RFE: Make fortifications networkable like roads. #2511

Open orcmaul opened 3 years ago

orcmaul commented 3 years ago

I was looking at the swaths of fortifications that the map generator had created for a battle and thought to my self that they would look much more appealing if they formed a network of fortifications. I think the basic look would be similar to roads with a larger fortified area on end nodes.

Here's a rough idea of what I'm talking about. fortification network2

I believe Saxarba has actually mentioned something in the past about possibly making some new icons for improved infantry positions that would allow 'exits' to be defined, as with buildings and roads, so that networks could be put together. (And, if they are made , I have a bunch of maps to revisit and update. :-) ) Of course, that does require quite a lot of new icons, given the different exit combinations possible, so might take a while.
