Both NATO and CSAT Remote Designators fire lasers slightly off vision line, resulting in imprecise lasing. On the other hand same handheld laser designators work properly.

Steps To Reproduce
- Start editor, any world (preferably one with hills for easier observation)
- Place player unit
- Execute this code:
player setDir -90;
player linkItem "B_UavTerminal";
uniformContainer player addMagazineCargoGlobal ["Laserbatteries", 1];
player addWeapon "Laserdesignator";
player selectWeapon "Laserdesignator";
[player] joinSilent createGroup blufor;
{
private _pos = player modelToWorld [-1 + _forEachIndex * 2, 4, 0];
_pos set [2, 0];
systemChat str _pos;
private _uav = createVehicle [_x, _pos, [], 0, "CAN_COLLIDE"];
_uav setPosATL _pos;
_uav setDir getDir player;
_uav setVectorUp surfaceNormal _pos;
units createVehicleCrew _uav joinSilent createGroup blufor;
player connectTerminalToUAV _uav;
} forEach [
"B_Static_Designator_01_F"
,"O_Static_Designator_02_F"
];
for "_i" from 1 to 6 do {
createVehicle ["Land_Canal_WallSmall_10m_F", player modelToWorld [-15 + _i * 5, 15 * _i, 4], [], 0, "CAN_COLLIDE"] setDir getDir player;
};
if(isNil"testeh") then {
testeh = addMissionEventHandler ["Draw3d", {call draw3d}];
};
draw3d = {
{
if(alive _x) then {
drawIcon3D ["\A3\ui_f\data\map\markers\military\destroy_ca.paa", [1, 0, 0, 1], ASLtoAGL getPosWorldVisual _x, 0.5, 0.5, 0, str _x, 0, 0.04, "PuristaMedium"];
};
} forEach ((allUnitsUAV apply {laserTarget _x}) + [laserTarget cameraOn]);
};0- Fire handheld laser designator at some object or terrain, observe that laser target perfectly aligns with line of sight
- Connect to NATO Remote Designator, fire its laser, observe that its slightly off, seems to be related to direction, more noticeable when aiming west or east.
- Connect to CSAT Remote Designator, fire its laser and do same observations.
Additional Information
Perhaps this can be solved with config changes, but I don't have access to model source to see where memory points are exactly and how they're rotated.
