A Strange thing happened in my map....

Post by [JiF]zougathefist »

So I've been at this map lark for a while and learned the many and frustrating idiosyncrasies of BC1942.
However ther is one taht has me truly stumped.
I have placed a lot of sanbags in the map, and while most are fine some of them are behaving really weirdly. the seem to be twice as high as the appear with the top half invisible.
When you shoot 'over' them into what looks like thin air, your bullets get stopped and 'magic' sand appears form the aether.
Can anyone shed some light on this phenomena, or suggest a solution?
check out the pics to see what I mean.....

Maybe thats the same reason that sometimes you think you are clearing the ring of sandbags whist shooting an AA gun at foot soldiers or vehicles?
It seams like your aim point is above the bags, but sand kick ups and you hit nothing.

The bags are bigger than they look. Glad you solved that mystery for me Z :lol:
