Hey guys,

So, I'm running GWX with SHCmdr. The question I gotta ask is when you are using early war radar (like the one what does +-10 degrees, etc), why does the radio man need to do a full 360 degree sweep. Is there a patch or a file to edit that will limit the sweep to +-10 degrees? I searched but found nil.

Thanks

Sorry bout the bump, I was away for a few days. Yes, the wheel is what I speak of. It seems that the game only has a design for the 360 degree radar and not a restricted one for early radar. In real life, a radioman wouldn't do a 360 degree search if his radar was only effective on his bow.

True! A Radioman would've only sweeped the are his aparatus is capable of and Covers. But they designed the game to cover up all the Radar types.

I would expect the captain would slowly do a 360 degree circle on the surface.
