RE: Raygun/Buddy Spike.
I’ve solved this one. “Handoff” in the RWR must be selected in order to hear the tone indicating that you’re being painted.
The AI responds with Buddy Spike because he has “Handoff” selected because he’s clever, like a computer

RE: Boresight and Cycling from A/G to A/A
@tdr As per the manual 4.37.3 page 177….after boresighting, follow the SOP……TMS down….Wide FOV…….CZ (cursor zero). All cursor slews are cancelled and you’re ready to go.

RE: New Computer
@airtex2019 @Atlas @foxster @Icer
Thank you all for your help, I’ll study your recommendations and jump in with fingers crossed
Before I do, I have to install my Virpil HOTAS and then all the other bits and pieces a BMS pilot uses.
Thanks again,
Bayonet.

RE: Viperdrivers interactive map not available
That’s very regrettable news.
Red Dog’s contribution to BMS has been enormous.
Apart from the Map, which is of huge value, his training and other manuals are a tremendous resource.
I hate to think that these and his contribution to the forum will be lost to us.Bayonet.

In the AWACS “Q” menu there are options to Check in and out.
Do these calls have any effect?

AAR with the CFT F16
Hello Forum.
MultiJp51’s video showing him refuelling from the basket with the CFT F16 is magic.
How do I select that aircraft ?
Thanks,

RE: HARM.....Attack my Target.
The command is provided because we can’t actually talk to an AI.
Right, understood.
Question answered.

RE: AAR from the basket.
@drtbkj Huge thanks for all your efforts on this one.
Real life has delayed my KTO experiment until the weekend.
I’ll send a Sit Rep asap.BTW, the tanker I used is the C-130, again for no other reason than I just wanted to look at it.
The last time I saw a C-130 up close was at 15,000 ft standing on the edge of the ramp prior to stepping off.Regards,

Logbook Score.
Hello Forum.
Are logbook points always reduced due to a poor score or an infraction during a mission?
Are logbook ranks also similarly reduced?
Thanks,
Bayonet.

Interactive map....how to use it.
Hello Forum.
As we know the much missed Interactive map has returned, thank you Devs.
Is there a “How to use” guide somewhere in the Forum?
I’ve scanned the “Docs and manuals” section, I don’t think there’s anything there sorry if I’ve missed it ! Feel free to RTFM.
I’ve read the change log and the map has multiple uses, I’m just unsure how to use them.
For example, in the tool list on the left.
I can’t highlight the dividers.
What does the T do?
Drop in an ini file, sounds great…how?Thanks,
Bayonet.

Cloud levels.
Hello Forum.
I’ve selected “Weather” at Deterministic and Inclement and “Current Weather” as Inclement.
I want to have thick cloud from 2,000ft all the way up to 20,000ft
I’ve set the Low cloud layer for inclement at 1000ft and the High layer for Poor/Incl at 2,000ft.
Look good, lots of murk and rain on the deck, however, I emerge into clear blue at 10,000ft.
How do I maintain the cloud up to 20,000ft?
I’ve checked the manual and forum, but I’m missing something.
Regards,
Bayonet.

RE: Cloud levels.
Ola @VDK como vai voce?
My settings are Current weather: Inclement, Cumulus coverage 5/8 and Cumulus congestion all the way to the left.
Even at that, I’m in the blue at 12,000. Still, it’s not a great problem considering the overall magic of BMS.
Hi @Mav-jp if it’s not a secret could you disclose what the weather settings are in the “Bad weather ILS” mission in the KTO?
Thank you both,
Bayonet.
ps @VDK sorry about the sloppy Portuguese, there doesn’t appear to be an accent key.

RE: Kadena /Iwami Navigation.
I’m using 4.37U2
Sorry if I’m being unclear.
I’m only suggesting that Toyota can be used as an exit point from Iwami.
The on screen Ground and Tower messages at Iwami still refer to Kadena (aka Fukuoua…?)
