Hi, All-
I believe I found an issue with this scenario, but please let me know if it's just me.

In this scenario, the two Freedom-class LCSs (2008 entry) seem unable to fire their RGM-176B Griffin IIB missiles no matter what I do--they complain of "No weapons director available to illuminate the target", even when I put the Fire Scout UAV in the air and/or go active with the KAX-2 Laser Rangefinder manually.

The scenario's file creation date is 3.7.16, I'm running the 1.11 RC6/Build 807 version of the game, and the database is 442. File is the one packaged with the game in the latest update (thus I didn't attach it).

(Sorry if this post should've been in the database3000 or scenarios forums instead--went with tech support given the scenario is part of the full game.)

Thank you!

The Griffen only have a range of 3nm

You need to attach the file that is saved from the exact moment of the issue. There are just too many variables for the devs or anyone else to set up the exact issue you are seeing.

I think I've got it, too - Griffin missile requires illumination from a laser designator (laser rangefinder is unsuitable for this). Both Griffin missile and laser designator are not standard equipment of LCS, they have to be added manually in the editor. LCS in the included scenario (just taken from Standalone Scenarios folder) lacks laser designator, therefore they are not able to use Griffins.

Fire Scout has a laser designator, but this can't be used for guidance - Griffin doesn't support buddy illumination.

Thanks for reporting guys. No illumination. This scenario needs a workover anyways.

Thanks!

Mike

Hm the ships never received the weapons IRL and we updated the database... Somehow the weapons were registered in the INI file so they were re-added after rebuild. Removed from INI now, so the LCSs should be correctly armed in the upcoming (rebuilt) version of the scenarios.
