Spring RTS Engine

This bug happened in BA, but may happen too in other mods:



I believe that the unpassable height diference that traped the cons vehicle was caused by the leveling that buildings do then built + the little downyard inclination near the exit of the factory.

And what keeps you from posting this in the BA thread instead?

It is actually an issue that can happen with any mod - terrain changing can cause the terrain to change height elsewhere, causing situations like this.

Did you try to restore the ground under the plant ?

No... restoring height is one possibily I never remember...

But its still a bug right? I mean making a factory shouldnt cause something that blocks you from using it...

Its not a bug. Just use your brain. This is similar to someone building thier factory with the exit facing the edge of the map, or a wall, and calling it a bug. Think. :)

Uhh no, it IS a bug. That should not be an issue... imagine 5 or 10 factories... why should i have to go through the trouble to handle them?

Ideally, the engine should not allow a person to build a factory in a place where it's products cannot leave... but because of Spring's free-form movement, that's pretty much impossible.

However, consider any other RTS where your units can get trapped in the factory.

My solution: design your factories with more openings.

Or with a catapult...
