Solved HUD Clutter After Launching 2nd Laser Maverick
-
Sorry for img spam but - I observed 2 weird things while reproing this… no idea if related or not, but thought I should share.
A) the FPM is stuck flashing, after 2nd release, as if I have a stuck pickle button. pressing pickle doesn’t clear it. but hitting F5 then F6 to change/reset master mode stops the FPM flashing
B) after returning to AG master mode, the SPI directional indicators on HUD and HMCS are both pretty confused. Note the target (near a stpt 26 markpoint I made) is at my 5 o’clock – you can see the little dot on the TGP.
I turned to the right, back toward target, but the HUD and HMCS appeared “stuck” pointing 10 deg to the right of my nose. Eventually it seemed to unstick itself, once my nose crossed nearer/over the target area. Very weird.

I noticed this as well, but thought nothing of it – focused as I was on the cluttered HUD.
-
I was able to repro this straight away, including HMD SPI location bug.
Reported internally, thanks.

The one thing I can identify on both users images is that they are using a self generated mark-point as the initial SPI. This might be the missing link for the repro case.
-
Thanks for all the feedback, think I know where to look. I’ll keep you posted. Btw, is anyone using the 65L? This bug took a while to surface?

@Tumbler31 personally I think the laser mavs are the coolest new weapon system in ages!
probably not noticed or reported yet because you can only carry 2, and no other AG ords really, so once you fire that second shot (and after spending a few minutes heads-down focused on the TGP) there’s no reason to remain in, or ever return to, AG master mode.

@airtex2019 thanks, nice to hear! apparently some things arent as they should be, but info on them is pretty thin.
Btw the clutter should be fixed in a next release. The fpm and TLL thing I’ll also give a look later.

@Tumbler31 Thanks!

Found some time to look into it and spotted the issue. Should be fixed in a next release. Thanks again for the clear description. This really helps us making BMS better, much appreciated!

@Tumbler31 Hooray! Thanks for the continued dedication, BMS devs!
