God I wish those lock on boxes appeared on the Javelin on official servers, cause I have no idea what I am locked on to. Works fine in the editor but the way official servers are setup prevents that.

You can get those labels with Server settings.

"Enemy Tag"
Alright. To my knowledge, none of the other pilots have this issue with the A10 mavs. Must be something on my end. Meet up on TS later tonight?WO1 Genesi said:2d Lt Yordy said:
sure does, looks like its RHS. Ill do a full re install...
EDIT: Unless it could be a different mod?
Full reinstall wouldnt help. Its a config issue with those mav's. I can take a look into it if needed

By default, operation servers do not have "Enemy tag" on, so its better to practice without.

Its more that if "Enemy Tag" is on. If you set your crosshair on a enemy, it will say. Example: Rifleman. A weapon sway can then detect a enemy 4 - 500 meters away. That is a problem. So this setting will not be set to on, not in the future either.
Here is the thing about labels with aviation.... 99% of the time we cannot see the target itself when we are engaging it. We can lock on to any vehicle friendly or enemy... It is very likely that eventually a friendly vehicle is going to get an AGM65 up the tailpipe. Our first priority is self preservation. If we are being engaged by a hostile tracked air seeking victor we will do everything we can to eliminate the threat and it is possible that with out any form of PID that we may hit a friendly. Ground may not need this to function but they sure as shit need it to make sure we don't accidentally hit you.

Then you have to find a mod/addon that solve that problem. Because adding the "Enemy Tag" wont happen if you cannot turn it off for ground forces.
not going to elaborate because I'm on my phone but no not really. 85%~ of the aircraft systems are not modeled on arma anyway. Its not like I can scan with the thermal camera to ID a target before engaging. This little bit semi makes up for that shortfallDontTouchMyHoHos said:

It wont happen unless someone finds out if we can turn this feature on for only air vehicles.
