Under certain conditions China Dragon Tank can shoot on bunker but does not clear its occupants #48

Under certain conditions China Dragon Tank can shoot on bunker but does not clear its occupants. Reproducible on Defcon 6 map with white bunkers in front of main bases. Does not happen always.

Would be great to find a fix to this, one of the most annoying bugs I would say.

Also happens in tournament desert original version.

I think it has to do with the flamer being on a different ‘level’ than the building it is trying to clear. If it has to flame ‘upwards’ it can not clear the building? Or something of the sort. I think it is terrain / angle related in any case

Madrageeeeee, much wisdom.

To fix up- and downhill targeting, we likely need to add a new locomotor setting MaxThrustPitch.

That is because increasing the Dragons MaxThrustAngle of 1 will not just thrust flames up- and downhill, but also sideways on passing targets and thus increase flame hit chance.
