Guest claespiper Posted February 8, 2001 Share Posted February 8, 2001 I discovered the hard way, in a TCP/IP game yesterday, that squads will not move straight from one building to another, if the buildings are adjancent to each other. The squad will move out from the first house in to open ground and then move in to the next house. I find this strange and would label it a bug. It is easy to try: Create three large houses next to each other (in a row) and order a squad in the first house to move straight to the third house. The squad will move out in to the open twice to reach the third house. My whole platoon got mowed down by two German HMG's while trying to move this way... (I was going to flank them really bad otherwise *hehe*) Regards Claes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Germanboy Posted February 8, 2001 Share Posted February 8, 2001 Not a bug - an intentional restriction. Large buildings have firewalls in between them in Europe, so moving is not that easy, you need a good amount of explosives to do it. Mouseholing is not simulated. ------------------ Andreas Der Kessel Home of „Die Sturmgruppe“; Scenario Design Group for Combat Mission. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest claespiper Posted February 8, 2001 Share Posted February 8, 2001 Ok, I see. Well I learned that the hard way then *hehe* Regards Claes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mikey D Posted February 8, 2001 Share Posted February 8, 2001 It is painful though to craftily route your troops through a line of rowhouses to flank a maurading Panther only to see them repeatedly scamper from the buildings into the line of fire!
