    Hows like most modern rts games waypoints are implemented to not only tell a player where to go but with which route to travel therei fits important and certain defences need to be avoided, I must have had so many moments where my team of tanks plow stupidly into the enemy defences to get to the enemy base when they could just turn a few corners and get there easily. Maybe if we could show them the easy routes this could be avoided :)

    maybe, like on placing waypoints

    holding ctrl while placing them will stack themup to a path

    Uhhh The wayfinding in this game is perfect, unless you count the drunks playing... The AI does not control where the units go... It would be nice to set a list of waypoints or objectives, perhaps with a text description of what you want them to do...

    Maybe when you place mutliple waypoints, a green line is shown between them, and the points are numbers, instead of hexagons?

    Or hexagons with numbers in them!
    Yeah, I'd love to see way points in game, I never command or anything, but it would be usefull to have my team's commanding tell me where to go and how to get there, since, after all, they have a better viewing ablity than I do and can tell me to go this way to avoid a turret rather than walk right into it.

    *shakes head*

    k I think you completely missed the point :rolleyes:

    I mean't so a com can lay multiple waypoints for a player so he doesn't just see 1 flashing point in the enemy base, instead the com would be able to show many different point to reach on the way to main waypoint. I'll post a pic if you still don't understand :)

    btw everyone else got it
