Ceeeb, could you provide some sort of support for your assertion that the information from General Barron is false, the information you removed from this command I mean? | Ceeeb, could you provide some sort of support for your assertion that the information from General Barron is false, the information you removed from this command I mean? | ||

- Sure! Please note the information I removed was stated as only applying to OFP, as does the replacement info.
- "Once the target goes out of sight of the unit, his knowsAbout value doesn't instantly go back down. Rather, it slowly decreases, taking maybe a couple of minutes to go from 4 to 0."
- The old info suggests the reduction rate is linear, which is not strictly true. My note contains more correct information on what happens in this scenario.
- "So if a unit spots you, and you then teleport yourself to the other side of the island, his knowsAbout value on you could still be 3 or higher."
- This is not true, assuming "the other side of the island" = a distance larger than the viewdistance setting. Again, my note contains more exact information about what happens in this scenario. I think precise information is more useful without conflicting, misleading information on the same page. --Ceeeb 05:12, 13 February 2007 (CET)
