Recommended Posts

When i played the demo, i saw the enemy appear hear and there and have no clue how far my infantry or HQ if clear LOS provided. Again the demo readme didn't mention it. Does it mention

in full ver. manual? What i wanna know is in general how far an infantry can spot a stationery infantry and a moving infantry in open ground?

If infantry has binoculars, how far he can spot a stationery infantry and a moving infantry in open ground? thanks~

Depends on the weather. If it's a clear day, it's somewhere around 450 meters. Even over open ground, they don't have infinite line of sight, because the engine abstracts little bushes, undulations, etc.

If you're wondering why they don't shoot, they won't shoot until they're comfortable that the target is in range to do some damage.

To see at any moment how far they can see, hit "L" and put the Line of Sight cursor to any target to see whether it can see it. The lighter the color "blue", the better the LOS. If it's black, they can't see it.
