Turnpoints in Condor 2

Post by Didivolk66 » Sat Feb 24, 2018 4:56 pm

Hi guys
In Condor 1 the not passed turn points showed up yellow after passing turned white, Now in my Condor 2 they are white passed or not passed and connected with blue lines, What is the use of it ??? I find it rather disturbing and the old way better.
Regards didi

Press J to turn them off if you don't like them.

Thanks for nothing. :evil: I had questions about 'Nephi' which does not work that well. But considering the snotty answer I better keep it for myself. :mrgreen:
Not to friendly regards Didi :roll:

We can not miss the blue lines! :shock:
In my opinion it serves to extend the laundry. No that's not it ? :mrgreen:
By activating the J key during flights without a PDA it will be easy to follow the right direction... So flights without PDA will have no interest on Condor2 if the J key is active! It would be nice to create a fix for those who want to remove the blue lines, or reduce their thickness! thx

The other issue I have found is that the TP markers are visible at all ranges, not just within the radius set within the NOTAM tab.

On the Long Good Friday task 2, the Ipswich TP marker is visible from Old Warden (101km away !)

Indeed, they were. The blue task helper lines also blunted the difficulty of the no-PDA task (This was the first no-PDA task I participated in since the early days of Condor 1 and I did actually have a map marked up for mk1 eyeball based navigation).

May've with PDA disabled (as well as fixing the visibility range), make the marker pole shorter (100M AGL?), and either remover the track information, or make it much more of a brief hint of direction to fly when "J" pressed. :evil:

Taskpoint issues should be sorted out in the next patch.

You have to take screenshots of the turnpoint over your left wing in order to start the task and to turn the turnpoints (except for the finish).
