Any chance we can get it back to allowing us to use disconnected sectors? As in ones not connected to a spawn by other sectors?
This would greatly open up what we can do with maps, currently its a lot of the same ol' same ol', even on new maps due to the games all playing so similarly.
That and we could bring back such classics as French Countryside.

On german side, the part of the hard forrest doesnt get capped, or its me who didnt run to that part because i belived it was disconnected because because it doesn't look walkable... Sigh its just horrible to explain so nvm..

there is a difference between sectors having null territory next to them and sectors being completely surrounded by null sectors.

Wish we could still do that, it made games much more fun and realistic.

You just paint a dot of another sector touching the intended sector and paint it impassable so people cant "remote cap"

i tried something like that with ardenne valley and it would have resulted in having a big line of move block trough the entire map. the end result was fail.

We can probably bring back the code some day but that's SCAR and Eirrmod isn't doing any SCAR at the moment. All his energy is being devoted towards progress on the warmap.

Not to mention that its quite a tricky piece of work - if things dont link back to the spawn, backcapping wont work. Sorry guys, this wont be addressed / looked at until after version 1

Shit I'm pretty sure you could offer the guy a cup of coffee and he'd try to kill you with the mug if you forgot sugar.
That's like offering Beer to fuck the fat chick. It will work for a while, but it's not gonna last. Not only that, but there is zero motivation for the Fat chick to loose weight.
Why don't you collect up your love beads and potpourri and find something constructive to do.

Awww, ok =)
Just it allows us to really open up the mapmacking more, adding game modes and such through map design.

Well, thats something Id like to do too - so, during 0900 / 1000 we'll really sink our teeth into game-modes and see what we can do eh?

Yay! Objective based always made for the most intense fights, and really cool uses for airdropped troops.

Your right, aidropped troops are just a better form of infintry at the moment. That wasn't the purpase of them. Their purpase was to drop in to a desired zone to outwit and outrun the german troops to a given objective and hold it untill re-enforcments of a main core. By 'balancing' airbone with buffs that make them a backbone unit we are disreguading their priority use.
