Acidic water is not a bug...

Code: Select all

	[WATER]
	{
		WaterSurfaceColor=0.34 0.59 1;
		WaterPlaneColor=0.34 0.59 1;
		WaterBaseColor=0.4 0.6 0.8;
		WaterAbsorb=0 0 0;
		WaterMinColor=0.1 0.1 0.3;
		WaterDamage=5;
	}

Maybe it's a depth issue? Do the non-boat objects that are getting burned by acid extend deep underground? Maybe their hitbox includes the depth at which acid begins?

Of course, I have no idea how acid-damage calculation works, but if it's calculated exclusively by height, that kind of problem is possible.

I don't think there are any non-boat things that are being damaged by it.

Who cares? Speedmetal is a map not intended for EE usage, anyway. If you want to play said "map", then I suggest you learn to live with it. EE is designed for maps which AREN'T a waste of Hard-drive space.

I care because there are other maps with water damage. Ones that don't suck.

^ has a good point, if the unit's sphere crosses into the water plane then is there is a possibility it will count as in water for the purposes of taking damage? Maybe the engine is not performing the in or on water check and just looking at if the unit is crossing through the water plain.

Try a gallop transport in gundam(it has a huge hitsphere) and see if it is taking damage on lowlying areas where it's hitsphere would cross the water plain.

Unit name: gallop

GO GO GO

The gallop is a hovercraft, it should be completely exempt from acid damage AFAIK.

Testing with CvC, hovercrafts and planes don't take damage from acid water, even if the planes are built on the sea floor.

It is an issue with floating buildings, they always count as being in the water and this has existed for a very long time.. it is not a ship issue.. make a factory that can be built over water and over land and you will notice on an acid map it takes damage no matter where its built..
