Radar Range
« on: May 03, 2020, 09:22:35 pm »
Hello!
In facilities.rul (standard X-com1)
  - type: STR_SMALL_RADAR_SYSTEM
    radarRange: 1695

  - type: STR_LARGE_RADAR_SYSTEM
    radarRange: 2577

.ufopaedia.org says that means Maximum radar detection range of this facility, in nautical miles.

But in game Ufopedia it is said about 300 and 450 miles respectively. This is mistake?

Yes, the ufopedia description is wrong.

300 miles would barely cover tiny Switzerland, and only if placed in the centre :)
