I've got 4 WPs set up in square pattern (and the home position also) and want my plane to repeat the pattern indefinitely (e.g. WP1->WP2->WP3->WP4->WP1->WP2...and so on).
I tried putting a DoJump after WP4 that says go to WP1, but the plane (both physically and in HIL mode w/ X-Plane) goes to the home location and circles after WP4. I've tried setting the repeat value at -1 as well as something > 1 with the same results. Obviously I'm not doing something right here. Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,
David

It turns out the Dummy WP is no longer needed after the DO_JUMP command. It was apparently a bug that has been squashed.

I can't get it to work. Here is a screen grab of my mission. The text file for the mission is also attached.
I've tried it using a location as the last point, after DO_JUMP, as well as RETURN_TO_LAUNCH after the DO_JUMP. Both ways it continues from the the waypoint before the DO_JUMP to the waypoint after the DO_JUMP and ends the mission.

put one more waypoint after the do jump, this is because once your repeat count is 0, it will go to this point.
so 1 > 2 > 3 >4 >dojump > 5
this will fly 1 > 2> 3> 4> > 1 > 2> 3 >4 untill repeat = 0, > 5
