Display3d.c has 2 defines that are normally commented out: Line 4169 //#define SHOW_ZONES Line 4170 //#define SHOW_GATEWAYS SHOW_ZONES seems cause a segfault, but SHOW_GATEWAYS works. When enabled, it puts markers at the map gateways - the predetermined paths between zones on the map. These are often choke points for the AI and lead to traffic jams and other problems if they are not wide enough or well placed. I thought it might be a nice user defined feature for people who are developing test maps and want to see how the gateways affect play and for people who are working on the AI to develop better path finding, formations, strategy, etc... The quote was from Per's SVN comment on r14xx, explaining that he had enabled SHOW_GATEWAYS by accident but was turning it back off. ___ Warzone-dev mailing list Warzone-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/warzone-dev

Re: [Warzone-dev] Gateway and zone debug illustration
yes there is documentation on this for the 32 bit world editor but would also be nice if maybe was available for ingame personally i would like to see a map editor as part of the whole ...but if its not possible thats ok too. ;) On 6/1/07, [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Fri, 01 Jun 2007 22:30:30 -0400 Jose Ivey [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Oops.

This will then be like the sensor visible toggle, so you can see how far out units sensor range is. A gateway toggle to see what needs to be fixed in some maps? -- Click for estimates on vinyl siding, 200% stronger and lower cost http://tagline.hushmail.com/fc/CAaCXv1SJD56n4ynTzPMFVFx8zGEECcP/ ___ Warzone-dev mailing list Warzone-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/warzone-dev
