spatialtime 10 Posted August 9, 2009 (edited) Hi, When I have an American UAV (MQ-9) and want to select armored vehicles with the hellfire missles it doesn't let me. I right click on the targets, but in place of that it changes the view type (from first person to 3rd person, same function as ENTER in default). How can this issue be resolved. This problem also occurs with most other air units. Note that I tried to change controls with no success. I hope to hear from you soon. Thanks in advance. Kind regards, Mab Edited August 9, 2009 by spatialtime Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daveyboy154 10 Posted August 9, 2009 If memory serves, I think you press Tab to select targets - can't check at the moment. Try the tutorials, it showed you how to do it in there. Dave Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spatialtime 10 Posted August 9, 2009 Thanks for your reply. I tried that. However that doesn't always work. Example (just tested with 2 APCs and 2Urals): It did select two APCs, but it wouldn't select the 2 Urals. I don't know why. The pilot did 3 fly overs.

Daveyboy154 10 Posted August 9, 2009 I'm not sure then - have you had a look through your controls options and key bindings to see if there are any clues in there? Dave Edit - actually, looking at your first post I think you already did! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
santafee 10 Posted August 9, 2009 Got the same problem and its really annoying...Many times the target system does NOT lock on the target,if it does not if range to target is less then 1500meters.Not pretty realistic at all... ---------- Post added at 08:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:44 PM ---------- Got the same problem and its really annoying...Many times the target system does NOT lock on the target,if it does not if range to target is less then 1500meters.Not pretty realistic at all... Eh...just found the problem....Its more like a bug...Its the viewdistance.Also its pretty weird,cause if always detect the enemy but cant lock on.if u turn the view distance up u will see it works 99%....

Oh_Heck 10 Posted August 9, 2009 A little off topic, but I'ld love to find out how you are piloting the mq-9. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just tried this myself and had the same results. I don't know if it's a bug or intentional but it seems anything in the cars category cant be locked on by a hellfire with Tab, only by centering the crosshair on the vehicle and right-clicking. I don't remember having this problem in 1.02. -edit- helicopter guns are also changed or bugged. Gunners are automatically targeting things even if you have manual fire turned on, and you can no longer Tab-target cars when the gun is selected.

spatialtime 10 Posted August 10, 2009 (edited) Another thing, you can eject from the UAV, and you get a soldier with a parachute. Its an UNMANNED aerial vehicle, so the operators are not in the plane, but at an operating center remote controlling the UAV. Am I wrong?
