Infantry unit speed

How can i make infantry unit move with faster speed. I saw units with more than 19-20 speed gets stucked to a cell or walk in circles. I tested it myself it really happens ;>. I tried to fool the game and make it like a rocketeer with really low height but then ground units can't even attack it. (besides it seems like the lowest attitude is 10). Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Guess there are problems with pathfinding of ground units (locomotors for moving on the ground,i think) when they have such a speed,as you know the map is usually not that large in vanilla game and WW never made things more than what they need.Maybe Ares can make it possible in the future?

BTW,what speed will your units and aircrafts have when infantries got 30-40,i wonder #Tongue

You can't really. One possible explanation I can offer is that infantry are hard-wired (possibly tied to the infantry locomotor, which you could try changing into vehicle locomotor but I imagine this change wouldn't come without substantial drawbacks) to stop on each cell during movement (likely has something to do with the sub-cell logic where up to three infantry can sit on the same cell), particularly noticeable with faster infantry and once you go fast enough it'll break the pathfinding entirely.

First of all, the Flash is from DC, not Marvel.

Secondly, the Flash's movements would seem like teleportation to the naked eye, so I think you'll be better off just making him a teleporter. However, to effectively get him to teleport without the phase-in phase, you'll have to sacrifice chrono legionnaires. See the ChronoDelay= and the following tag in the [General] section to alter the phase-in delay.

Doesn't Ares allow for custom teleporters already?
