I'm talking about how you are ACTUALLY supposed to code it. Not the general idea behind it. Without requiring "hack" type solutions to make it work.

I have no clue, didn't think knowing how to code was a prerequesite for making a suggestion?

I'm not trying to say it's easy, I don't think any aspect of coding a game like this is. I just don't see why it wouldn't be possible. If the tracking already occurs secretly, is adding a visual indicator that much harder? The icon would last from the time the plane locks on to when it attacks. I assume once it attacks, the plane loses its track if the vehicle is outside the radius

My instinct is that making the planes track/lose the track in the first place is the hard part and that's already done. Could be totally wrong

At the end of the day, this would only be an UI thing, cause the behaviour of the Loiter would remain the same.

this happens to all loiters and is basically a feature. It spots the tank inside the circle and attacks whereever it goes. Just try it with p47 or Sturmovik you get the same results. Calling this a stuka CAS problem is just Biased ;D
