HSample Posted June 13, 2003 Share Posted June 13, 2003 Sorry if this has been asked and answered before: When I give a troop unit or vehicle a movement order and require it to rotate a certain direction, the "rotate to" line appears purple. But sometimes, for some reason, it appears red. Can anyone tell me why it turns red? thanks :confused: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slappy Posted June 13, 2003 Share Posted June 13, 2003 Here is my theory, and what I've seen: When you give any vehicle a move order to terrain that it cannot move into (water, slope, woods, etc.), the line turns red to point this out. The same check happens for rotate and the same red line is shown. For rotate, this has no effect as the length of the line does not matter, only the direction. Try this with rotate. Pick a vehicle and ask it to rotate toward some woods. The line should be purple. Now place the line to rotate INSIDE the woods. The line will turn red. Note if you click in the woods, the line will 'stick' and turn back to purple. In short, it has no effect. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HSample Posted June 13, 2003 Author Share Posted June 13, 2003 That makes some sense. Thanks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
