fixed Radar never looses target with controller.getDetectedTargets

[Gracey]

When testing the Radar(EWR FuMG-401 Freya LZ) systems in the WW2 Asset pack, I have found that the Radar when using controller.getDetectedTargets never looses the target once the target is captured. 

This only looses target once Destroyed or de-Spawned.

 

Edit: We've also tested this with Ships, Visual Detection, never seems to loose target.

getDetectedTargets remembers the targets -as I remember right- up to 60 minutes. This should simulate that you have an idea where the enemy is. If you want to check if you can really see the target, you have to check the line of sight.

This issue is reported internally.

@Pikey does the fix you mentioned here apply for this issue as well?

Yes this is the same thing. The defect was that ground units (not air units for whatever reason) didn't "forget" the list of what they detected. This meant that if you flew up, got seen by an EWR, then ducked behind a hill, if you asked that controller for the list of targets it sees, you are still on that list. This wasn't an easy bug to understand because most folks cannot tell that they were legitimatly detected or when. The entire thing is compounded by the ability for the EWR Task to send DLINK detections to planes. If a ground controller has a detection and an EWR Task it will send  the detection to any plane. So a Mig 15 could and did chase you all over the map based on this bug. And since no one understands that in the first place, then Reddit just exclaims that the AI has superpowers, when in fact a simple defect caused this since last November.

I felt very strongly about this defect.

Thanks for the quick reply and the extra detail.

I have completed some further testing as it seems that there was a tag added to the Title of this post "Fixed".

They have fixed this radar issue, it now drops the detection when outside of the Radar "Cone"

Ground units are also working perfectly. Once I duck behind the coast line, the Unit can no longer see after a few seconds.

I did a short little video to cause why not show it in action.... > Video

Thanks for the check, @Gracey.

Can you please tell me if this is fixed too?

Doesn't seem so. I did a little further testing(not much) and I think I confirmed the issue. 
I'll reply to that thread.
