I was just doing some testing and noticed an alarming amount of missiles ricocheting off my targets when above the 120m minimum. Has anyone else experienced this? I was testing a VGL-1 with 2 ATM-9s when you shoot at 130 - 150m it was very apparent.

Just tested with C-LRM on the same mech and under 180m its doing it as well. This is with LOS of the target and with lock.

Range indicator is centre of mass and does not account for the target's actual hitbox.

That's not a valid excuse. The Clrms do not have a minimum, and I was firing at 130-180m with the ATMs which is 10-60m above the minimum range.

Min. range is not the distance between you and the target, it's the travel distance of the missile.
