Balanced Annihilation defences dysfunctional.

[LardLad3545]

Has anyone else had the problem of half of the defences not working in Balanced Annhilation 6.1? Enemies drive by and attack the stupid things and they do nothing. I try to command them myself and it's gun status just says "reloading" and nothing else. This mostly happens with missile defences like SAMs, ADVSAMS, and the (I'm going to get the name wrong but... I think somebody'll get the jist) bomb hardened medium ranged missile thingy. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

AA units don't fire at ground units. Lasers require energy to fire.

In the future, missile batteries only attack sky units.

Same with flak. Geneva Convention Holdover?

He means with using 1st person camera mode?

Alot of these defence static weapons have been locked out to prevent cheating, where some weapons actual weapon range far exceeded its limits.

A good example was with the Viper/Moho exploiter missles, you could literally fire the missles across the map, which was never intended to do so with these units.

No, his issue is obviously that he is trying to get AA-only weapons to fire at ground units.

Should say Aiming in FPS view though, not Reloading.

I suppose BA just has a lot more AA defences than XTA then which, to be honest, I really don't think it's necessary to have all of them but, whatever.
