SU25T Gunpod Programmed Mode Not Working?

First, I think there is an error in the manual. Page 284 fo flight manual says:

 

"Select gun pods by pressing the [RCtrl-Space] key and confirm weapon selection on the HUD and WCS panel; two gun pods will be selected. Set the ripple interval/gun pods mode to FIX mode and the ripple quantity switch to PO2.

If the aircraft has four gun pods loaded onboard, press [LCtrl-Space] once more. Set the ripple interval/gun pods mode to FIX mode and the ripple quantity switch to PO2."

 

Is the above a typo? I dont' think RCtrl-Space is correct. Shouldnt' it be LCtrl-Space?

 

Anyway, in FC 1.12, I used to be able to press fire and the gun would automatically lock the vertical axis when I used programmed mode. However, in FC2, it doesn't seem to work and even when laser is on, it seems to work as fixed depression mode.

 

Any ideas?

Can't answer your question yet, but I will look into it later.

 

I have found something myself; in the 25T when in A2A mode -the cannon will not fire. I switch back to A2G mode and it fires. Back again into A2A and it will not. I tried this after shooting off 2 R-60 in a weapons test mission; the R-60 worked fine.
