investigating Taxi light does not work

[mutz]

There is no Taxi/Ldg lights on the Remasterd F-5E. Nor with the mouse in the Cockpit nor with a Key attributed. 

Cheers

PS: The Taxi/ Ldg light in the F5 was always very weak.

Odd, since I just did a flight in the remastered F-5 and I turned it on just fine. They were also visible in external view. This was the basic cold start IA NTTR mission so I couldn't check the brightness that well since that mission is in broad dayligjht.

 

*edit*

They indeed don't work on a hot-start aircraft. They do on a cold-start one however, which is why I didn't notice earlier.

It seems it might be an issue with missions created before the update, if you place a hot start F-5E, the lights work fine as they are tied to the dial on the right hand panel for exterior nav lights. This needs to be turned up for the lights to work. I don't remember them being tied to that dial and if off not working, but least for now there is a work around while I check on how it should work. 

 

ok, update, according to the manual it is working as intended, the issue is older missions you will need to make sure the above knob is out of the off position.

From what I've seen, the lights are not retracting when turning off NAV Knob and the lights switch on ground.
