MeanJim Posted Tuesday at 06:26 AM Posted Tuesday at 06:26 AM When cold starting the F-16 the laser now starts in training mode. Is it supposed to do this, and if so, when did it change? The server I regularly play on only has cold start slots, and I've never had to switch it before. It's been a couple of weeks since I've played DCS MP, and last night when I dropped my first two GBU's they missed. On the second drop, I noticed a flashing a T instead an L, looked on the laser DED page and saw it was showing TRNG for A-G. To make sure I wasn't missing a step during startup, I tried the auto start and when it's finished, it's still in training mode.

Believe that is realistic, you need to change it to "Combat" mode to use it, part of your Laser weapons set up.

Solution Tholozor Posted Tuesday at 03:13 PM Solution Posted Tuesday at 03:13 PM (edited) This is correct. The laser is initialized in TRNG mode when the pod is powered up, and must be manually switched to the CMBT laser.

You must always change it after the BIT is finished. That is how the ATP works.
