No update today, my devs have gone away
The patches stand forlorn, a symbol of the dawn
No update today, it seems a common sight
But people TKing by don't know the reason why
 
How could they know just what this huge letdown means?
The end of all my hopes, the end of all my dreams
How could they know a DLC there had been
Behind the door, where milsim reigned as queen

Huh?

The 60s are not strong with this one... :) (also, thanks for getting this stuck in my head. That thing's a bloody earworm!)

The new FCS calculates the range, auto elevates guns and machine guns, calculates lead magnificently....only when standing... whole new story begins when the vehicle starts to move and LASEs targets... the FCS goes crazy and treats its own vehicle movement as a movement of the target in crosshairs and applies lead ! :P

 

Taking the shooters movement should be taken into account, because the sideways velocity is passed on from the shooter to the projectile. It looks like the movement is not factored in now.

But I swear it was before when the new system was just introduced. Was it nerfed or broken?

I agree, FCS should take relative speed into account. In fact, given how the real thing measures it, it would be more difficult to figure out ground speed from an FCS reading than relative speed.

Anyone have any issues with their joystick lately>?   My analog features are broken.  Meaning when i up the throttle for example, it's either 100 or 0 and see same affect in controller setup (X-Y axis as well).  I already have it configured for analog correctly and this was working in the past.  I stopped playing within the last couple months, so nothing really changed other then updates most likely.

 

Any ideas what it could be?  I have a Logitech Extreme 3D

 

Error on my end, sorry

I found a serious bug with "manual guidance" on Scalpel. When flying with AI gunner, it doesn't work, despite the gunner's camera being pointed at target. I tested it with the same scenario with a Kajman hovering near the Stratis airbase, and an emptry HEMTT about 900m from it. First as a gunner, I had no problem hitting the HEMTT by pointing my sight at it and firing. As a pilot however, when I ordered the gunner to target the HEMTT (thus pointing his camera at it, verified with the gunner camera MFD) and fired the missile, it went straight forward, without guiding.

 

I also verified this with Blackfoot. Scalpel manual guidance only works for a human gunner.

I've noticed something that can get somewhat annoying after a while.

 

1. Spawn a new plane, like Shikra.

2. Destroy it with something like a Zeus lightning or similar.

3. Ejection seat goes off.

 

After a while on a MP server there will be quite a lot of broken ejection seats all over that doesn't despawn.
Also I haven't found a good way to clean it that doesn't remove something else.

Like vehicle _x isKindOf "Thing" // removes boxes and lights. 

vehicle _x isKindOf "Plane" // doesn't remove it.

 

When put into a script like this:

 

{
if (vehicle _x isKindOf "Thing") then 
{ 
  deleteVehicle _x;
};
} forEach vehicles; 

I'm thinking this will be changed, so that we don't need custom cleaning script like these.

Use parent class of the ejection seat,

Ejection_Seat_Base_F

there is no impact effect for Slammers 120mm APDSFS ammo for impacts on water (havent checked other vehicles)

 

The new driver and gunner direction indicator has some texture blending/ phasing problems (not sure how else to describe it) - parts of it go darker as you rotate on my screen.

This "Auto-ejection" issue should be fixed soon in one of next versions. Same as Garbage collector for canopies and seats.

Thanks and regards! :)

Issue with AI and its manual guide ability was sent to our programmers.

Thanks, I hope it'll soon be fixed for good. The problem has been around for quite a while, but I noticed it in the RHS mod and thought it was a mod issue. Recent changes to manual guidance prompted me to test the Scalpel, though.

Really like the new VTOL scenario, finally i can fly that thing, its cool that you really need skill for the landing, engagment of enemys ect.

Had three CTD´s while playing the scenario. Think its connected to change the vector of VTOL.

Here´s the Crash Report stuff;

Okay, there is a thing that is bugging me, which is actually already in the current released patch, and that is this thing.

In a nutshell, if you put a squad of infantry on the skids of a Hummingbird helicopter and you will get four variations of "MH-9 Hummingbird Passenger (Right Bench 1)" instead of, you know, useful information like "Combat Life Saver", "Grenadier", "AT Missile Specialist" on the multiplayer slot-in screen.

 

Now I am told that this is indeed INTENDED behavior, with the argumentation that e.g. you would need to know who the pilot or commander etc is, and "it has been default before Eden".

 

I find this argument weak at best. The information what kind of seat I am sitting on (especially in vehicles like the Prowler that only has driver and FFV seats) is completely irrelevant. In the days of yore (i.e. pre-Eden), there was no way to put a unit into a vehicle at the start of the mission except for pre-configured vehicle crews, and there it made sense since the crews were all crewmen anyway, but now, this is a mess of FFV seat names that convey zero meaning and leave everybody guessing what exactly they are signing up on. Ideally, both the position and unit type would be displayed, but this strikes me as picking the worst of all possible solutions - namely changing the 2 year old default behavior  and thus making all missions that have a team start in a vehicle a quiz show. 

 

Frankly, I have no idea why this was changed NOW, after Eden has been around for nearly 2 years.

I have to agree completely. Why change it now, when the previous behavior worked just fine...
