0002666: M2010 & M24 only range to 1000m but the description says 2000m
Hello, I'm hoping someone can help me please. First off, please let me say I am quite new to modding ARMA so I apologise if I miss something.

So, I believed I had installed RHS correctly, everything seems to be working ok. But today I discovered that some reason the M2010 and M24 although sold in traders as Sniper rifles, they show up in the Infistar admin menu as Assault rifles, as a result they both only range to 1000m regardless of the scope used, even the LRPS.

Have I done some wrong, or is the 2000m range in the description wrong and 1000m is correct???
Appreciate any help.

Regards

Traders? Infistar? Doi not know what you mean here. Also are you sure that ACE is not running? That is known to cause issues with rifles firing over 1000m.

Hi Soul Assassin, sorry let me explain.

Like lots of people, I'm running RHS on ARMA 3 Exile mod as RHS works perfectly with it and fits in nicely. Many people that are far more knowledgable than me with coding and modding say that RHS works with Exile with no issues as it's core is still A3.
Exile has traders where you can buy gear. Also, InfiStar is an admin tool and anti-cheat. As for ACE, if you mean Advanced Combat Environment, then no I do not have it installed, I didn't even know what it was and had to Google it :)

So, I checked with a few other servers also running RHS and they confirmed the same issue with the M2010 and M24. Although we have them installed correctly, the game seems to think they are assault rifles and therefore will not allow them to range over 1000m.

I hope this helps explain everything a little more.

That des explain some things. Although I am unsure as to the solutions. The game cannot distinguish between rifle and sniper rifle. To Arma 3 they are the same thing. My guess is that in Exile, some scripts do that based on some criteria. Since we dont play with Exile and have no idea how Traders and Infistar work, we have no idea what is required to fix it.

Arrh, that's a shame. I've posted a question regarding this on the Exile site to hopefully find some more knowledgable people with scripting that might be able to figure out what causes this bug.

I will update this thread when I find some more info.
