Get_Lo Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 (edited) Shouldnt the TL (boresight) scan range be 6nm as listed below? currently 7km in game and in the module's manual. Cyrano IV manual info above, Mirage F1 manual below Edited July 22, 2022 by Get_Lo 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flappie Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 (edited) Devs say current range in dogfight mode is correct for Mirage F1CE variant.

Does this mean that for the other variants it is a different value? Weird that the Cyrano would receive a massive downgrade in ACM mode lock ranges compared to previous models. especially considering the radar in all other modes uses nautical miles, but only ACM uses kilometers. Thanks for checking with the devs though, maybe a look at the fuel glitch or lift values is in order? Edited August 10, 2022 by Get_Lo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IvanK Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 The system uses Nautical miles for ranges 2nm or greater. Inside 2NM displayed ranges on the Range drum on the sight uses Hectometres. Range display on the Radar unit itself is always in nautical miles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was referring to why they chose to go with kilometers for determining the maximum lock range, in contrast to all the times they use nautical miles. in the manuals above you can see that nautical miles was the usual trend for even the same modes, just on different countries aircraft. its unusual that they switched from 6nm to 7km, just seems weird to me 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, apparently several variants had a smaller dogfight range. This includes F1CE. No idea why. 7 hours ago, Get_Lo said: Thanks for checking with the devs though, maybe a look at the fuel glitch or lift values is in order? [off-topic] I've already looked at the track a few weeks ago, but it's so long that I keep using time acceleration, and I often forget to stop before reaching the end screen. When I succeeded, the aircraft did not look lighter to me. I'll try again today if I find some time. [/off-topic] 1 Don't accept indie game testing requests from friends in Discord. Ever.
