Hello guys,

I wanna ask you now about a nice idea. This thing also doesn´t work really in Tsk and in Tpr.
So maybe it´s time to change it

The problem:

In like all missions the attack of the AI´s is that much less effective, because when the starting point is to far away, they just arrive to the enemy in one BIG ROW. You know what I mean.
So its way easier to kill his whole army 1 by 1 troop.

When the AI would just make some breaks of "reordering/regrouping" it would be possible maybe, that the AI would just attack right grouped like a normal human player in AI. So not in one row, but nice splitted up into 3x4 xbows;4x5 axes.... So the attacks would be just nicer instead of this one big row.


Would be this possible to implement maybe (in later development)?

I think that has to do with mission scripting, doesn't it? The mission scripts order the troops to go from A to B. Maybe it'd be an idea to change that, but that would require changing all the scripts for the missions in all the campaigns.

That has nothing to do with mission scripting. That is a group pathfinding flaw. Would be nice to fix it, but without changing unit movement from tile-based to free (like in modern RTS) it won't work out. And changing that is a huge amount of work.
