DaBabes radars?

Post by sjohnson »

I was looking through the device file in the editor for DBB C mod. I noticed that all DBB C radars have penetration set to 0 but in stock scenario 1, many have penetration set to 500. If I recall rightly, pen setting of 500 meant air search?

Is this still the case or has this been corrected and will the DBB C radar sets actually work as intended if none of them appear to have pen 500 settings?

I don't think radar penetration is relevent to AE. I think it was used in the prior version.

See this thread for more info

Pen = 500 is not used to indicate Air Search radar. It was this way in the original WiTP.

In AE, there is an attribute 'Air Search' that needs to be checked to indicate this. Without it checked, the radar is assumed to be non-'Air Search'.
