Hey Gippo nice to seeya.
How does the lock on range change to the density of the rain?
IR Seekers normally have a limited Lock on ability when rain occurs.

Greetings.

It actually limits the lock-on range. Also on AT. It's probably intentional, so I don't think there's a bug here actually.
Vehicles with radar are not affected, but that makes sense as well I guess.
It's just it created some balance issues, but I think we can deal with it.
