Padlock box don't disappear
-
manual said "the coloured box disappears after a couple of seconds. "
i set it to both enhance and realistic, but the green box stay there forever. -
Is your target locked on your Fire Control RADAR (FCR)? Is your Helmet Mounted Cueing System (HMCS) on?
If so, what you are seeing is not the padlock box, but rather the FCR displaying your bugged target through the HMCS.

Not sure if it’s a configurable parameter. It’s definitely more than a couple seconds, by default… I rarely stay padlocked on something long enough for it to timeout. So effectively it may as well be on forever.
If I had the option I’d keep the yellow indicator which shows what you’re selecting to padlock, but probably get rid of the green indicator that stays on forever / long time.
Edit: there is
set g_bNoPadlockBoxes 1
but last I tried it takes away the yellow selection indicator too … so you can’t see what you’re selecting to padlock on. -

ok now i knew the answer:
manual misinform me, it is not “a couple of seconds”, it is 60 sec.
maybe my english is bad, “a couple of sec” should be less than 10 sec, right? -
A couple is 2. Just like a pair.
A few is… less defined.
Maybe that generates confusion.

I think the “couple seconds” in the doc is referring to the yellow selection indicator. Your understanding of english is fine … the doc could be more clear.
