The River Crossing ... Demo .... v01
Contains :
1. Scenario - 6/42 - River Crossing DEMO - Play as Soviets.
2. River GunBoat model
3. River Crossing Map - basic map.
Designer Notes :
1. Water Level Mesh is doubled. I used the cut/paste feature in Scene editor to create another water level and turned the HasHeight feature to TRUE for the mesh (under the properties). When I pasted it, I needed to reposition it back to absolute 0 ... X and Z to 0 ... otherwise it will be off center and your terrain map will be off center. Also, I moved the Y to -.45 because since it "HasHeight" it will show the boat and infantry at a proper wading level. Still needs tweaking. I credit STRIDOR for giving me this idea ... such an overlooked feature that pays well !!
2. Terrain Map -- Tank Obstacle color -- The shore line has a continuous blocking terrain which prevents vehicles ( and boat) from passing back and forth from the river to land, and vise-versa. However, you can select the land for your boat as a destination and you will see the hourglass icon as it tries to calculate a path and then give up, cancelling the move. Also, you can click on the Tank Obstacle terrain and it WILL move the boat there .. but ... next phase your boat will be stuck !!! And stuck for good. So, the name TANK TRAP really means you can get trapped!
3. Scenario - 6/42 River Crossing DEMO - Just a test scenario ... not balanced well.
Thanks for trying!!
