FCR detect targets through forest/trees

[diditopgun]

Whereas terrain and building affect FCR's line of sight, forest and trees don't.

Doesn't affect AI or George as well.

In fact it would surprise me to see the FCR being affected. Would mark a new era of realistic line of sight in DCS.

IAT also works just fine through bushes and trees. But woe you if they drive behind a transparent power pylon or something.

i think this is less of a bug with the FCR and more how DCS handles line of sight, to an extend, enven enenmy AI sees you like you see them with the FCR as far as im aware, wich is what makes it so hard to actualy sneak up on enemys

The tree collision models will block FCR transmissions, which includes the trunks and branches but not the leaves/foilage. So depending on the thickness and luck, it is possible that the FCR is still getting through.

I am doubtful given the density of trunks in this forest.
At this distance only a few trunks should be enough to block the line of sight.

But maybe the simplified render compare to real life make it possible in DCS.

I haven't been so lucky to see targets through the trees yet, I have the complete opposite FCR experience.

Can you provide the mission as a file thank you.
