No, flame doesn't hurt anything inside any transports in EiR.

But it should.

Edit- Any open topped transport should have the infantry inside hurt by flames.

I think it should vary.  The units inside Roo's should be hurt by flames but in other transports I think it's ok for them to be immune to flames because of how easily the transports die.  Roo's are just tougher than the average BC or IHT.

i disagree, I think all units with open tops should be vulnerable to flames.  Including IHT's and Brens and Roos...

personally i think all units inside open topped halftracks should be damaged by flames, but maybe not as much as in VCoH, due to the massive modifiers (something like 2x accuracy and 1.5x damage).  Lower the modifiers so there is still a major accuracy bonus, but no damage bonus, this way units inside transports aren't immediately instakilled when flamed, but take about 7 seconds to die.

Flames damaging units inside open-tops was removed due to retarded bugs.

If you want to lose 2 vet 3 assault grens aboard your IHT from 2 RR shots(IHT surviving) - sure, let's implement flame damage again.

While I understand that game play > realism; if you were sitting in a half track and somebody shot an RR at your vehicle, there's a good chance you are going to get hurt or die.
I think the vehicle should provide heavy cover ,not invincibility.

It is indeed realistic - but I do believe you understand the problem with entire squads dropping dead out of a halftrack after they're hit once by a low damage, low splash AT source. Using IHTs/bren carriers would just become not worth it, due to the immense ammount of danger involved. We don't want those two units going extinct, do we?

vehicles should provide vCoH Trench cover where only snipers, flames and grenades could hurt units in the halftrack.

and yes.. I do want nades able to be thrown into HTs  Roll Eyes

The splash from nades can actually kill units in HTs in vcoh. Probably has been removed here

Yet again - it's a bug, hence why it's not implemented. If we give them trench cover, stuff like RRs, Shreks and tank guns will kill the units inside purely by splash.
