attack distances

Post by carlinho »

this is no bug...but I noticed that although sometimes you give a unit a huge attack distance (like 55 for an archer)
it doesn't really work that way...and it fires only closer than that...
is there a way to make attack distances HUGE?

I would love my archers to throw volleys far, far away....

I think I mentioned this briefly when I reported it to you--my guess is that the velocity isn't enough to match the range, so you get a high attack angle but very little distance. Have you tried setting the velocity higher?

Yeah, increase the velocity or even decrease the inertia of the projectile to make it less heavy.
