Bug: Base hovering above unit when placed on an obstacle.

Post by Mord »

I checked this with a few different units on Middle Eastern and North European Custom Battle maps and I get the same results. Anybody else seeing this?

I don't have anything installed in my main game folder. I even verified my Steam files to overwrite my edited mapview text file (just to be thorough) and I am still seeing it.

This isn't actually a bug. Bear in mind that you are not supposed to be looking at the game from this angle. The indicators are raised up above terrain objects that might otherwise conceal them.

In the case of the Middle Eastern village it might be possible to tweak it to be a bit lower - I will look at that.

Gotchya. I suspected that after I posted. I noticed it was happening in forests too.

I have seen this, but I'm on Linux so I assumed that Wine's rendering was at fault. Good to know that it is not.
