Hi.

For example. In the ebp of the Sherman M4A3 tank I modify the values cone angle and outer radius in the ebpextentions\sight_ext\sight_package. This modification only apply to the hull of the tank and not in the turret.
So, the cone angle is limited to the position of the hull tank.

Is possible to set this cone angle from the hull separately from the turret.

May be you know the way to put a separate line of sight in the turret, perhaps through the gun hardpoint.


Regards.

Unfortunately, no. It looks like they may have prototyped this at one point, because there is a sight_hardpoint, but it does not work.

Relic a while back also mentioned that the sight system had a noticeable performance hit, so they kept it simple to avoid slowdowns on slower machines. So this means that entities can only ever have one radius of sight on it. It also means that not every man in a squad has sight, only a couple do and the rest are blind; this one is noticeable when you have a squad of men go around a building, as sometimes the lead man is past the corner but what's there isn't revealed until another man clears the corner.

:(

So we need to wait 10 years for faster machines to use this...

Thanks for the info.
