Resupply Convoy On The Runway

the resupply convoy comes across the end of the runway, and if you time it just right you can takeoff into them and crash.

We obviously can't do anything about this without know which terrain and which field.

This happens on every  terrain and I witnessed it countless  fields of different sizes. Along with Tug boats driving over land, Train engines & rest of trains seperating from each other while driving over invisible bridges or the truck convoys driving over a invisible bridge on every vehicle field, then leaving road and hurrying silly across the field itself (through the patch of wood near maproom), knocking aside everything in their path...

Since the last major terrain update (last april I think), the resupply trains/convoys/boats generally act in that very strange manner.

Yes sir sudz, this has been wide spread since 2.10.  I can't claim every map, but I've observed odd things by the convoys on a number of them.  In the case of AHTA06, the convoys cross the runway about 30 feet AGL at A1, and seem to have the same delivery path across the runways on many other fields.

Far too many, if not most, people on this Board post just to say something opposed to posting when they have something to say.

Another example of a convoy problem is P86 on Compello. The convoy leaves land and goes out into the water.

It's almost like convoys are now set to go to the center of the terrain grid. Whereas they use to stop at the edge of the grid.
Most of the people you meet in life are like slinkies. Pretty much useless, but still bring a smile to your face when you push them down the stairs.

Seen that one too, on the map with the islands, Rooks, but not sure about what feild. I saw them tugging in the water.
Also I have a picture of a supply boat on land if you want it.

I guess HTC employees don't play the game.  It happens everywhere on every map since the terrain change.
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.
