Orbital strike IMPACT circle missing - pvp issue.

Orbital strike used to draw a circle on the floor, giving opponents the chance to dodge the incoming strike by leaving the area, while this circle is still there and present for klingons its missing for federation players atm.

This means that you ain't seeing in pvp atm when your being target by an orbital strike by a federation player... now if orbital strike would be some average hit this wouldn't be much of a problem but equipping 3 purple very rare equipment diagnostic doffs + buffing equipment diagnostic + energy cell can easily turn an orbital strike into a one-shot alpha hit outa nowhere - with potential to kill a bunch of people same time.

The impact circle needs to return.

    Seems they removed or bugged the circle out for feds because on kdf side the circle is there

    Federation Side Toon Orb strike prepare (No circle :/ big issue In pvp)

    Klingon Side Toon Orb Strike prepare (circle there as is should be)

    Orbital Strike used to have a impact circle on the ground when you are about to fire it, some how in the release of LOR this circle was removed for fed side, on kdf side this circle is still there, this is a huge issue in ground pvp as now we cannot see when a fully buffed engineer is about to fire his Orbital Strike and those shots can be 1 shots if you buff it right, so please look into this for us ground pvpers

    Here is a post on the Star trek online Forums Showing what circle I am refering to

    It's a bug, but one I'm happy to keep. Since in most cases, the 'target' side can't see it too. Now, if they can inflict the same 'feature' on my quantum mortars...
