Dead scouts still scouting

[Evildrew]

Hi everyone,

I noticed in a game that a scout which i had shot down was still scouting and revealing my buildings to the enemy as the wreckage was flying through the air.

Is this supposed to be like this?

Ps the scout was revealing the buildings but did not have direct vision, seems the radar or the plane might still have been working as the wreckage was melting through the air.

Are they supposed to give intel when they are dead flying through the air? I see the same with building UEF Frigates' jamming already active before they roll out the navy factory...

I just finish reading it, it reminds me the Titan thread...

I wonder if it's possible to make all spy planes blow up in mid air. Before FAF, air units had a chance of just blowing up completely. Crash spying is kinda lame. I would like it removed if possible.

It would allow players with strong AA and air power to hide their units/bases better. It may indirectly *gags* buff Cybran. LOL.

just don't build all aa behind what you don't want to be seen and maybe consider building more than just static units then wrecks won't scout more than barren lands and some spread forward sam.

That is not the problem, Dead scouts scouting makes no sense, but noob players usually dont scout or scout bad, so if you put things harder for them, they will start complaining.
In a ideal world, scouts dont scout when they are dead and players dont send scouts through areas with AA.
