I'm getting back to the Viggen after several years and been testing the KB pod. I loaded two, set 3 on the left dial and 4 on the right which is the combination for initiating the fourth program. It's not working. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

 

Also, the manual states that the automatic release program is currently not working in dcs. I haven't tested it yet but I think it used to some seven years ago. Is this the case?

It's "0" and "4" to start program 4. And yeah, unfortunately the automatic mode is not working.

Yes, having searched the forum, I found a thread mentioning that it's 0 and 4 in the real thing. So I have tried that too in case they changed it and haven't updated the manual. No luck.

Not sure, but you're likely doing something wrong then. It worked perfectly fine for me just now. Do you maybe have a track or a .miz you could upload?

This is what the manual says.

That's very odd. They seem to have changed the manual yet the version remains the same. I was using version RC2.1 from August 31st 2023 whereas the current is, again, version RC2.1 from November 12th 2024. And the instructions re how to set program 4 are indeed different.
I'll try it again. Thank you.

That's why they always say: Make sure you use the current manual. Or simply RTFM. Read the flight manual 😛

And yes, there was a major rework on the KB code a few months ago, which required some changes to the manual as well. Always grab the latest and hottest manual here:

Why there? Because HB and ED are simply not fast enough in uploading a new manual to the builds. This has to do with the general update strategy the companies are using, and I usually tend to update at least every 3-4 weeks, or when important changes in the manual are pending.

Thanks man. At least I got to update my manual out of this. I did try it yesterday and program 4 works like a charm. I don't know what I did the first time when I thought I had tried the 0-4 combination.
I also noticed that the page re automatic dispense has been greyed out now which I understand means that they're not planning implementing it. Do you know what's going on with that? Engine limitation perhaps?

I see that the Viggen is in a better state than it used to be years ago. I'm glad it hasn't been abandoned.

This will not happen, unless an asteorid hits the planet. There are enough crazy guys out there who will not abandon working on this great module 😛
