Greetings.
It appears that Keyvias wants rangefinders to be tested and it requires more than just one player to do so.
While tampering with range finder alone I noted this oddity - while captain has a range finder equiped on helm of mobula, he can't receive the feedback regarding the distance to enemy ship.
Therefore testing this issue will be put on To-Do list as well.
When?
Semptember 20, 2014.
16:00 UTC
Minimal Requirments for session:
1) 4 captains with range finders.
2) 3 gunners with lesmok, greased and heavy. (Junker in Match #1 does not require a gunner on board)
3) All those captains and gunners gathered on single server at specific time.

Procedure
We are going to try and make it as less time-consuming as possible.
For this to happen we need to launch as less games as possible and therefore use pre-determined loadouts.
Commence your testing, record your results and send results back to thread with results for developers to read.
Thread for results will be created a few minutes before testing.
