coe Posted April 12, 2001 Share Posted April 12, 2001 I still can't seem to figure out how to make the mortars fire at a target they can't see - Ok, I have 2 81mm mortars in command from a company headquarters which can see the target (so the lines from the HQ to the mortars are red command lines, the HQ has a blue LOS to the target. but the 81 mm mortars have black lines to the target of course target is outside of minimum mortar range (but inside max range) ok next steps?

Murph Posted April 12, 2001 Share Posted April 12, 2001 Coe: So far so good. Now just target from the mortars, to the victim. The line will appear as black or red, but never mind (since it is true that you still can't see them). The hey is that the target line will "stick", and you'll get a yellow line for area target, ending right on top of your designated target. Hit GO and watch the mortars fire away. This was confusing to me at first, because I kept expecting the target line from the mortars to be magically blue. But it's just a matter of being able to "stick" the line to the target. Try doing the same somewhere where your HQ unit cannot see. The line won't stick. Hope that makes sense. Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
André Posted April 12, 2001 Share Posted April 12, 2001 Just order your mortars to fire at the target in view of the commanding HQ unit. You will see a yellow line indicating the mortar is able to fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
