investigating More Cockpit Language Options

[Badger1-1]

see title

in menu its set to native

[Derbysieger]

This shouldn't be marked as correct as is imho. It should be dependant on the special options tab for the module or dependent on setting the avionics language to native, not dependant on whether my units is set to metric or imperial. Switching the setting every time dependant on the module you want to fly is not a good solution

[Raven (Elysian Angel)]

Indeed. It may be “working as intended”, but it definitely isn’t “correct as is”.

So, can it be set it to metric?

[Derbysieger]

Yes, change the units in the gameplay settings to metric.

 

Imho this needs to be changed asap. Binding it to the native avionics option or putting it in the special options tab as a separate option are acceptable solutions to me. The units set in general gameplay options shouldn't effect cockpit instruments of individual modules.

Doesn't work the other way - English cockpit but metric units in gameplay settings leaves the cockpit in Feet/Knots

This used to only affect the mission editor and F10 map. 
This change is a huge step in the wrong direction, since as MickV said, it doesn’t work the other way around which feels really weird.

Yeah I feel the same, I have it now set to metric, the US jets are still in feet as far as I know but not sure about the other FC3s. Should be connected to native settings in the gameplay tab.

 

Also my english Cockpit now shows NM instead of KM but the rest is Meters and KMH....come on ED

Yes it’s messed up. I made a separate thread about the opposite problem to this one here: https://forum.dcs.world/topic/378967-english-cockpit-with-metric-units/

Want to point out as well that the altitud warner and the fuel range are yet displayed in feet and NM respectively no matter if you chose imperial or metric. 

Thing to fix.

You can change this in general measurements option. Switch everything to Russian.

Then I guess is a problem with metric system and english cockpit.

Not sure since I use full Russian+metric. Never tried different. You need go convert all measurement settings to native/russian and metric. Then it will work. And full English+ imperial if you want opposite. Mixing tends to create something wierd.
