The contact above is a thermal contact, showing five strength-20 thermal contacts. You can only target active contacts, which is why they are not showing up as potential targets. Time for a dumb question
. Have you switched your active sensors on?

Okay, I understand now. What happened was that I activated all of the active sensors on the orbital forts, but only activated the sensors on one ground base, one that had already been detected, so that hopefully the other bases would remain undetected.
What I didn't realize, until I read your post, was that I screwed up. The orbital forts all have a smaller, less capable sensor, due to space constraints. This sensor is only capable of detecting missiles out to 100,000 km's. The single PDC's sensors should have been enough, but unfortunately, I forgot that the base had been damaged in the first war. It lost its primary sensor array, which was never replaced. Thus, the incoming missiles are only being detected on the thermal planetary arrays.
I feel much better now that I understand the situation. Of course, this brings up another question. Is there some way to repair/upgrade PDC's that I'm not aware of?
