Waypoints for Movement

Post by Stand_Sure_Anderson »

Implementing a way of issuing waypoints as movement commands would be useful could actually prevent our merchant marines and other units from sailing right along the coast lines of enemy forces and allow for a more refined tactical play on land.

You mean http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/f ... =888522245, but then the waypoint on the map?

I mean ships north of Norway trying to go to a shipyard south of Finland through land? Yeah that would be funny...

Pathing and Waypoints are actually different. Even with improved pathing, some users would still want waypoints to create specific routes.

Other similar bug is when land units are stacking to a shore trying to reach barracks located to a nearby island. This happens when the closest barracks are on this island.

Exactly like planning a route for an Air patrol so it can literally follow up a road leading to an enemy barracks as an example.
