Default Re: Can someone explain the new hills please

Well, you can tell yourself there was an "old way" and "new way" but I'll tell you the ONLY thing that's changed is we expanded the information displayed when you pass the mouse cursor over a hex for the CD version of the game. Previously, the only information about a hex was Height and the terrain types in it. The new display includes ground height, obstacle height , total height and Terrain Density . That quote you gave was an explanation of how things works NOT how we changed them because we didn't change anything just what's reported and that is further explained in the WinSPMBT version 7.0 Upgrade patch write up

There have ALWAYS been the occasional LOS oddities in the game.......it comes from using a hex based system to figure LOS
