Hi all,

I wonder if someone could tell me how to do trenches better in the editor? The AT guns etc seem to be sunk into the floor. I'm sure there's a simple trick to it but I can't find it.

Thanks

In the initialization line of the gun, copy and paste this:

this setpos [getPos this select 0, getPos this select 1, y];

y = height (in meters, can also be a decimal or negative number). I think 0.33 works for AT guns in firing positions, but you may need to play with it.

Thank you!!

OK I had a try and found that if you set a crewed gun, only the crew leader has his position raised. He then falls down and walks off in disgust. You need to set an empty gun (I found +0.6 metres worked for the PaK40) then add the crew using "this moveingunner pak1" etc.

But it all worked great and looks fantastic. I would never have worked this out on my own!

Thanks again.

Ah, yeah, sorry. I've only done it with an empty gun, never tried it with a crewed one.

could you also use the special 'in cargo' for the troops so they in 'in' the gun.

yes but then they sit at the back instead of as gunner. The AT guns also like a moveincommander.
