Question about pause commands

[Steel Rain]

Anyone know if you can place a pause command between say two hunts or two moves? I would like to order some armor to hunt -> pause 15sec -> hunt. Thanks in advance.

Nope. It was felt that putting a pause command between way points would be to much of a micromanagement technique.

There's workarounds, say on turn 1 plot the hunt path for your armour with a 30s delay initially. On turn 2 the armour will have advanced a little then you can give it another pause before it continues on the original path. One warning with giving pause orders for TDs, they won't fire outside of their firing arc while 'paused' even if being targetted.

A trick you can use is to give the first command, then give it a little string of

tiny move/reverse commands, then the next

hunt. The tank will go back and forth, in place, for a few seconds, then continue.

(Though I'm not sure if this will adversely

affect target acquisition while 'paused' in

this manner)

Does the "pause" command work for artillery spotters? In other words, can you ensure that the barrage is spread out over more turns by having your spotter pause for 30 sec of each turn?

[Chupacabra]

The pause command only affects movement orders, not firing orders. So giving a pause command to an artillery spotter would have no effect on the timing of his barrage.

Try moving the spotters target just a little bit, this usually gives you a delay of 15 to 30 secs.
