Gunsight Wish
« on: September 09, 2014, 04:07:08 PM »
I don't know if this is possible with the relative simplicity Hitech is keeping the current mask display area to, we call the gunsight.

Wish:

Three modes toggled from a single key.

1. - Gunsight A
2. - Gunsight B
3. - Gunsight No Display

In reality very few gunsights had the ability to display two reticle independent of each other. Only one allowed projecting both at the same time. Masking of the main ring was the common method, while the K14 could project a fixed and moveable reticle at the same time. A third ability for the K14 was to mask the fixed reticle ring projecting only the center cross as a reference for the gyroscopic controlled movable reticle. All gunsights had a lamp on\off and dimmer rehostat.

Would be extremely useful in planes carrying weapons with wildly different ballistics (Me-410, Yak-9T) or with rockets/bombs. Alternating between a jabo and ACM gunsight on the go would be awesome! Currently I tend to use a dot for both... :uhoh

If it were done, it should be implemented based on the capabilities of the particular gunsight HTC intends to model in each aircraft.

And I'm still of the opinion that reticles ought to be fixed based on the same criteria as well.
Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

SEMP!!!!!!!! Waaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!! :ahand

I don't like looking at my toes all day long. And the cats ignore me. And the visiting nurse looks like the sponge bath brothers mother. And the only excitement I get is at noon when I have to stick myself in my tummy flab with a Coumadin shot.

Which keeps me constipated half the time. :mad: Dulcolax is aptly named if you read between the lines. :devil

Is this revenge for giving you that gunsight that makes the game too easy, and makes you feel like you are finessing your cons by any chance?........ :t

I goofed and deleted that folder a while back. So you have the only copy...... :aok

Psst....the secret to the secret sauce is there is no secret.......... :old:

I tell you if she's that ugly I'll give a sponge bath myself.   Any special attire you would like me to wear?   I can bring lawndart also if you want.

And here I have some blue Revi night filter reticle I'm thinking of releasing, and instead, all I can do is shudder at the thought of you topless in booty floss with a giant heart shaped sponge in both hands.

Marcey want's a word with you semp. She was not happy this morning finding a 5th very large ugly hairless cat in the living room trying to stick it's leg over it's shoulder to begin grooming it's self. My Doc told her I can't start exercising yet. I told her this morning the pain is the only way I can burn the image of you trying to give me a sponge bath from my brain.
