Default Re: Mod Question

When we discussed the 25m hex years ago, we discarded it for the following reasons: Artillery, bombs and are other large weapons are coded for a 50m hex. You could double ranges speeds and so on, but then you are up against the 255 asymptotic limit. Every weapon range would have to be doubled. Every range would have to be doubled. Speeds of all units from donkeys to jet aircraft would have to be doubled. It's a lot of work for very little return. The engine assumes a 50 metre hex and you can't get round it.

And don't ask for the source code. I have NO authority to speak for Andy or Don, but they have repeatedly (IIRC) explained that they are NOT ALLOWED to share the source code with anyone. (Please correct me, gentleman, if I am wrong).
