Radar Perma-Reveal

Post by mcmase »

This is a possible bug, but not 100% sure so wanted to check here first...

I removed a radar but the area of the map has not since faded to black. Does anything else provide vision (besides player--I'm not in the area)? I was doing a design for my base and wanted one "secret" area off the map, this used to work before space age. This is on Nauvis... not sure what other details to provide.

Roboports provide radar functionality as well. A smaller area and they don't scan long range, but they enable live view in a range of 2 chunks.

Roboports having radar vision is one of the best improvements to 2.0 and SA.
Anybody want to fight me on this?

Not having to have radar everywhere when I megabase should help UPS considerably.
And, it makes exploring large areas (like looking for coal on Vulcanus) much more enjoyable.

Cargo landing pads also have radar coverage.

That makes sense... thanks. Had no idea!

Guess I'll need another solution then
