You know... I'm going to side with the OP here. I wouldn't mind at all seeing a "flight path range", so to speak, displayed. If I know my flight path range is 64KM and I'm 65KM from a target racing towards me I'll likely go ahead and fire, but if my fpr is 64KM and the target is 55KM yet racing away I won't waste the ammo.

It's fine to see a value that says "Your missile's maximum flight path is n KM". I'm still responsible for making the mental tweaks as far as realizing whether or not I'll be able to hit a moving target at a particular range heading in a particular direction at a particular speed, but just having that fpr as a fixed, easy to see value would help.

Yup, and again, as long as the fudge factor that is acceleration time is already factored in as well.. Accel time is my main priority to deal with in this thread.
