Anything that is made up of primitives and identified as a design object is a group object. Primitive objects are the most basic elements and include: tracks, pads, vias, fills, arcs, and strings. There are two types of objects in the PCB editor – primitive objects and group objects.

It is therefore important to keep in mind the width of the lines used to define each object and the layer on which the object is placed. This applies to both electrical objects, such as tracks and pads, and non-electrical objects, such as text and dimensioning. Most objects placed in a PCB document will define copper areas or voids. The Associated Properties Panel or DialogĪ variety of objects are available for use in designing a PCB.Object Placement and Editing Commonality.This problem is inherent in how ED has implemented the JTAC and requires someone much smarter than me to try and fix, to work around it use separate FAC-Assign Group commands for each unit you wish to target. For GBU employment this should not present an issue since the laser will designate one particular unit, but using these coordinates for JDAM is unlikely to result in a hit. When JTAC targets a group containing multiple enemy units, he will read out coordinates that describe the approximate location of all members of that group instead of coordinates for one specific enemy. Now includes support for F-16 coordinate format (Many thanks iolsen!)

Updated on 2/16/20: Updated for DCS 2.5.6 Updated on 12/20/19: Fixed an error in the latitude seconds for the DD version Updated on 11/17/19: Updated to include F-16C and other minor changes Updated on 4/13/19: Added 2 decimal points of precision for use with JDAM's, made coordinates formatted nicely

Updated on 4/8/19: Fixed a bug that sometimes broke the radio Updated on 4/4/19: Incorporated ED's latest fix to the Rapier and SA-2 lines from the JTAC This is an updated and overhauled version of Sunski34's original M2KC coordinate mod, check it out here.

#COORDS CHANNEL MOD HOW TO#

Here you can see how to create a new waypoint and release a JDAM based on the JTAC's coordinates:

If installing manually, you must reinstall the mod after each game update.

#COORDS CHANNEL MOD MANUAL#

Manual installation instructions are included in the readme. This mod is JSGME/OVGME ready, just load your chosen 'JTAC Coordinates DMS/DM/DD' folder as you would any other mod. Each will change the format in which the coordinates are given by the JTAC.ĭMS - For the F/A-18C, coordinates are formatted as DD°MM'SS.ss'ĭM - For the F-16C, coordinates are formatted as DD°MM.mmm'ĭD - For the M2000C, coordinates are formatted as DD.MM.mm Included in the download are three distinct versions of the mod, only one can be installed at a time. Now there's no more need to stop flying and convert the coordinates to the proper format, you can simply find your targets no matter where they are on the map and then take them out with precision. This mod will allow JTAC's to read out your target coordinates in the format of your choosing instead of just the grid reference, allowing you to easily create a new waypoint at the target, or enter them into a JDAM or JSOW for a highly accurate strike.
