Hi,
Am i the only one who thinks that Crusaders should be able to move over water while in 'hover propulsion' mode? Just a thought. O=MM=C This post has been edited by MecanicalMan: 29 Apr 2010, 19:36 |

The team stated that this created a few bugs and so they removed it.

Can pass it off by saying the hover engines aren't effective on water because the aren't powerful enough.

Anything that makes a 60t hunk of material hover above solid ground tends to work over water too. Case in point: hovercraft.
As huhnu pointed out, a bug in the locomotor logic makes the dust trail effect visible once the tank reaches a certain speed, regardless of what surface it hovers on, so it'll look retarded if the effect appears over water surface. I could be wrong though. Another possible reason is simply balance. -------------------- [Sources] CARAT HD-1, Sony E445, Cowon S9 [Amplifiers] PA2V2, Corda XXS, Corda Arietta [Headphones] Audio Technica ATH-AD900, Beyer DT250-80, Head-Direct RE0, Soundmagic PL50, Koss PortaPro http://www.last.fm/user/warisz00r JOIN SWR FORUMS LAST.FM GROUP |

I don't think so, CWC has trails that work properly.
EDIT: Nvm, it's probably because you can't stop the crusader from transforming on water This post has been edited by Zeke: 1 May 2010, 6:08 -------------------- |

It can be fixed by replacing W3DTankDrawModule with W3DDrawModel. Problem is, you won't have thread marks, and you must manually add thread dust. On the other hand, you do can make wave effects when on water.
tl;dr, it can be fixed, but it ain't worth the effort. --------------------  |

The transforming is what couses issues as Zeke stated.
