Insurgency

View Stats:
implement minimum Arming Distance for AT4 Launcher.
according to the US Army's M136 AT4 manual user, the minimum arming distance of the rocket is 10 meters (33 feet)

this feature would be usefull to avoid lethal self-kill at too close range.

RPG-7V2s have arming distances as well. I hope both get implemented, they shouldn't be used for cheap suicide kills or make do as instant C4s. That's a waste of a team's resources.

I agree
People do suicides to kill one or two enemies close by
While it's funny, I feel it's a waste of the teams rockets.

This is a good idea just for the sake of realism. Sadly NWI left that path for Insurgency months ago. Maybe in Sandstorm, if we're lucky.

I hope so.
The grenade launchers have it, why not the big boom sticks.

I obviously agree 100%. I wish they'd add it to Insurgency. They could just use 10 meters for both, since the RPG-7 arms at around 11 meters. the Russian rounds use the G force of main rocket motor ignition, along with a 4.92 second pyrotechnic delay fuse (which explodes the round at approximately 992 meters) to "arm" the piezoelectric fuse (sort of the way the G-Force patches used by Myth Busters worked). This happens at 11 meters on the RPG-7. Not all rockets have the safety though. Many copies of RPG rockets "omit" the safety. The Najef rocket is PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS in this regard (poor quality control and NO safeties).
