Today, on a multiplayer game i picked my spawn location and something odd happened. My commander spawned in, blocked by some cracks in the ground and couldn't move(and therefore couldn't move to a valid buildingside). I know this was my own dumbness, but because it could happen again, to me or others, i decided to post this issue. Sadly i haven't got any pictures of it . [SUGGESTION] Maybe this could be fixed by giving the commander a "booster"(i mean those additional thrusters on spacecraft) ability in the first 30 seconds that enables him to "ignore" mountains or cracks. After 30 seconds they would then blow off and the commander would be completely normal. P.S.: Excuse any spelling mistakes, I'm not a native speaker.
Ok, good to hear I just realized that i formulated the issue missleading, so just to clarify: The Commander didn' t spawn on the cracks but on a little island between those cracks, just big enough for him and then couln't move/turn. So technically he was walled in by the cracks and not stuck on them. Btw: The rest of the game is incredible, even now in alpha. You guys make an awesome job! After the first minute playing this PA displaced SC2 as my favorite RTS. You guys are so awesome!
think i had the exact problem, loaded in new game selected spawn location and was stuck between the mountains and a huge crack in the ground image included (assuming i got it uploaded right)
Yeah this is the issue that I got Also Once i got my Commander spawn ubside down in a crack. Was a pretty funny sight. One solution to this problem is to ship the Commander out with an orbital lander.
It's happened to me and I was in a game, I think it was yesterday, to someone I was playing -- both times on metal planets although the first may not have been a spawn problem. Any luck with metal planet path finding?
