Possible bug

Hi All,

I have been using the scenario editor, which is really straight forward and fun to use. In a scenario I am testing, much to my surprise, Nato Artillery repeatedly targeted a hex with only helicopters in it. I am sure this is not meant to be.

Regards John

Helicopters are assumed to keeping as low as possible. The NATO helos of course will fly nap of earth nearly all the time. The Soviet helicopters were not made for that so much (the Mi-24s cannot even hover properly) but are still fairly low down. The artillery will fire to get them to 'move along' but there is only the tiniest chance of causing any damage. Helos are considered to be high value targets though so it is worth firing at least a few rounds at them is there is no better target available.

If you have more detail and it still seems wrong then please post again.

Cheers, Rob.
