Leroy30 Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 Is there any mod or would it be a 'modable' thing to be able to implement a tide system? Or would this require developing in the software.It seems like it would be very easy to do since the map has a water height value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idanwin Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 I believe this would require modding the engine.The water level may be adjustable, but you would run into issues with the pathfinder because the obstruction of the shores would change constantly, units could get caught in the obstruction etc.I think your best option would be to make the obstruction of the water constant (so that units and buildings can be built in the same locations during the game) and make the actual water level change only graphically. I'm not sure how this would influence the renderer (for reflections) though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leroy30 Posted January 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 I was thinking a more advanced solution where buildings and units would be destroyed if the tide came in over them.I guess there is a few dynamics there.It would jjust be cool that's all.

oshron Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 realistically, it would be better for buildings to simply become unusable if flooded, just like in real-life Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radagast. Posted May 9, 2014 Report Share Posted May 9, 2014 I think it's doable. We should add it to our list.Obstructions are in very deep water only, so I think we could really leave the obstructions as they are and not change anything related to those.Alos tidal height difference might be no more than 10m .. but possibly I underestimate our moon.
