Topic: Shocktroopers and Teslatanks zapping over walls ?
Replies: 16

This is of course a bug and there should be a solution for it.
I think the best way would be if the troopers shoot on the target but the zapp will be stopped by the wall and damage it,
Then the balance complainers would be calmed down as the troopers are good wall shavers.

There is more behind it because the other player loose its 500$ + the builddingtime ;D

Also you can prevent a player to come back in game if he needs the 500$

I have to say the new unit does look nice. This would close this discussion once and for all. The name Iroquois doesn't tell me anything though, I'd stick to Huey, or Black Hawk or Cobra just for staying on the iconic side of things. This would open the way for a third soviet faction that utilizes ...

How about, you could put up to 5 troops in them, and send them to a team mate barracks, and instead of getting the 500 cash you would get the troops transferred to the team mate? So Soviets could transfer flame troops say. Sound like a good idea too me but why instead maybe it is better the receivi...

Looks to be some confusion as to what the Cobra PR is about: https://github.com/OpenRA/OpenRA/pull/12831 In essence it's a renamed Hind - not a Cobra/Hind hybrid. As per PR the changes to the unit .shp are negligible and that's with intent. Except for the name change and the fire animation you'd ba...

I don't think there is need to change hinds but if something is done to them, then please replace them with this unit. This Cobra-hind hybrid is a strange thing and should not be added I'm really impressed by the good work Mortecha is doing here. The cameo is looking well, the two bladed rotor fits ...

https://github.com/OpenRA/OpenRA/pull/12739 MiG Vision range: 13c, up from 12c Will make them a bit better to control hopefully. I think the problem with mig's is that they are hard to handle, you have to pay attention about them like no other unit ( except the demotruck :D ) Also you should use the...

This sounds like another troll poll for me or could someone explain me how you can balance the Longbow to compensate such a change? It would break the whole balance and like evreything must to be changed if you want to make this playable. Feel free and try to create a map with such changes. If it is...

You can see if a map is already on resource center under Similar maps
also you can search for the map name.
Best you write it next time in red and size 30 that already uploaded map are not allowed ;)

Sounds like a bad idea to me, this would be really annoying.

If you want to make players turn they'r radar off only in emergency cases, better let the spyplane-timer stop if radar turned off, allies already got that no Gps effect, that's enough imo

I would support at least a tickbox for TabEdit in the next release, and would treat it the way I treat Explored Map at the moment. Tickboxes are nice. There's always the concern about splitting the community though, imagine suddenly you have half the people preferring TabEdit and half preferring re...
