TE and IDM - wingmates not showing on HSD
-
I’ve got a few 2 and 4 ship TEs that I’ve created to practice formation flying and refueling. I can’t seem to locate any of the other aircraft in the package. As far as i can tell the other ships are setup in the DED but when i ping them or set the IDM to CONT, they don’t show up on the HSD.
Please tell me what am i missing.
Thanks. -
Some things to check: With the AI you need to be on UHF 6 to see their IDM symbols on the HSD. It is a limitation with the AI, in MP everyone just needs to be on the same UHF channel.
The AI limitation also means that once the flight uniform channel has changed for approach (UHF 4) or tanker ops (UHF 13), you will lose the AI symbols.
Other than the UHF setting, you should have CONT highlighted using Comms Left (or is it Right?).

CONT is for it to repeat the rounds automatically. Not advised in multiplayer, especially with more than 8 people.
Out from tactical, for example in approach, you share the frequency with a bunch of flights that are not in your package. AI or not, datalink rounds are not advised. -
@LorikEolmin Got it - thanks!!
