Artillery - Barrage to start and pre-populating damage

Post by Brummbar44 »

I'm sure this has been asked before...but I couldn't find it?

I want to do two things...

1) Have an artillery barrage go off at the start of the battle...and maybe even have one go off at pre-determined turns. Any ideas? I know one of the official scenarios at least has a bombing run to start the battle, but can't recall which one.

2) Is there a way to use the artillery damage graphics to place on the battle field in the design? I seem to recall someone asking this, but couldn't find it.

So, is there no way to pre-populate the field with artillery barrage marks?

You can do a pass damaging tiles to show craters etc on the map, if that is what you mean?

//damage a tile by the specified amount. Tile damages ranges [0,255]
DamageTile(x, y, amount)

Cheers
