Summary0002151: Build Distance Min Limit is too large
DescriptionBuilddistance is set to 128 min:
" buildDistance = std::max(128.0f, buildDistance); "
which is far too large for some developers games/ mods, when smaller units are building at a significant distance (to their scale). Suggest to change the min to 32.

could this not be made relative to the size of the unitdef?

FLOZi (reporter)

I'm not sure what that would achieve really? I think buildings tend to be larger than builders, which I guess is the reasoning behind this minimum (units need to reach centre of large structures)

did this, windows build can be found here:
http://springrts.com/dl/buildbot/default/master/0.82.3-707-gca83a6b/

my own tests with S44 showed severe problems. try to build a tank barrier with german infantry for example.

German HQ engineer has a builddistance of 0.1, so that's very much silly values on our end.

Default is 128, minimum is now 38 => Can be closed

Kloot (developer)

Minimum value should be generated by a formula based on footprint size and build radius, "38" is much too irregular of a constant to have in the source.
