before I'll start guessing pls look into cohokum folder. if "debug_log.txt" exist post here it's content.

NutsnBolts, you was right finally about flir and llltv stuff. dtv/dvo/llltv had 1.5km less view range whatever time of the day or weather conditions are. also low_lite conditions makes impossible to target on anything for both sight systems, flir has less view range at night and other strange things. how it works now:

- FLIR view range is always ~8km except rainy weather - it decreases twice, target recognition range always up to view range
- for TV and periscopes target recognition range depends on current fog distance (weather + time of the day) and lighting conditions, so at midday and good weather you can lock on target up to 7~8km, at night - about 500m ("night_light=0.8")
- possible to lock on ground point up to fog distance for all sight systems. it means if you see target far away but you can't lock on it, you can lock on ground point and launch weapon capable for such guidance ( AGM-114L, Vikhr etc. or use cannons). accuracy is decreased of course, but such attack is quite effective if you choose optimal point for current weapon trajectory.
