Herbal Influence 10 Posted March 27, 2012 This is new since 1.60 probably. Funny: As soon as I - as comander - get closer to them, like in view distance, they start climbing. Before they remain at foot of hill making a dancing like movement, turning continiously left and right like children from a childrens home ('hospitalism'). Any hints for me ? I like Moutain Warfare a lot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Beagle 684 Posted March 27, 2012 Ooops ... what you mean?He means that official all aroudn the word mountain warfare tactics is NOT to use heavy vehicles in montainous areas because especially modern tanks are too heavy depite having lots of nominal power...te weight of 60 tons eats that off. MOntain warfare = Light units, light infantry, light vehicles, helicopters and mules. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dm 9 Posted March 28, 2012 I got bored of seeing this thread pop up over and over, so I did a little analysis of Takistan: Click for fullsize Considering M1 Abrams as default vehicle: Everywhere that is white or blue is fairly flat and can be traversed at full speed. Anywhere that is light green can be traversed at a maximum of 27 km/h, you get gradually slower and slower untill you reach the orangey-brown, where you do a maximum of ~7 km/h. Anything in red is completely impassable to tracked (and most wheeled) vehicles. Note the amount of red which borders the blue sections, especially around the center of the map. This does not consider the physical quality of the terrain surfact (in real life I would assume that ~80% of that map would be loose shale/rock and too soft to drive up. As for the "bug", I imagine that the path planning is not fully prioritised when the group leader is far away from the vehicles. Its understandable that the AI wouldn't want to drive up somewhere they technically shouldn't be... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hellfire257 3 Posted March 28, 2012 Definitely MS Paint. Without a doubt! :D I'm guessing the topology command was used somewhere along the line. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
