I will have to record footage (forgot to turn steam recording back on lmao) but I noticed some weird behaviour.

I hope these descriptions are informative and precise enough to make sense:

  1. If you select targets from the map before taking off the following can happen:
    The selected targets' hud icon will be randomly swapped with their "unselected icon" icon until target release and reselect. e.g. an aircraft will swap between triangle and square etc.
    EDIT: I wrote "map icon" before, that was incorrect, apologies.

  2. If you change your targeting profile to exclude certain unit types, and then proceed to try to select them from the map, they will still be in your target list.
    This can also result in the same target selected multiple times, if you yet again change your targeting profile to include that unit type, and select the target again.
    e.g. I was trying to select 2 LCVs a Tara dropped off, but I forgot that I excluded LCVs and just kept clicking on one of them before I realised this. So, I re-enabled LCV targeting, selected the 2 LCVs, the hud showed 2 boxes, but my MFD said 5 targets. I shot Lynchpins and all 5 of them went towards the 2 LCVs.

also important, when this happens, it is impossible to tell just by looking at the icon if the unit position is up to date on datalink.
