Maximum range of sight

[Oraien]

Hello,
I was wondering if there is a way how to increase maximum range of sight from 1800 to higher amount. There are serval units and buildings that have more (f.e. Dalaran tower - 1900) although I couldn't find where.

I don't know about the Dalaran Tower but 1800 is hardcoded to be maximum.
You can use a work around by triggering visibility on a periodic basis.
Every x second you destroy the visibility modifier and adding a new instantly.

Shift-Enter the field instead of Enter/Double Click. This allows you to enter any value.

Solu9 is right, rulerofireon99 is wrong. 1800 is the hardcoded limit.

Indeed, however it needs to be quicker than 1 seconds in some cases that the unit travels very fast (700+) some parts of terrain won't get revealed. This is a very small problem and only happens with long range knockbacks or movement systems, however it best be fully functional.

The only higher sight range is afaik used in Human campaign in WCIII: TFT, where you repair observatories, but that's actually not sight range, but a visibility modifier add via triggers.

Thanks for the feedback!
It's not a mobile unit, it's a Lighthouse so there won't be any trouble with speed of the visibility modifiers but thank you for the help!

The normal sight range is delayed/gradually, too. In triggers you could actually interpolate the track for fast missiles.

edit: And I just transitioned to 3k posts
