reported CCIP post-designate remaining bug

[SeaBass80]

Hi,

a longstanding bug in the F-16 has been nearly solved in 2.9.9.2280, I link to the original description here. This is with respect to the guidance provided when pressing weapon release in CCIP mode if the weapon impact point is below the HUD. In this case, the F-16 provides both steering guidance to the release point via the release cue and the azimuth steering line (ASL).

Solved bug: Contrary to before, the ASL steering line now indeed guides towards the designated CCIP target point as long as the weapon release button stays pressed. Thanks for finally solving this, ED!

Remaining bug: The target designation cue (circle with dot) should become ground-stabilized at the selected ground point upon depressing weapon release in CCIP mode. Currently, it becomes ground-stabilized at the calculated impact point at the moment of button press. This is incorrect for the delayed release, as that ground position does not correspond to the designated target point used by the FCC.

Evidence: redacted please use PM next time.

Track file: Provided track file shows this behavior. Target selected by holding WPN Release is the center of the two runways. After target designation, airplane is maneuvered to reveal CCIP designation has been ground-stabilized at a point well below the original flightpath. The approach and release can nonetheless be completed correctly.

Hello @SeaBass80

Thank you for this track and for the evidence.
