0005696: Raven (RQ-11) laser designator and laser pointer does not show to other players in MP
When using the Raven (RQ-11 via the 'Eagle A-III OCP (Raven) backpack), the laser designator does not function for other players. Pilots in any type of airframe are not able to see and lock on to the laser. There is also no way to adjust the Laser Code for the attached laser designator.
A similar fault is in the 'Tactical Laser' that is on the Raven. It is not visible to any players other than the user of the Raven.
1. Play in any MP server with at least one other person to pilot an airframe with munitions that have the ability to lock on to a laser designator normally.
2. Lase a target with the default Laser Designator to verify the airframe can hold a lock.
2. Get out, assemble, and get the RQ-11 Raven in the air. Use the GCS to control it.
3. Fly the Raven to the target location previously tested with Laser Designator.
4. Press 'ENTER' on the numpad (key to turn on laser designator). Note that it says '**LASER DESIGNATOR ON**' at the top of the Raven HUD.
5. Check with pilot to see if he has a lockable target. He doesn't.
The Raven is a super cool addition to the RHS modpack that has faults since it was first added. These faults make the Raven not practical to use in MP missions.
It would also be nice to get a large overhaul to the Raven. Like if the Raven was interacted with via the UAV terminal/Rugged Tablet or via an item 'GCS' that is carried in the Arma 'Terminal' slot on a unit. Something that would require an ACE self-interaction to use the Raven, not use a small, buggy terminal that you drop on the ground to use.
No tags attached.

Same issue here.
I've checked the files for Raven and it seems that Raven uses vanilla laser strings... so I'm confused.
