Terrain radar BUG!

Featured Replies

I've just spotted a bug with terrain radar.

Whenever I rotate the brightness switch, (Master Bright) my terrain radar is resizing and disappearing, than after 2-3 sec it's reappear.

Confirmed here also.

 

It's to do with the way ity is drawn. No idea if the real thing does this though.

 

Best regards,

Not a radar.  It just reads a database of elevations, just like the real one.

And I have an infinite line showing on the ND when vectors are present in flight plan.

If the real thing does not behave this way then i would guess its due to a non hardware accelerated drawing technique for the map...

Function of the real aircraft...

 

The plane has no idea if you're going to be flying that heading for 5nm or 5000nm.

Tried several times but could not reproduce this.

Can you provide more details?

Sit in your cockpit and watch your ND with terrain active, don't use pop up, now rotate the master bright switch, you will see the graphic terrain disappear or modifying it's shape while you are playing with master bright switch.
