NO. BUT.. LOCALLY when I let go of the LOS thread (mouse up).. It STOPS moving 
the end point but leaves the thread and the range in place... was wondering 
if ONLY at this point the positions could be sent across the server and to 
the log file, as well as at this point send the TO FROM and RANGE message?
If this is possible, then the check is only sent ONCE! (on mouse up) this does 
NOT prevent possible cheating by checking range on multiple units or 
whatever, BUT it does give a VERY nice and intuitive manner for marking 
shooter and target. Just a thought. hope this is clear.
