I'm not sure if this is working as intended, but I was trying to open fire on a UAV with the OTO Melara 76mm Super Rapido DART, and it seems that the large majoity of ammo fired do not 'acquire' their target. I mean, if you select the ammo while in flight you can see it has a TARGET, but almost all of them (some do) have no 'white line' connecting to the target, and the chat shows no hit or miss calculation, but only the self detonation at the end of the flight.

In the scenario attached I put some targets in range and WRA on HOLD, so you need to manually fire. If you fire a large number of ammo or all as salvo default, you will be able to see the white line and destroy the target, probably. But if you fire just a few, there is a high chance of seeing no white line connecting to the target and no calculation in chat.

Hi, thanks for the report. I'm not able to reproduce this, can you try taking a video or uploading a different save/scen?

I tried again, using that scenario, on 1328.14 latest steam no manual patches. I made more tests so I understand more and can explain better.
It seems random, so you need to play with the salvo size and try on multiple target, there is no certain way to repro.

If I fire a single or a few rounds (unless super lucky, i don't know, too time consuming to test) I get the following



- cannon fires
- the projectile has a target
- it shows a green system bar
- it shows no plotted course (white line)
- it shows a red marker somewhere else with time, converging on the target
- the projectile goes beyond the target
- there is no endgame in chat
- after dozens of seconds you get a detonation endgame, not shown here


If i fire several projectiles (30+ seems a sweet spot, or a lucky spot) I get the following:



- the cannon fires A LOT of ammo at the same time (infinite ROF? intended?)
- all projectiles again have a target
- some of them now show a plotted course, and those that do:
- they show no green system bar
- they have no associated red marker
- they generate a hit or miss endgame

I don't think I can do more to show what I see on my side. Thanks.

I am currently trying this on the current internal build and everything _seems_ to be working as expected.

When the next update is released, can you please give this another try? Thanks.

Just tested on the lastest Steam version .18 and I can confirm that now everything seems fine.
