Interception range option doesn't appear to have an effect on AAA


Recommended Posts

Interception range does appear to work for radar guided SAM sites but does not appear to effect (or doesn't have a significant effect) on AAA guns. It would be nice to have the ability to limit all units engagement range through the mission editor, ideally to set an engagement range for both air and ground targets.

Interception range is tough for AAA as it has to lead the target so much, so if you make the range too low they just wont be able to fire at all, I think this is why it doesn't really affect AAA, but I will take a look at the tracks.

Could you make it so the AAA tracks but does not fire until the target reaches the range set by the interception range option. Or remove the interception range option for those units it does not effect as having it in the mission editor is potentially confusing to users.

Personally I would prefer if this option worked for all DCS units as there are times I would like to set units in the mission editor who deliberately do not engage at their maximum range, whether they are firing at aircraft, ground targets, whatever. I have friendly and enemy units wasting ammo and giving their positions away by opening up as soon as a target is detected within their maximum engagement circle.
