I have created a simple pillbox model, for use as observation outpost "coastal gun":



This is one of the simplest German types, commonly found along the coasts of my country, but I can also model one or more of the types most commonly used by the British. See the following links for reference:
http://www.pillbox-study-group.org.u...es-of-pillbox/
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Britis...f_World_War_II

Each of them will feature:
  • collision model/spheres and damage box(es), in case TDW manages making land units to be attacked by the AI; @ TDW: should I use the radio zone already in use with ships, if we want the unit to report enemies?
  • a configurable 'P' bone, for the linking of a lookout character (purely cosmetic);
  • a configurable 'O' bone, for the linking of a visual sensor; @ All: what range should I give it?
  • a configurable 'L' bone, for the linking of a searchlight (optional, for use around harbors and chockepoints).

Suggestions and info sources highly appreciated
