lol come back for a few sorties and watch little generals being dumb

I've seen HT say its 500, but I refuse to believe him

My squad is trained to get below 200 feet.   That way you see, if someone drifts up, we're still good.

 under 200 when squads name is clowns of death not to good of idea either way. i.e. trees or just clowning around into the drink

There are two different settings involved here.
1) RadarAlt and 2) SectorCounterAlt   so they are not necessarily the same.
Radar alt is 500' from my experience.

And now the funny answer:

It has happened :-)

But we're the good squad with the funny name, no one is so clowny that they can't operate the plane

Schatzi dear... radar has always been 500' for dot and bar. It isn't a mystery -  unless you never checked arena setup during all the years you could view it, or it has been changed since yesterday.

Also, the height/speed guidelines people have told you about torpedos are a myth. It depends on the torpedo model.

The world is full of myths and people who spread them without verifying them. Why should AH be any different?

Thanks Rolex!

If noone would spread myths, this board would be boring .


No, in all those *years* (barely two) i have been here, i never bothered to check all arena settings while i still could. Since im seldom found NOE (i usually announce my location on 200 anyway) it a rather academical discussion for me anyway.

Translation please?

[fuzeman]

Also remember this, when you used to be able to view the arena settings they may not have been the actual settings being used.
My experience as a CM you get that initial screen of settings and then a split second after, when the host uploads the current values, they then change and reflect the current arena settings.

Just according to what you have them set as. You can make them what you wish.

Why would we be worried about the enemy dots when we are talking about friendlies being under dar?  (psst...friendly dots are green by default )

[fuzeman]

Generally speaking I use default settings, keystrokes, commands or colors when I explain game related topics.

Because when the friendly is under or above radar, the enemy then will or will not see them.
You will always see a friendly whether is under or above radar.
