1821. Observations on scan radius, chevrons, etc - in General Discussions [original thread]

Oh yeah. There's all kinds of fancy stuff involved. For example, if a unit goes behind a hill. You can KIND of see it... when it's near the top. But as it goes down the hill, and more of it is in the way, the signal slowly fuzzes out, so to speak....

This happened to me just now. I share it as a cautionary tale. I was up on a relatively high hill. I had just "retired" some guy below me, in a medium suit, I think. Technically, he was "on a hill", but it was kinda a low-ish hill, comparatively ...
