Orchard blind hexes - 4/29/2020 1:19:03 PM

Status: offline 		Hi, am playing the CG 82nd at Amfreville, where there are plenty of in-season orchards, but they are not at all providing the blind hex behind them to fire from a higher elevation as they should. I believe I've come across this before, but this is the first time, that it's really obvious!

Also, is there no graphic associated with Flamethrower and DC attacks, like there is for other attacks? Is that what might be causing the FT crash bug?

This is a bit of a rough image but hopefully gets the point across:
- The GE MMG (circled red) on a level2 hex does have LOS per the green arrows which should clearly be blind hexes behind Orchards, given that it's at a higher elevation than they are; however,
- It does not have LOS (Red arrow) to one of the VP hexes which is clearly more than two hexes beyond any orchard hex that could cause a blind hex.

Status: offline 		Tks Paullus,

If I may ask - how is it that only one man, Peter is the programmer for this game? Is there not a way to get others involved? I mean this is, now a commercial product, and it seems like so much more business and a much larger customer base could be generated by fixing the present bugs and upgrading instead of waiting on just one guy who has an unrelated full-time job elsewhere. It just seems bizarre to myself and other fans who have commented alike (some, sadly not very politely).

I reply to your email.

It's been a long time since I've been doing any activity on ToTH.

Naturally, you have my permission to use everything I posted about ToTH.

Regards,

So what's going on with Peter, obviously as much as you can divulge? How can we pray for him?
