Title: Some tweaking at Glarsmaps
Post by: glars on January 11, 2000, 09:49:00 PM
I've updated my beta terrain maps:

- minor repositionings on the arena map

- added a missing ack on the city map (thanks raxx)

- added the control tower on all the airfield maps (when I originally did the maps I didn't realise the tower played a strategic part so therefore required bombing  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Thanks, Glars.  I've added a link to your maps on our FAQ page.

Thanks glars for the great maps!

Something you could consider adding is the location of the map room on the field.  Us 47 pilots try to drop as close to the map room as possible, and I think it would benefit us to know the precise location of the map room on the fields to make more prescision drops.  Dropping close to the map room reduces the time it takes for the men to get there, thus greatly reducing their chances of getting strafed down by taxiing cons. (especially if they have to cross the runway to get there)

Other than that I love the maps, no more guesswork in bombing fields and resources, Thanks again!

Hey markvz I'm just trying to recreate some of the historical inaccuracies in para drops that seemed to be fairly common during WWII  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

I won't bother updating these maps but I'll include the maproom when the next terrain is released.
