Infantry two options?

Post by enric »

Hi Pip, I think I posted already this but no remember any answer.

It happens very often: the infantry has two options, move and suppress, the last disabled, but in fact this option should not exists.
Look at the images the first move has only one option: move, the second image shows the same infantry with two options.

It's a tough one. I am thinking I would leave it. Sometimes it is useful to know that a tile is suppressable.

Cheers

You're joking no? :lol: , really why this happens?, I've never seen in other units than infantry and always through several blocking tiles, and, I think, always in the last tile it can move...

I will check the scripting, but I think it is working as intended. I will verify with Iain.

Cheers

The option is there because you might be out of range but you could suppress it so its just to let you know. It can be changed if people don't like the way it works. I don't have a strong preference either way so would be happy for you not to get the suppression icon if a tile is out of LOS or out of range.

I think I missing something or I'm not explaining well.

I'm sending several exemples. The only annoying thing is that when trying to move on one of these tiles, even if the only option to be done on that tile is fast move, you must open de popup of selections and chose fast move. e.i you need two clicks to do an action that should be done with one.

When you point to move a unit to a tile, the options menu appears, then you may choose Fast or Hunt.., when you select another tile far away if Hunt is not possible here, the option did not appear disabled it simple do not appear.

And there are several cases that I can not find why the option disappear.

1. Two options available

2. As is not possible to suppress (no LOF) this option disappear.
