Usually, I can place the umbrella outside the weapon range of enemy anchor to take it out. But for some tiny planets, I am unable to do this. This lets me wonder. What's the shape of weapon range? I can see the weapon range and the radar range are circles under the ground. But what's its real shape in 3D space? I am not sure, but I think the shape of weapon range is not a cylinder. Is it a sphere? Or it is a cone, and the vertex of the cone is the center of the planet.
I think it's a capsule if I remember correctly. See also this post: https://forums.uberent.com/threads/circle-vision-vs-real-range-pelter-and-radar.57411/#post-892505
The range of radar is a capsule. And the shape is a fix distance to a line which goes from ground to the orbital layer. But I am not sure it is changed or not. The developers said they want to fix it.
Remember though the capsule is not relative to a flat surface, it is wrapped around a round planets surface - which has quite a dramatic curvature on small planets. *Attempts to conceptualize the curvature of space* *Head explodes*
