I did some testing on a server at long range to get a good personal feel of the limitation.<br /><br />http://rust.unidoom.org/Odamex_CTF_20130209_002637.bmp<br /><br />My target was against the wall behind the ssg. I was able to find the maximum range before shots didn&#039;t register.<br /><br />http://rust.unidoom.org/Odamex_CTF_20130209_002629.bmp<br /><br />This is roughly the maximum range where I am still able to hit the opponent with the shotguns and chaingun.<br /><br />If there is a flag runner that far away from me to begin with, I would qualify as a failed defender.
