A bridge, flyover, viaduct - is what we need!

[Merowingg]

Hello Gentlemen

The idea is already stated in the title. Many times I had interesting ideas which could be realised only with the possibility of a bridge.

What I state here is a bridge over a road, but ones above water would be cool to as beneath hovercrafts could fly, while the bridge could be used by of course any unit.

But most importantly viaducts obove terrain could do miracles. Well designed could be a real eye candy.

It would open a lot of new gaming possibilities not possible now. Such constructions could be destroyed.

There could be two forms of such, build by trucks, and ones that are a part of a map itself.

What do you think and how impossible it would be to implement within years?

Regards,

Mero

I imagine this is nightmare with current pathfinding system and 3D engine.

Ignoring that issue, however, I'd like to add to your list: Tunnels. I want to bore giant holes through mountains and send tanks through to the other side. I know I could use transports, or just take the long way round, but really, it would be so much fun to have tunnels. Even if they had to be put on the map at design time.

BTW: There is a cursor from some past times for bridge building...

Ok tunnels.. I assume such tunnels like we have now for cars would be ok. Any other holes would be unexplainable

I still imagine that it would be easier for camera deal with viaducts, but I have no idea about this stuff.

Thanx for the pathfinding problem explanation and the icon which will be an icon of hope for me
