Thread: Target is out of range

Is anybody else noticing this A LOT recently?


I can stand at 33m, try to throw an Area C on my non-moving target and get the error that the target is out of range, repeatedly. I can back up to 45m and throw the stim with no problems. This happened rarely up until about 2 or 3 days ago and now it seems to happen every 3 or 4 heals. I'm not sure if something has changed recently, but if so this needs to be looked at because it is causing me a lot of problems.


Also, does anybody know if the changes to the grenade animation/delay will also reduce the delay after throwing our poisons/diseases/heals?

I've noticed it a couple of times. Not so much when I'm stationary though. Usually I get this message when myself and the person I am trying to heal are both running in the same direction. Not sure if this is something that popped up just recently though as I'm new to the profession; However, I have noticed that even with Expert Healing Speed when in battle I can throw stims like no tomorrow, but I'f I'm healing other players engaged in combat I constantly get the "You must wait to do that" message...So I wait...click... then the same message. This can happen up to four times until I can throw again.



I share your pain man.

I was 20m from a target, trying to heal while standing still and it wouldn't go. I moved to 18m, same thing. 15m, same thing. I stood still, killed a player, then I was able to heal. My target didn't move the entire time...

you sure you have them in inventory? also if it is around the 8m mark it might select a regular stim then when it goes to heal they go out of range?

Had that bug too. Keep spamming and move around a little usually gets it off. I love the out of range you get in a laggy area tossing at a forcerunning jedi. You can be right on top of them and get the message then see them warp 50m ahead of you....lol

Lag has alot too do with it, especially when there are other people fighting. The server has to regester everyones next combat move, healing move, and movement around the city/town/area.
