exteremely weird terrain bug

[JimmyD3]

If the map room itself is visible could an LVT get on top and let go?

Or goon like Wiley mentioned?

No, the Collision flag is not set, so you can not drive on it, you go through it.

Goon wouldn't work either, troops dropped in the air must land on the ground. They can run across the water at the port, but they have to land on the ground.

Then the CVs can't be taken... 

Is that confirmed?  The only reason I ask is, from a coding perspective taking a base would be completely different from respawning a CV.  When a CV respawns, it (likely) would check who owns the port it's tied to then spawn under the appropriate country.  "Taking" a CV by gooning a maproom that is in the middle of the ocean would not be going down the normal path for a CV changing hands.  If the troops did their normal thing, it might behave like a normal maproom and swap countries for the CV.  Or it might not.

Just noticed this

So that would seem to settle that.

In the past, I've seen a few near or on the beach at a port.

Not sure.

Step 1) Destroy all guns on the CV, CA and 4 DE's.
Step 2} Land C-47 on enemy CV and let troops out.

You now have your Orders.  Carry them out.  Good hunting.

Troops can walk across water, but they cannot be dropped directly in or on to water.

I'd imagine the maproom being discussed is too far away from land to test the capture theory.

This just might do it.    Gotta protect the troops long enough to get to that map room, tho'   I can see the CV auto guns popping off trying to hit troops, that may be out of range, and people wondering what it's shooting at.

I guess maybe I might be a little confused are these map rooms just floating randomly in the water or the located near the task Group

Placed by mapmakers where they hope no one will see (or check the map files to locate.) 

Maybe CeeVee found the first recorded one! I think 99.99% of us were unaware of this map-maker fact.

They are usually tucked away in the corner of the map where players dont go.

This wont work either, the map room needed to capture the "CV/BB" is the port map room.

[AKKuya]

Or the backdoor approach has been opened wide.

They have been there for years.  I never could get them to work.
