OpenRA

So I was just testing out a potential new map, and during the game I sent a naval transport to go and make its way around an island. To my curiousity it started moving in the wrong direction where I was sure the transport would not be able to pass... and then THIS HAPPENED:

I don't know if this is an unintentional side effect of the transports being able to move a bit further onto the shore, or if it is supposed to be this way, but I think it's awesome so please keep it.

Maybe it's widely known (if so, sorry for this topic) but I've never seen anyone use this before, and imo it can really add a new dimension when it comes to map design. Up untill now I often placed mudbridges to the side of my maps because I didn't want to create a body of water where ships wouldn't be able to go to, but that's all going to change now!

Yes, this is a side effect of this PR. Which allowed RA Transports to go more into shore to allow easier loading and unloading.

Dunno, I can see it just fine? Anyway it's a picture of the naval transport moving over a mudbridge.

Edit: It just disappeared for me as well, posted a different link

I thought all naval units are able to move over mudbridge.

lol it kind of makes sense for the transport but i think it would be a bit absurd to see huge naval vessels traversing such shallow water

sure thing ...
