Euri Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 (edited) I have a theory that AI is somehow "cheating" on artillery effectiveness. There are some missions where the AI's is extremelly deadly on my positions which are out of LOS from the enemy. Good examples are the last mission of the 1st Russian Campaing and the mission before the last one of the second Russian Campaign. Using the campaign decompiler I have noticed that all the emeny has is a single raven drone which cannot possible cover sufficient areas large maps as those. Nonetheless, the AI is able to bring artillery fire quicly and accurately on my positions over large portions of map with clearly no line of site at all. It is as if the Raven can see all battlefield at the same time Any other theories? Edited October 15, 2017 by Euri 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt.Squarehead Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 (edited) Cunning scripting perhaps? If you could point me towards decompiled copies of the scenarios I'd be glad to take a look.

Euri Posted October 15, 2017 Author Share Posted October 15, 2017 try and play as Russian the last mission from Crossing the Dnieper and the penultimate one of the Russian campaign included in the last patch. Open them in the editor and see that blue has just one raven. This does not justify the amount of artillery coming down on you. You have the campaign de-compiler, dont you? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not have a theory to offer that explains what you are seeing - others have put forward a few possible ones. But I will say categorically the AI is not cheating. Not with artillery and not with anything else. Period full stop. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a bit crap at that sort of thing.....I couldn't get the map convertor to work either (if someone fancied converting the CM:SF Aleppo Airport map to CM:A it would make my day). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please feel free to share you theories, that is what the forum is about. :-) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My theory is the AI kicked your ass with artillery. You should get back in there and cause the AI some pain. Good luck. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
