Dr Giggles Posted March 12, 2003 Share Posted March 12, 2003 Hello, Enjoying creating maps using the Scenario Editor. I would like to request three additional tiles for small, medium & large shell craters. I know that I can create a QB map in the Scenario Editor I can get a heavy damage map with craters on it. However, it would be nice to be able to place different sized craters in the desired places. For instance I could simulate a post mortar attack by placing many small craters around the rubble of a house. Or how about placing several large craters around a damaged factory simulating a post aircraft bombardment. The list of scenario's is endless and I think it would increase immersion in the game. I would enjoy reading other members comments on this subject. Regards, Dr. Giggles 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rune Posted March 12, 2003 Share Posted March 12, 2003 As a scenario designer, you can place craters anywhere you like, and there are different sizes. I forget the hot key to turn them on, then alt and 1-5 to get different size craters. Rune 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Giggles Posted March 12, 2003 Author Share Posted March 12, 2003 Hello, Interesting, I am going to look into your suggestion later in the day. Can the craters be placed on different tiles, such as hay, woods, road etc. or are they all the same background tiles ? Thanks Originally posted by rune: As a scenario designer, you can place craters anywhere you like, and there are different sizes.

WWB Posted March 12, 2003 Share Posted March 12, 2003 Can be placed everywhere. Look at the top of the screen when you are in the 3d map mode. It gives instructions. WWB 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Giggles Posted March 12, 2003 Author Share Posted March 12, 2003 Perhaps, I did not explain myself clearly. What I mean is does the crater tile come with a default background tile or does the crater just embedd itself to the tile already on the map ? Originally posted by wwb_99: Can be placed everywhere.

xerxes Posted March 12, 2003 Share Posted March 12, 2003 It's not a tile. You place craters individually wherever you want them. Well, not really, you can't put them underwater. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Giggles Posted March 13, 2003 Author Share Posted March 13, 2003 Hello Fellows, Found it in the manual, the command is Alt-1 to Alt-4 and Alt-5 turns it off. However, the manual states Alt-5 should create the largest crater, is this a typo in the manual ? Thanks 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xavier Posted March 19, 2003 Share Posted March 19, 2003 I spent some time to find how to create craters. On my computer command is: 1/ Alt + shift + n ( with n = 1 to 4) 2/ left click with the mouse on the map 3/ same as 1/ to exit crater mode. May be the shift key is just necessary for non US keyboard... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
