Crossing a Bridge

[Spartan7]

Playing the scenario "Sharon's Quagmire" in v2.30.
All of the Israeli reinforcements arrive on the east bank of the Suez Canal very near two full hex heavy pontoon bridges. When I attempt to move even a 1 SP armored unit (much less a 3 SP unit) onto the bridge to cross to the west side (where all the action is) I get a message that says "Unit may not enter terrain" or something to that effect. As a result none of the reinforcements can be used. Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug of some kind?

Thanks

I will have to check the files when I get home from holidays.

May be a bug.

In the meantime, can you post a screenshot of the location. Thank you.

I'm just wondering if the bridge crossing problem ever got fixed? Is there a patch? I just got the Middle east game and several scenarios now, no pontoon bridge crossing. Bummer.

[Jason Petho]

Unfortunately, no, Berto passed away before being able to fix the issue.

In the meantime, I can replace the pontoons with bridges so you can at least cross.

Let me know which scenarios and I'll post a "fix"

[JimSafee]

"Sharon's Quagmire" is the big one. Sorry to hear about Berto.

[Jason Petho]

Thank you! I can post a fixed map this evening.

[JimSafee]

Than You! Please also include instructions on how to get the map into the game and how to take the old one out. I have no clue.

[JimSafee]

Just wondering if you posted the map as I don't see it here.

Here you go!

Unzip this into the "SCENARIOS" folder of your middle east install and replace the existing map

That should work!

[JimSafee]

It worked! Thank You!

We now have a development setup up and running again. There is now a fix available in the next official update for using Pontoon Bridges again.
