Only an issue in custom operations? My stock campaign doesnt seem to have these problems. BGs are confined to the 'right' side of the river when bridges are blown.


So these problems are only if you make a custom Operation using the editor?

Status: offline 		Unfortunately the situation stolidog describes is still a problem. Im seeing it in custom ops, the stock Eindhoven Sector op and the stock GC (shown below). Similarly, Allied BGs at Best are unable to move to Son after the Best bridge is blown.

Status: offline 		The other bridges that have "dual" entry/exit VLs (Heumen, Hatert, Blankenberg & Honinghutie) dont have the above problem.

I thought the problem might be traced to the "River Line" tile data for Best & Son in Campaign.txt/Bridges but the tile data checked out OK.

Not sure how much this matters... in Campaign.txt, the VL0 value for the Veghel bridge data is '7' when it should be '5'.

Status: offline 		It looks like the VL0 value is 5 for veghel, it appears the names of veghel and st odenrode are switched in the Campaign.txt file, assuming that the game is using the data based on the Map ID numbers, St Odenrode is Map 8, veghel is 11:

# VEGHEL
8,1,3,1,6000,2,7,-1,-1,1,1305,1306,1395,1396,1486,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,40,1305,3114,4113,6362,8081,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,

Status: offline 		Good catch.

Was thinking about why the "dual" exit VLs work on Heumen/Hatert/Blankenberg/Honinghutie but not Son or Best. Changing the Son & Best river line data to read from low->high values like the H,H,B&H maps didnt work. So the main difference is that the 4 'dual' VL maps with North-South river lines work but the 2 with East-West river lines dont. I switched the Son & Best map files with Heumen & Honinghutie, edited their .BTDs to approximate Son/Best, copy/pasted the corresponding bridge data in Campaign.txt, and bingo - the 'dual' VLs on the new north-south Son/Best maps worked like expected.

I can only assume so, this is a very serious problem affecting the core of the gameplay of LSA.
I noticed some of the issues but didn't know whether it was intended or not. Kudos to xe5 for the thorough work.

Someone may look at it in the months ahead.

This should be considered a show stopper as the bridges affect on movement and supply is essential to an Campaign or Operation....
