jollyjack Posted February 23, 2020 Posted February 23, 2020 Been mission making ... Arras map: i noticed a lot of roads end up in forests, a river; seems a lot there is unfinished business ... ?
Chief_Mouser Posted February 23, 2020 Posted February 23, 2020 These aren't working roads, but rather those that are painted onto to the landscape tiles. I agree that they look a bit off, but having nothing at all in an area as populated as northern France would look worse.
jollyjack Posted February 24, 2020 Author Posted February 24, 2020 (edited) Well, dunno if you ever drive through France, but a lot of roads look quite unfinished in real life. But let's face it: Wallonie is worse. Been trying to get a German truck convoy WP-moving, but they move on grassland mostly besides the roads .... are there 'proper' roads to select especially for that?

JG1_Butzzell Posted February 26, 2020 Posted February 26, 2020 S! There are proper roads. They are solid gray on the map. When you use way points be sure to select a proper speed. Default is 100 Kph. Place way points on the road. Target link each member of convoy to leader. Command formation "On road convoy" to leader. Then start the convoy with a timer to the first way point. You can start/stop convoys at intersections such as waiting for trains to go by.
jollyjack Posted February 28, 2020 Author Posted February 28, 2020 (edited) LoL, only the French drive 100 Km/h on these kind of narrow Chemin Departemental roads, and in Arras they seem to have a cobble stoned surface even. All other humans won't exceed 70 .... the Frenchies still give you quite some angry looks when yo do dare even 80. PS, the 'on road convoy' marker is what i now set right; eureka: it works. Got to get in to this stopping a t a railway crossing business now ... Got them river ships convoyed, set them wider apart, but even the smaller river-ships hit the river banks after a short while, stuck. Only the leader carries on as planned. But the on board FLAK gunners shoot even off the stuck boats. Noticed that on German ships they wear WW1 British helmets. Must be some bug .... PS i added this mission for those interested here, it was started by Motherbrain and i added stuff to it: https://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/59230-bristol-bombing-mission/ Edited March 1, 2020 by jollyjack added
