How to spot for AI

Recommended Posts

I've recently gotten into playing with AI, and at large ranges, it seems I see the enemy clearly but I cannot spot. Usually this is done automatically, but even when pressing space and hovering over the enemy I can't target him. Please help.

Hold right click on a target to "reveal" it. Doesn't always work, a lot of factors make it more difficult at times, but that's how. :)

A mod that gives the player full knowsabout for any unit he touches with his rangefinder laser would be exquisite.

I have never been able to prove it or make a good repro mission, but for me the whole spotting and reveal target system is very buggy in Arma2/OA. Lots of times I can't call a target unless I am the squad leader, some times as squad leader it doesn't work either. Other times I get bugs that prevent me from calling out a killed target, it's like the time out for confirming a downed enemy is way too short, other times it isn't.

Another one is the inability to call/reveal a killed vehicle, this never works for me in Arma2.

What's most annoying is all of these things functioned flawlessly in Operation Flashpoint. Some thing buggy has crept into this system between Arma1 and now and no one has ever sat down and taken a proper look at it because it "kind of works".

It's those tree leaves, it wont work if you are trying to spot it while having 1 leaf obstructing your view.
