Title: Problems Controls
Post by: SPC (Ret) Stein on July 11, 2017, 01:11:38 PM
I have been having a problem with the ability to lock on targets  or to be able to initiate the lock on. I know i have asked a few people if they could help and they were not able to.  and also the same goes with the size of my micro dagger in game... my micro dagger no matter if i press H or Ctl+H both of them come up the same size but different positions on the screen the only big difference is obviously with Ctl+H i can zoom in and out. Is any one else having these problems and or can anyone help please.

I imagine you mean the MFD while flying regarding "H" or "CTRL+H".

Target lock depends upon weapon system, range to target, and whether or not the weapon can actually "lock" onto the target.  Which airframe and weapons are you asking about?

AH-6   Cannon and 70mm Rockets
AH-64  Cannon, Hellfire "L" model, Hellfire "K" model, AA Missiles

The Micro-DAGR sounds right to me, you cannot alter the size of it no matter what. However, if you use CTRL + H to open the micro-dagr, you can zoom in and pan around using your mouse. If you push just H, it sets it on your screen so you can quickly reference it while your running for information.

Lock-on with Launchers or with AA? For the Javelin and Titan you can only lock something in thermal vision.

Should check the keybinds? the standard and addons from mods?
