GE 4.xx clients send incorrect <lookatRange> values when terrain height is above sea level #183

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Steps to reproduce: 

1)  Open GE and type in zip 80203, fly to Denver with terrain NOT checked

2) Open Barry Hunter's View Based Network Link Echo
http://www.nearby.org.uk/google/setupEcho.kml.pl double click and you will
see an eye alt of 1km and  <lookatRange>=1000.  This is correct.

3) Check terrain, click network link twice.  Eye alt will be 2.62 km (1617m
terrain height + 1000m range).  The <lookatRange> value now equals 2617. 
This is the bug, range should still be 1000m

Application discovered in: All clients since 3.xx

Workarounds: None
