Aeon Frigate Glitch

Postby AwarE » 07 Jun 2013, 08:08

I am seeing a problem with Aeon Frigates where they can see stealth-ed units. Is this a glitch or have they always had this ability?
In the case that I saw Aeon was able to target units on the shoreline under two UEF stealth generators. The frigates could not target the UEF units as they were out of range, but the destroyers could.

Frigates have a vision radius of 32, range of 28. Vision radius nullifies stealth, so if the stealthed units were between range 28 and 32 of the frigates, frigates can't shoot them but see them.

Sorry pip have to disagree... the Aeon destroyer has the same vision radius and it can NOT see the units. The frigate is seeing them with its radar or sonar.

PS. i would say these units are being seen at a range of about 65, near twice the vision radius.

Other possibility : Frigate have 80 radar, Destro 35. If the player using stealth has no power, frigate's radar will detect them. But without replay, nothing can be found.

There is no special code for the fregate.

looks like i'm wrong ...I did not realize Cruisers had vision of 65.

PS. I can't give that replay because map is not in vault. I will test it again to see if it is cruisers that are giving sight.

Correct. Cruisers have superior intel capablities to frigates. Cruiser vision would provide intel support for the Destroyers against stealthed bases.

Yes the Cruiser has a large visual sight circle of 130 diameter .... what I did not know was that it can 'see' straight through a mountain.
Thanks for your replys.
