Testing the Infantry

[No_85_Gramps]

I have a mission where paratroops are dropped near a couple of bridges, so I got to thinking it would be nice to have them move on the bridges once they safely landed. Time to try out the infantry in the mission. Obviously they are not ready for prime time but the video does show some promising moments, and a few not so promising. Enjoy.

Very interesting, love the bellyflop off the bridge at the end, too.  ?

Ok, so Rule #1.  Don’t use the troops to take a bridge.  Right.  Got it!

Hold until relieved. Hold until.....glubglubglub!

Incredible shooting skills are on offer here! Good to know that there are such aces in the infantry too.

Not a lot really. Mission already existed, I just went in and added the infantry to spawn in when the mission started. Ran the mission and clicked spectate, used F5 to move to the infantry and hit the in-game record button. During playback I recorded it using OBS, which took some trial and error, verified it looked OK, and then uploaded to YouTube. As for the infantry unit itself, I used three waypoints, all set to medium priority, and speed of 3.

85 thanks, 

looks easy like this ...but requires deeper knowledge than I can display,  I need to return to basics  !

The animation is so much better than I expected. It has potential I think. Hoping the powers that be see it and give the okay for further development at some point.
