Rotating radar at operator's station

Zero Niner · 05-10-08, 07:03 PM

The sonar works ok, but radar is strange.
perhaps I could remap the keys?

Sure you aren't using PE3 also?

Zero Niner · 05-10-08, 08:55 PM

Nope, just as my says. Plus latest patch for RSRDC. And I made some minor modifications (key remppings) to Duci's layout in TMO - just a few keys.

Well, this happens with PE3 because of changes to the camera, so the same changes must be in TM. I don't think there is any way around it for the time being.

click the radar screen...

I know that works with PPI, but I don't know about A-scope.

Yes, it sounds like you have a 'free camera' in the radar station instead of the necessary fixed camera. You can look sideways at the PPI scope and click on the bearing you want the antenna to point to as gimpy/akdavis say, or you can switch to the PPI scope and click on it there and switch back to the 'A' scope, or you can use the middle mouse button scroll wheel. Each click on the scroll wheel is equivalent to one fifth of a degree.
