Radar range

[alzyrian]

I have 4 radar in my main base.  When i click on the create new base button, and see the radar range of my current base, it looks no different than when i only have one radar.  Does the multiple radar increasing range work at the moment (version 2.2.1).

No. Building multiple radars does not increase radar range. It's not supposed to. If you read that it does somewhere, that information is outdated.

There used to be a lie about this in a tip of the day. (which might still be in some installers)

I think i saw it in a tip when i loaded the game.

Thanls for clearing that up for me.

Yeah in 2.2 it does show up in a tip, that building more radar sites increases its range. Nice to know that it does not do this, as I too was wondering why with more sites the range stayed the same. I think I've read "somewhere", that there is some tech to be researched at some point to allow the building of "advanced radar sites". If that's true, and my memory is not misguiding me, I assume that it must be one of the multitude of things in the TODO list.

I could not find it on a TODO list

However, Kracken

• added "You can increase a base's radar range by building an advanced radar facility. Remember that you have to research it first!" to the wiki dev TOTD,

so, presumably he has a plan.

Advanced radar building should already be implemented in trunk (but not yet available in 2.2.1)
