Weapon Tracks

Destex · 11-02-13, 10:41 AM

Does anyone know what this option suppose to do? I expected to see on the weapon control map tracks or bearing lines that the torpedo picks up with its active or passive sensors, but I don't see those even when the ADCAP is tracking a target. I'm pretty sure this torpedo has this capability in real life.

What am I missing out here?

PDF Manual says :
"WEAPON TRACKS: When this button is ON (lit) all waypoints
assigned to any land attack missile or mobile mine display on the map.
When this option is OFF only the waypoints for the weapon assigned to
the selected contact show on the map. Click to toggle the state of this
button."

So nothing to do with torpedoes.

Thanks SwordfishCrew, I don't know how I missed that in the manual.
I guess "Torpedo Own Picture" is something that needs to go now in a feature request thread. I'll go search for one.
