MissionEditor - Altering the minimum distance in "Convoy"

DivingDuck · 11-15-06, 02:12 PM

Moin,

does anybody know how to alter the prescribed minimum distance between the vessels in convoys? I have to reduce the value from 300m to less than 20m to build my marina piece by piece.

Regards,
DD

Seems an odd way to do it DD
Cant you pack it into a dat file ? like the ports are

Why include it in a convoy in the first place?

And convoy vessels can perfectly well be closer than 300m to each others if you place them that close manually, can't they?

it´s not an issue of putting them into a real convoy. But creating a "convoy" makes it easier to align them in the MissionEditor. I´ve tried hard to get them in a row, but without success.

Well add them to the SCR DD
Its only the single missions and the RND that need to be 300m apart
With the SCR you can go as close as you like

Add them to you SCR and then make a single mission with your Uboat nearby so you can see what it looks like

Tell me what SCR and RND means, and I will do as adviced.

If I did so, parts of the marina would get "airborne" from time to time since the ratio height/width is pretty high already. Presently the marina is defined as Typ105 and part of the ENVIRONMENTAL folder. It is planned to give mission designers the possibility to build marinas for every minor port or as addition to the piers that are too high for boats like my little one.

That´s why I´d like to keep it "variable".
