Mini hedges stop tanks
« on: August 06, 2009, 11:16:54 AM »
I thought I saw another thread on this, but I don't see it now. Are the little 2-foot-high hedges supposed to be impassable for vehicles, or is that a bug? I ran into one last night in a T-34/85 and got stopped cold. It's only the long hedge-like ones, the regular bushes don't do it.

I ran into one with a tiger and the tiger flipped on its roof. Supplies and troops were down at the spawn field so I had to ditch the tiger  :furious

So the little shrubs that I can step on with my bare feet stop the tanks doing 35mph, but the sappling trees and other objects 2x to 3x taller than the shrubs don't do a thing?

It's stupid as heck. Especially since you can't see them too well on the terrain amidst all the "other clutter" because they're shorter than anything else!

They were actually supposed to be large enough to hide your tank behind.  It will be fixed.
