I discovered this last night also. The problem is that if you look at the cockpit displays, regardless of the system being used, the laser will always be on until you switch that system off. Proof of this came last night. I was hiding behind a building, I switched on the FLIR to get a look of the field. I started getting shot at. Ducked down behind the building, switched the FLIR off, and went around and came back behind the same building. I popped up and nothing happened until I started the FLIR back up, then a few seconds later, the radars started locking me up.

Yes, please see the above postings. I even replicated the problem again last night. Talk about adding a new dimension to a sim. This is awesome.

No enemy reaction unless I am firing my weapon. As I am often using passive systems, SAMs are starting to be active when fired at, not when I lock them. Might only be affecting human players... Oliver "Duckman" Fels
