Mystery waypoints not shown in campaign planner show up on HSD- what causes this?
-
As you can see there are random waypoints to the left branching off of my actual waypoints straight ahead. I am on a strike mission to a nuke plant which is my only target. I didn’t plan those extra waypoints. Why are they there?
-
Do you mean the left circle to the left of you? That’s the alternate Airfield.
But I guess you mean those on your 10 o’clock?
Did you save your DTC in the planner, and load it at ramp?Did you want to change WPs of other package and made a mistake perhaps?
Do you use some Background tools like WDP or so? They can add addititional things like PPT and Lines, but you can add also VIP and VRP.
If it is always the same offset from the Target STPT, then I would say VIP/VRP perhaps? -

I do not know what you mean by this. Everything it normal, and I did no modifications to the AI set waypoints which did not include the ones to the left.
WDP was not used.
In another mission I did right after that one the same steerpoints are there. I guess it might be a VIP thing, AWACS is close to it but not under attack at all (enemy air force is near zero anyways)

Yes I had this problem. I found it was persistent WPN steerpoints. So in the recce screen you have to “clear all” then just use STPT to assign targets. WPN is for SPICE or Delilah weapons I think. Hope that helps.

I’ll look into that, thanks for the suggestion!

Actually i’ve notice the same thing like couple days ago. Indeed, clearing Target waypoints in DTC, selecting proper one, saving and then loading DTE solved issue for good.

As others said if I read well, your DTC indeed contains a former target programmed on a steerpoint, and it wasn’t properly cleared. It’s not necessarily your fault, it sometimes doesn’t clear as expected when you leave the game and come back, for example, - well, I think that’s what used to happen to me before I check my DTC prior to ramp every time.
