My Maps Bridges Wont

dodgevipergts · Chem Warrior **Joined**: 31 Jan 2011

lately i've making a map with 8 very long bridges for TS. The problem is when a peice of the bridge gets destoryed, and i send a engineer into the bridge repair hut beside it, it'll repair the bridge cliff peice which the hut is next to, but not the actual bridge itself.

I've heard that there is a limit for the length a bridge can be before you must add some cliff or a bridge support, somthing like 12 cells, so i added a bridge support every 6 cells, but the bridge still won't repair when i send a engineer into the hut next to it.

I've never had a problem like this before in TS or RA2. And i'm sure it'll probebly have somthing to do with the bridges long length.

thx to anyone who can help me with this problem

I just tried it with a 16 cell long bridge and it worked fine even with out a bridge support. I Think your right and that it may be to long.

EDIT:
Again I tried it and made sure i had 6 spaces in between the bridge supports. Make sure they are spaced correctly

The bridge supports don't increase the max. length of the bridge. The max. length is something like 27 cells IIRC (I am sure it was over 20 and under 30), including bridge supports. The only way you can imitate longer bridges is to connect individual bridges with small islands consisting of bridge bases and some cliffs.
