Red Flag Campaign - Misplaced Waypoints


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

As simple as that. Waypoint 8 is way WAY out of proper position. Pretty quick fix. Please thanks.

Compare screenshot to pg13 in the briefing document.

EDIT: I thought it was just in mission 3, then got to mission 4. It seems to be in all missions involving landings for refueling at Lincoln County. In fact, mission 4 and up go to waypoint 8 (Mormon Peak) then back up to waypoint 9 (Lincoln Co. Airfield) and then don't bother going back to Nellis AFB at all.
Has no one else ever played this campaign such that they didn't notice this stuff? Am I the only one who plays these? I'm correcting them as I go, but it sure would be neat if I didn't have to.

Since there's an update coming out, please add this to it. Properly labeling waypoints and adjusting timings, altitudes, and speeds as well would be appreciated, as I find I'm needing to do that as well. Also, putting a box in where the No Fly Container is would be super helpful and super easy to do. I did these things for missions 3 and 4, but decided to just fix the waypoints for the rest. And it is all the rest. They end at Lincoln. Co. airfield rather than refuel there and continue to Nellis like the briefings say.

Okay, I see what happened and I've corrected it myself. What is waypoint 8 in the mission SHOULD BE waypoint 9, it's Mormon Peak. Waypoints 8 and 9 are reversed. So I deleted waypoint 8 then added a new waypoint over Mormon Peak after the L1 refueling landing. Also, Iabled waypoints with LS, M5, and L1. And I added a labeled box for the No Fly Container over Groom Lake/Area 51. It'd be nice to have that in all the missions.

EDIT: I also noticed that the push point, waypoint 2, was set to orbit until 16:12 rather than 16:14, so I corrected that as well. I noticed this cuz the target waypoint, M5, was flagged red due to ground speed of 33 kts and ToT fixed at 16:28. All the other waypoints had locked ground speed so I unlocked all those as well, then added locked ground speed of mach 0.6 to waypoint 4, the target IP, and mach 0.8 at the target waypoint, leaving all the others alone.
