CMRT Pz.IV spotting insanity

[Das Morbo]

Let me make myself more clear -

I am not saying that I expect everyone to be happy with every event,
I am not saying that the game is perfect,
I am not saying that these close range encounters are always correct. 

What I am saying is that CMRT is *no* different from the other games, 
I am saying that BFC does not consider these to be a high priority (they know that close encounters are a problem and they have made changes and continue to consider more),
I am saying that I know of no logged defects in the queue to be fixed that would change any of this.

Okay that is an answer I can live with, thank you!


About the main issue of this thread:

What has been said is definitely true - the LOS-tool just considers ground-level to ground-level line-of-sight. *

Maybe from 1 meter (3 feet) hight of a kneeling man, not more. You can see it working in the game from time to time, when soldiers spot something they are not expected to while still moving, but loose sight of it once they go to the ground.
What is more, if you have a spotter like a tank for example, the resulting LOS is different once it is in position due to its height of 2-3 meters. Same holds true if the target is big.
I guess it would be too demanding on the processor of the Computer-System to program a routine which considers type of unit requesting LOS.

Bottom line in this case is, this is not a bug but something very hard to program.


* Have you seen all the "-" in one scentence? Wow!
