arty/mortars etc.. FOW question

Post by lunarwolf »

many times when arty, mortars, etc... shoot, I have noticed that their icon doesn't always show up in fog of war. it's very on and off. (at least I can spot nebs from the smoke)

is it just me or have you had a similar experience?

It only shows where they are, if they hit you, or what is the problem?

I would ask here if they should get visible in the FoW for a short time when they deal damage. Or rather why is it that way? slow moving or unmovable arty pieces get instantly visible for the enemie just when they deal some damage to them and thus most arty pieces make one salvo and get instantly countered by enemie arty pieces. Maybe they shouldnt get visible at all once they hit a target? If the enemie wants to find them to counter he would or should need recconassaince. I mean in reality you would also not know instantly where the enemie arty piece is being placed when they are hiting you.


I would even say that arty pieces and mortars etc would not become visible in FoW

Honestly I am not sure if it can even be changed.
