Title: How to destroy a bridge - the halftrack way
Post by: Shadrach on July 07, 2012, 11:41:10 AM
Joking title aside, this is actually a serious problem with AI pathfinding.

After playing Krasnaya Polyana a couple time, I've had a several chances to observe German halftracks trying to cross the bridges and getting stuck at the entry, constantly ramming into the bridge until it collapses:

This is without the Soviets firing anything at the bridge.

Considering how important the bridges are to the German advance in this campaign, this is a major problem for the Germans, they have tons of halftracks that need crossing points of the river.

Not that this is anything new, it's been this way since AP:K I believe, but I hope this is something Graviteam can fix, either making the bridges stand up to vehicles crashing into them or improving AI pathfinding.
