With over 2000 hours in Arma 3 on various mods I do have a good understanding of the engine. Had a few battles today with the Police and something was strange, how do Police know where you are? Say I have not fired a single shot and I am in a bush with ghillie well out of view even behind a hill... but then bullets come over my head, at my exact location. Do name signs show at certain distances? the map can show player locations? or do Police have ESP?
I think it might be the map, but how does the map ping a player location? based on what? does the player have to see them first?
