Moving Convoy Group Mod Request
#1

Hello !

Who already tried to make maps with zutii already notice the dificult to make a big convoy to move togheter for a log distance.
Iff you whant (Expample): 8 Tanks + 8 artillery + 4 trucks + 1 radio truck + 2 fuel truck + 1 ambulance truck + 1 AAA in front of convoy + 1 AAA in the midle and 1 behind it will be a noghtmare.
You will need to make all them stop time to time to wait the sloewrs and them depart all togheter again, you will need to control waypoints for each 4 units and Artillery and each aaa separately.
You canot change ground units velocity like u can with ships.
The idea is:
1) Be able to change the ground units velocity.
2) Have pre programed Atack, Transport, Mixed convoys (Large, Medium and Smal) with diferent distribution of tank, artillery and AAA ready to be used as a single object, like we can choose from 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 tanks.

I am going to use 800 x 800 miles map in a new server and i am planning to make units go acros the maps ... With the actual capability it wiil be a nightmare.

Thats is the idea, it shoul be not be that hard, is it ?

Make your waypoints for your groups (don't worry about speed yet).
Now, exit the game and open the .mis file in a text editor.

Find the entries for the "Chief" objects you're working with.
Change them all to match speed with the slowest vehicle. **** DO NOT CHANGE THE WAYPOINTS or you run the risk of collisions.

That should solve your problem.

S!
