For the terrain gurus
« on: September 02, 2026, 02:07:51 PM »
Follow Poot, he's in an M16 that falls in the earth, after about a minute of falling he is removed from film viewer.
But...he is still there in game, the base and town were flashing because of him, and GV dar was visible.  Subsequent film attempts by other players showed no enemy vehicle as well.
I quessed where he was with sound and fired an HE round where he actually happened to fall through the earth, no effect.

Looks like he rolled over in the pit and was upside-down "under" the terrain rolling around.  Game seems to do crazy stuff when you roll a vehicle.

I tried to duplicate it, but was unsuccessful. It is in the Town tile, so any changes will have to be approved by Hitech. If I was to guess, its the "Stuck on Tree" removal routine.

Not too concerned about falling through the earth, it happens.  I think it should either kill you or spawn you back at the spawn or something.  He was able to stay there invulnerable to anything, flashing the base forever while not showing on film viewer.
