tanks and vehicle spacing
#1

So, searching, testing, but.... found nothing to make more spacing between tanks of a group, too near ..... has someone found a way to make more wide spacing beetween tanks or vehicles of a same group ?

You could add bicycles...

It would work, honest.

a normal group of four tanks seems to move from 'in-line' when on roads to 'diamond' formation when going across country

I have tried groups of 15 tanks but they only went in-line

of course it was always the case that a vehicle column uses more computer resources than the same vehicles each in their own individual waypoints...but then they will be harder to get to move a together and look like a column...because of their differing speeds etc.

so....if we make up these extra long columns of vehicles they will obviously affect the fps a bit...i doubt if the longer trains would have so much effect though

just travelling along isn't a problem...but when they meet a road block and start shifting and backing..then they consume the fps

If you open technics.ini and look at a certain tank type you'll get the hint how to change distance. For tanks though, if set that distance to say 25 meter then they'll remain inline formation instead going into combat formation close to eenemy. Didn't test really precise but if distance set to 20m they'll go into combat frmation. Typical default distance is maybe 12-15meter so there's no big gain by this going from 15m to 20m, hardly noticeable.

lowfighter, If you know how to get technics.ini to be loaded by the engine - let me know.
