[REPORTED]Ground Units Travel Speed

[nighthawk2174]

So something that's been impacting a few of the missions i've been making is the speed at which AI travels. Lets say I tell them to move at 25kts, they will only go 17 (at most) while if I take over I can get it up much faster to whatever the top speed of that vehicle so happens to be.

This impacts many (if not all) of my missions as well.

[BIGNEWY]

can you attach a track showing it, when I tested all seemed ok for me.

 

If it is an older mission try re-saving the mission also

Here you go, BN. Running Stable, no mods. All waypoint vehicle speeds set to 35 knots.

Thanks working on it now :thumbup:

Reported to the team for checking, thanks for the track.

Sweet, on my end this mission I made with the latest update as of the posting date hopefully this gets fixed in the next beta or two.

Hi all,

 

I have spoke to the team, off road speeds will depend on the surface they are travelling on, so even if you set top speed the terrain type may limit the speed, this will depend on the vehicle also, and the slowest unit in the group if mixed groups.

 

thanks

Is this terrain limit only for AI? In my track above, you can take control of the first tank and exceed 20 knots over the steep hill...

Not sure, I will check

 

edit: You are correct when you take control the speed limit no longer applies, I have asked the dev and I am waiting for a reply

 

thanks

Confirmed speed restricting is for AI only.

 

Thanks

[Livers]

Thanks.

So will this be changed? As if the vehicle can go faster under manual control I see no reason that it should be restricted under the AI.

I have a question.... groups will only go full speed if in trail formation, any other, they will limit them self to 20 knots.

 

Is that intended ?
