Kapitein KAB Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 I am just starting playing again after 6 months or so. i remember there was this command for vehicles that resulted in a vehicle going somewhere and staying ther, but made it to back down (the slope) should superior firepower arrive in front of it. Which one was it again? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Tondu Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 That's "Shoot & Scoot", I believe. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kapitein KAB Posted June 27, 2004 Author Share Posted June 27, 2004 no it isn't. The shoot and scoot order is kinda dangerous, caus it's not easy to determine the top of the slope you want to fire from. There is a command that allows you to let the vehicle the minute it's weapon can be fired on enemy, and it also retires when it believes it can't win a gun battle 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zukkov Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 as far as i know there is no such command. if you give it a hunt command it will stop when it engages an enemy. if the tac ai determines it is a superior tank, most of the time it will reverse away... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ant Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 No such command AFAIK. Are you sure you aren't thinking of 'Hull down'? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kapitein KAB Posted June 27, 2004 Author Share Posted June 27, 2004 I don't remember, but I do remember that there is a movement command that gives ur AFV/TD a mindset that he remembers when he reaches his destination. I used the command for putting my vehicles on slopes; if a after a few turns some big tanks showed up, it would back down the slope to conceil itself. I could do a trial and error of course, the irony is that i remember finding this tactic somewhere on the forum but i can't find the post 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brent Pollock Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 Sounds more like TacAI to me, too...the only option I can think of is "E" (Move to Contact), which seems to make things like ACs hyper-alert and give them the tendency to quickly poop smoke and reverse...but that could also simply be TacAI. Maybe giving them a long-ranged Move to Contact or Hunt command, followed by a reverse command is what you're thinking of...could it be they remember the Reverse order, even if they haven't hit the end of the first order? I know Move to Contact and Hide is a recommended combination for infantry, if you want them to hit the dirt as soon as they encounter trouble. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalem Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 I find that my tanks will cower and back up whenever superior enemy armor is spotted, without my intervention. To the extreme of refusing to fire, even with good flank shots. -dale 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bastables Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 I think you're talking about the combined use of Hunt and reverse commands. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
