So i have the latest proGen mod now and ive kind of been editing SOME of the maps to make them a little more interesting.

but i was also trying to fix some things on some maps with the overall layouts, one that ive been really REALLY trying to fix has been the Demo Generals map, but i dont know what is wrong with it.

can any one tell me why there are so many path finding problems wiht that map, i mean what is wrong with it that ground units have to move half way around the world just to move to the spot that was right beside them.

can any one help me on that?

sorry about that, ive talked about it a number of times on different sites and got no replies, saying the same thing 50 times, i forgot to say what the problem was.

my bad.

any ways, the problem is path finding on it, ground units have to move half way around the world just to move to a spot right beside them.

i dont know why or how to fix that because it really bothers me because of that.

So, you select a unit, tell it to move a bit to the left, and it circles the map before coming to the location you told it to go to?

for the most part yeah, maybe not the entire map but what ever units dotend to take a nice little tour, and half the time they done even end up in the spot that you tell them to, tell them to go there again and the same thing happens.

and from time to time if your trying to place a building in what ever spot, it acts like there is some thing there.

so i found out what it was, and its so FREAKING STUPID that THIS is whas messed it up.

the objects like random blast mark generators and things like that, ambient sounds or what ever else, ACTUALLY blocks the path of any ground based units.

thou i guess there not really objects, but they can block things, even prevent buildings from being placed.

so there you have it for any one thats been trying to find it out
