There seems to be two ranged circles when the rocket soldier enters the pillbox, yet only the inner ranged circle is valid for the rocket soldier (it cannot shoot as far as the outer range circle).

[PunkPun]

the second one is for anti-air

[AspectInteractive2]

Can it be a different colour? I can easily see people being confused by why there are two circles, and which one is for ground vs. which one is for air.

Which is fine. It's just another way to hint at people that rocket soldier has different ranges for ground and for air

what visually might work is to have a larger spacing between the dashes of the outer circle. to emphasize they are two different types of ranges.

I'm not sure how that would make it clearer than it currently is

This is a balance change. The anti-ground bunker suddenly becomes AA.

It is a balance change, but an incredibly insignificant one at that. A single rocket soldier does little damage to aircraft and a rocket pillbox is as expensive the overpowered AA gun. 800$ vs 800$ (600 + 300 - 100)

I've also seen it tested in quite a lot of older balance maps, its fairly weak without additional buffs

I would like to comment that this seems like a good idea. It makes the game more consistent logically and the AA unbalancing would be a minor effect if at all.

This looks good to me. In Discord you mentioned medics and mechanics acting from PBs was considered immersion breaking, but I'd be interested to see these have garrisoned 'attacks' too.

This needs at least 1 approving review by someone with write access.
