vehicle groups not following roads correctly?


GunnyCook

Recommended Posts

Having a slight issues with unit groups having minds of there own.

so im running groups of T-80u down a road, could be any road, so here is how it goes.

Start in multiplayer.

Join side and pick a spot. happens as commander or as pilot/driver.

Select group to move.

Add waypoint.

Set them off.

The group will sometimes split up and rejoin, sometimes the one that splits will cause others behind it to stop and wait but the lead units keep going.

Then they will run a staggered file of sorts down the road.(causing other issues if it meets an obstacle)

The pics show what happens

Any ideas please?

Thanks

I don't see any pics, but I am pretty sure that's related to suboptimal pathfinding and terrain management in general. Plus, pathfinding seems to be in an extremely bugged state right now (cf. recent threads in bug forums, e.g. for Combined Arms). Not much you can do about it until this issue is resolved or optimised; try finding workarounds if applicable.

Thanks, but screenshots are useless. Can you attach your track instead?

Men may keep a sort of level of good, but no man has ever been able to keep on one level of evil. That road goes down and down.

Same here.

I am creating a campaign. In the first mission there's a follow me vehicle to guide you to the hangar. It always worked perfectly, and since the last update the vehicle goes everywhere but through the taxiway. And it's just an straight line through a taxyway in an airfield, I mean, no obstacles and weird terrain...

What version are you running? as far as I remember this came with 2.5.6. It's been raised before so that's the best you can hope for - that it's acknowledged.

There's no notifications for things that will happen in terms of bug fixes, never has been, so it's easier on your mind to just go with the flow and take the waves.

i run the latest beta.

Well i kinda hope it does get fixed, i have spent a lot of money on this sim, started back when it was just blackshark. And as its a major part of why i bought the sim(mission building) i would really expect a group of vehicles to drive down a road correctly.

but i will "take the waves" for now

Thanks for the Heads up that the AI is broke. spent hours trying to get it to follow the road as I have before.. NEW ISSUE : I built a train to go from point a to point b Mission find train, blow up train. single player works great. Multiplayer not so much. No one can see the train but me .. the creator of the mission. Any ideas Tried mission using both stable and beta same issue. I thought maybe I had a train car that was out of the wwII resource pack. don't believe I have one but the other players have the wwII resource pack as well.
