mgaffn1 -> creating immobile units in AT Gold (5/29/2012 6:26:45 PM)

Anyone here know how to create immobile units (flak towers, shore gun emplacements) that actually STAY IMMOBILE when the AI plays them?

I created several SFTypes with their own "immobile" group, that corresponded in the land type screen. I even increased the units weight to 999, just to make it impossible to transfer.

When I played it myself, it worked perfect: the units were unable to move - the movement button was greyed out. When I changed regimes, and let the AI play them, the AI moved these units all over the place - short distances, far distances, rough terrain, on roads, nothing seemed to matter. Makes me wonder if there is some sort of "cheat" the AI gets for movement. I scrolled through the settings screen under AI & didn't see any settings that would effect this...

any ideas?

You donīt make units impossible to transfer by increasing they weight. They still can be moved by LANDCAP or SEACAP. They simply cannot be mobilized.

I still think it's a nice addition, build immobile Flaktowers or shore guns. Well you can already actually by building a bunker and placing stuff in it, but still... nice idea.

How would you create land- and sea-mines?

Look at the scen GPW. Basically u set auto destroy on attack/defend.

Attack of the three letter acronyms.

OK, how about electric fences, as used by the French in Algeria?

No idea how you'd do an electric fence. If you wanted to just slow down movement you could make a land type called fence that would slow units down but not sure if that would work right or do what you wanted.

That's actually a pretty good idea. Thanks.

I did this by making a garrison SFT unit. You will have to make a new movegrp though and also make sure for each terrain type you make the movement cost "999". this will prevent the unit from moving. My mistake was when i added mortars and machineguns into the unit, then it could move. So don't add any other items to your unit.

OK

Cheers!
