feature change requests

You are here: Stellar Forces > Bugs & Problems > feature change requests

• I have opened this thread to track the features to be changed. It avoids forgetting about bug-like features exist in stellar forces.
  SteveSmith can maintain the current list here:
  - prevent grenade set offs to disable opportunity fire
  - prevent environment change to trigger opportunity fire

• prevent grenade set offs to disable opportunity fire:
  Actual behaviour:
  When a grenade explodes at the end of the turn, the game registers the changes in the environment and disables opportunity fires againt units that are visible for the opponent.
  Desired behaviour:
  When for any reason a unit is visible when making a specific action (turn, move, fire), opportunity fire is triggered for the unit which sees him. It should only happen during the turn and not at the end of the turn.

• prevent environment change to trigger opportunity fire
  Actual behaviour:
  Whenever a unit becomes visible and an enemy unit shoots opportunity fire with an explosive weapon, the unit keeps shooting until the following conditions: the weapon runs out of bullets, the bullet leaves the mission area without hitting anything, the unit runs out of action points. This behaviour makes blasters a strong weapon.
  Desired behaviour:
  Whenever an explosion is set off, the opportunity fire is not repeated for the firing unit until an enemy unit makes a triggering action.
  
  There is another case when an environment change triggers an opportunity fire.
  Actual behaviour:
  Whenever there is an environment change on the map (dismantle, explosion on non-destructible map) the opportunity fires are all calculated again on visibility.
  Desired behaviour:
  Whenever there is a change on the map, the program should register the current visibility pairs, make the environment change and then check again the visibilities. It there is a new visibility which was not on the list, trigger opportunity fire for the unit. In other words, I do not want the enemy unit to shoot down my unit (perform an extra opportunity fire) because somebody has dismantled a wall inside a building somewhere on the map. Also I do not want enemy blaster guy to shoot opportunity fire again, because he has missed his shot but demolished a wall block.
