[BUG] Missile Guidance Computers

The Missile Range Script doesn't work at all. The module treats the script like nothing is equipped. A google search raised the possibility it was a display issue, but in-game, the torps will disappear at the stated range on the module, and there is no damage that shows up to indicate it is also a visual bug.

The precision scripts work just fine.

Steps to reproduce:
1.) Fit out a Nemesis
[Rig]
Small overclocking
Small ionic field projector
[Low]
Missile Guidance Enhancer II x2
[Mid]
Missile Guidance Computer II x3 - Missile Range Script x3
F-90 Positional Sensor Subroutines - Targeting Range Script
[High]
Covert Ops Cloaking Device II
Torpedo Launcher II x3 - Inferno Javelin Torpedo


Fleet boosted range: 160km
Base Torpedo range without scripts: 138km http://i.imgur.com/xCsBowr.png
Torpedo range WITH range scripts: 138km http://i.imgur.com/ZZ64QIc.png

Torps always disappear at that range.


2). Activate MGC without scripts
3.) Avtivate MGC with range scripts.
4.) Math, shoot something at the supposed range. In my case Torp range ~160-164km.

-Bumb- This needs to be fixed. Range scripts not working is a very bad bug.

Missiles, for one, have a separate bug giving them a nasty habit of sometimes vanishing at near-to-max ranges, even when you should hit due to how the server calculates range.

I haven't seen this on anything I've used, though I don't fly bombers, so it could be an issue with them. I'll keep an eye out for it, but I don't really use them often enough as is, so I may see nothing anyways. Tooltips were for a while not long ago buggy with having false numbers, so it may be a weird combination of that cropping up again and the missile "falloff" (name seems rather fitting actually) bug. Shame, bombers seem like one place that vindicates these otherwise worthless-to-marginally-useful mods.

"Tomahawks?"

"----in' A, right?"

"Trouble is, those things cost like a million and a half each."

"----, you pay me half that and I'll hump in some c4 and blow the ---- out of it my own damn self."

Bump. Just had this myself. Torpedoes without script go for 38km, with script they go for 40, the same as using the Guidance Computer II without any scripts. And yes, i am sure i leaded it in.

I even tried orbiting a rat at 50 to see if it was just showing the wrong number, but torps dissapeared before they hit.

Not sure how to reproduce it though. Don't exactly have any other characters with enough skills in missiles to see if they get the bug too.

It would help if all of you submit BUG REPORTS ingame or here on the website like the devs are asking everyone to do all the time
