NOT A BUG: Brigade slowing unit.

[unmerged(8000)]

Brigade slowing unit.

With my mod all brigades (no matter what is placed in a given brigade file) slow the unit with a brigade down to a movement speed of 1. Not sure whether anyone else has encountered this.

So you modded the game? This bug was fixed a looooooong time ago and I can't reproduce at all.

 

[unmerged(8000)]

Really? You could go check the slightly old version of my mod to see it in action. It is in my signature.

This is not a bug since it doesn't happen to unmodified games. You should have posted in the mod forum. Do your unit models all have speed_cap_eng, speed_cap_art, etc.? I think the fixed bug that Vulture referred to is that in 1.03 when those parameters were introduced one of the tank models was missed and so it had a speed of 1 when brigades were attached.

I would certainly like to know why i affects modded HOI... I see no link beween the files i have changed and land unit speed an brigades.

I haven't been able to download your mod to look at it; what files did you change? Did you use 1.03b files as your base before changing?

 

[Vulture]

If you used 1.03b, this bug shouldn't be there... Must be some change you did I'm afraid

Hey the link to my scenario should be downloadable now please do have a look if you got time to see problem.

OK, I looked at it and the problem is what I said earlier; all units that can have brigades attached need 'speed_cap' values for each brigade type or they default to '1'. These are the maximum speeds the unit can have with that brigade type attached.

If your modded files are based on old versions of the original files you really need to reapply your changes to the new versions every time a new patch comes out since you don't know what they may have changed.

Ok seems quite clear this ain't a bug

crap sorry I updated the version on my web site, it is one without any information in the gives file as i think you will have noticed. Sorry about that. I will try using files from my clean 1.03b HOI and see if that works, just can't see how eh..

Well Cheers you guys, Bart

 

[unmerged(8000)]

Sorry but it is still doing it, must be files aletered somwhere else.

 

[jdrou]

Have you looked at db\units\infantry.txt for example? In the 1.03b official files it has 4 lines that aren't in your infantry.txt.

Oh shit, now I see what you meant by speed_cap, I never saw these before... I was looking at the artillary etc... files themselves and replacing them. I will look at this. Thanks.

Cheers, Bart
