Re: shooting range
The targets disappear at about 90m so unless they are recoded its hard to use them for longer ranges. Also as others have mentioned the damage doesn't show up at long ranges, so theyre pretty much eye candy. Something could possibly be done with triggerables, but it would be alot of hassle for very little gain.

Re: shooting range
This is actually a REALLY good idea.
Aren't sniper/marksmen kits "zeroed" at 600m though Johnny? Meaning 430m would not quite be enough (although I do realize that few shots are made above that distance).
It would be nice to have a dedicated training map with the ideas youm0nt suggested:
-RPGs
-Grenade launchers
-Snipers/DM rifles
Although clearly having all the kits would be the best option.

Re: shooting range
I set up attack markers as you can see. They show 58m (screenshot one) and 38m (screenshot two).Jonny wrote:Nope, the distance is anything upto ~430m. Which on almost all maps is all you need.
I mean the distance to the shooting targets

I think you hit a nerve there Pariel.. lolJonny wrote:No rifles are currently zeroed in PR. At all. Not one of them.
J/K
This'd be a nice addition to the training mode, if each main base had a firing range.
Even nicer if there was no tracer bug getting in the way of Jonny's work.
