a result I ended up with multiple fuse types, which the F/A-18 stores system doesn't like (displays ADV-LOAD on the MFD, and bombs won't drop).

I can suggest two possible changes that could improve this:

  1. Change the button text to be a bit more explicit; E.g. "Same code for all this weapon type".
  2. Change the button function to apply all settings (which would then make it a useful button to have on all the fusing panels)
