LRC Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 Here is a strange one. I am not sure yet if this is a bug or if I am missing something. A teamA of 3 (no bino, veterans, not hiden, in orchard) spots a tank 300m away. Spotting is marginal => LOS lost if moving left/right. By consistent when returning to this action spot. Now a ATGM team (no binocular, veterans, not hidden) arrives in the *exact same location* and they can't spot anything. I specify a target arc focused on the location => still can't spot the tank . During all this time, the first teamA still spots the tank. I pull back the TeamA. Reorder the ATGM team in the same location => still no spotting... Am I missing something or is this a bug ? Assuming the problem is that ATGM has LOS obstructed by a tree, wouldn't it be more realistic to assume that all teams sharing the same action spot also share the same spotting capability (except in the case of hardware difference like binos or IR goglles) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slug88 Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 How long did you let the ATGM team sit there before you determined they weren't going to spot the tank? Sometimes it'll take a full minute or two, but I've always managed to get teams seeing what they should be seeing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elmar Bijlsma Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 Is the ATGM crew "spotting" or still "deploying"? If the LOS is already marginal, it might just make the difference. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
