Communication problem in mission 9 - part 1

[LordOrion]

Hi, seen this yesterday evening playing Mission 9 part 1 (simplified AAR) with latest game client version (v2.9.15.9599). Its another "cosmetical" problem since in the end does not block you from completing the mission but it might be confusing:

• After launch, when I reached the 7NM distance from Abe I was prompted to switch PRI 2 to contact Strike, but when I did so the dialogue didn't trigger (I did't hear the "squelch" sound when I switch the channel), and the prompt message remained on the screen (see 1st picure below). I tried several times to switch back and forth the channel to force the tirgger to fire but nothing.
• Same occured when I reached Fujairah control area: switched to AUX 2 when prompted but no communication with the tower occured, and again no "squelch"sound was played (see 2nd picture blow).

Again, I have no tracks (I think I had disabled the feature for a performance issue long time agoo editing some config file but I can't remeber how to undo that), I hope the pics I got can help.

The switch channel system worked fine so far, at least with previous versions: yesteday weas actually the first time I played DCS with version v2.9.15.9599, so I can't tell if the problem is related to the update or not.

Dunno if this might be related: I edited the DTC at the mission begin to change the CMDS MAN1 program from "1 Chaff + 1 Flare x10 times" to the more conservative "2 Chaff + 1 Flare x 2 times".

Finally: only mods I'm using are the A-4E and T-45 planes.

Hi @LordOrion

Just flew the mission. Unfortunately could not reproduce your issue. Both messages and triggers worked fine. So not sure what is happening your end? Of course I run with no mods.

What I did notice that if the first leg is flown at 300 knots, the wings 'joining port' audio steps on the 'clear of the ABE' audio. So just got the 'clear of the ABE' text on screen. Changed to Pri 2 and all worked as expected. So will put that on my list to sort out the timings.

As I said apart from that all worked my end?

Hi @Badger633 ,

the mission is really short so I will try it again, this time disabling my mods and leaving the DTC unchanged just to be sure (I'll let you know).

Did't noticed the "joinig port" thing (I flown the 1st legs at around 300 knots, using the ATC to not go overspeed), I'll kep an eye open for that this time.
