The Radar Station is not active with the ST radar implemented. That's what I mean about the ST Radar....it doesn't work with the games radar station. What good is a radar report if you can't use the radar unit to know the distance to target? As I said, the ST Radar is not functional. It doesn't have the same game functionality as the other surface radar units which uses the radar station to show targets.
Ok, we have a pesuedo ST radar in TMO, not a fully functional, historically accurate one, fine.SD radar does not have a display in the game either, you have to use the map and that gives too much info for SD as it couldnt give a bearing really.Unfortunately, as you know all too well, sometimes have to cut corners, settle for certain things in this game.For range, have to use the map contacts like the SD radar, gives too much info but how it is.Ducimus created a psuedo ST radar on the Tench, it's nice to have, and would be a great option for upgrade later in the war so thus my original post.Would like to make it an upgrade.
