    Pathfinding: me or TacAI

    in Combat Mission - Tips and Tricks

    Posted

    If you are having trouble manuevering a vehicle around vehicle impassable terrain i.e; woods and rough. Plot your directions unless you are that strapped for time. If the poor old TacAI does it itself it may do several moves and the turning and weaving of unnecessary moves will take up a lot of time.

    What helps to keep the TacAI from replotting moves due to slightly off direction, ( Maybe you placed a command line too close to woods or something ) is to go to ground level and take a look for yourself. Or just use the LOS tool and run the LOS line along your command line. If the LOS says woods/rough/other impassible terrain just slightly reposition your command line. Hope this helps. smile.gif

    American crews I fight against have a special knack for staying alive in their tanks when the turret/hull is hit and even still firing back at my tank with geat accuracy despite being penitrated several times. Butch: "Hows that 75 wound through your left side Joe?" Joe: "Merely a fleshwound."

    Prisoners

    Both CMBB & CMAK have no order to execute prisoners for their insubordination. This is easy to remedy with the "Area Target" command. The only problem is the assigned unit to do this will keep firing even after the enemy has fallen. I suppose you can take this as precaution to make sure the prisoners are DEAD. :D

    I once had a surrendered Russian squad with no intentions of following my orders of moving them safely from the main line of combat into a holding area. My response? Firing squad of course! Funny thing that I once had to do that same thing to another surrendered squad but right after my unit began firing they got the message and started their move order after 4 turns of waiting!
