Information Bug

When we log onto Aces we have the little "hint boxes" that gives us hints to the game.

I saw one the other day that said "To resupply vehicles supplies must be dropped within one mile of vehicle"  The message was pretty close to that.  However this may mislead people.  You have to drop the supplies within 600 meters.

One Mile is definitely to far. One mile is equal to 1,609 meters.
You can however pick up supplies that are 800 meters or less from you.
I have never took notice to this hint, but maybe it says 1/2 mile.

Fixed.  The correct answer is one half mile.  Thanks for the catch.

VEHICLE supplies are 1/2 mile -- like sudz said, I guess kvuo75 got mixed up!

1 yard = 0.9144 meters

Close enough for government work.

The whole meter misconception is why I put this in for the first round of help tips.

Icon and gun data distance is displayed in yards.  Altitude is in feet.  A con displaying 2K over head is at around 6,000 feet above you.

Thanks for fixin it Sudz!   

I was off?  So it is 800 meters then for Veh. Sups?  That would be nice if it is.  I be dropping them at 600.  LOL

  No distances are displayed in meters in AH.  880 yards=1/2 mile.

   I meant yards!  Oops
