Summary0016639: Displayed range for multitile building depends on tile
DescriptionIf I hold R to display the range of an enemy seaport, the displayed range depends on the tile I'm hovering over. For example, the range displayed from the top left tile extends one hex further north then the range displayed from the (central) bottom tile.

For 0.816:

* Changed the R key's range display to always go off the main tile of a multi-tile building, rather than the particular tile being mouseover'd.

Thanks :)

That's going to end with odd cases where you want to attack from the north. Your weapons have an extra range compared to those attacking from the south. The less long term troubling solution would be to calculate ranges with the source being the most advantageous hex.

This probably is also relevant to pollution generation from dumps and other asymmetrical multi-tile buildings.

Seaport attack range is calculated from the main tile, so that's the only range display that's correct. I don't have strong opinions about how the range is calculated, but the display must match the set of tiles I can obliterate with my futuristic war machines.
