Default Re: Thanks & Question regarding opportunity fire

There is no "supporting fire" feature I'm afraid.

However - fire fights get triggered by op-fires, A fires at 1, 1 fires back and B decides to shoot back at 1 as does A, then 2 decides that A would be a good shot and so on in a cascading manner.

The original SSI code did not consider someone firing op-fire a valid target for op-fire themselves, ie op-fire code was not recursive. Our op-fire code is recursive, and we did that some time back (2+ years ?).

So - more of a "fire fight" - but also sort-of "support fires" as your freinds can also shoot at units op-firing your originating unit - provided it triggers an exchange of op-fire in the first place. (By firing, or moving etc).

Cheers
Andy
