Hello, i need abit help

Hello, i made this forum account simply because i knew here is alot of skilled mappers who could help me to figure out some things. I dont know if i shouldnt make this new topic here but well anyways....
I would like to know if anyone knows how to make bridges indestructible. This is because when i go in game and i destroy arnhem bridge it just disappears ,no way to rebuild it. In map editor this bridge name is  Arhnem_bridge_35_00. Is there a way to make it rebuildable or indestructible?

You can definitely use some SCAR on it to prevent that from happening. I just don't remember what it is... but I'm sure you can find it if you do some searching.

Nbeerbower, thanks. I think i got it  :P I have another question, How can i change map description which appears under [ Map Info ] in game. I know theres in world builder Scenario-Scenario properties-Description but if i write longer one it cuts it off.How can i add longer than few words map description ?, Could you explain in detail ,please?

Re: Hello, i need abit help

1. Go to My Files/Company of Heroes/ww2/Data/Scenarios/MP/

2. Open the file yourmap.info (with notepad)

3. Place your description between the "" of scenariodescription.

4. Save it.

Attention : When you open the map in worldbuilder and then save it again it will be a short text again so you must do this every time you save the map in worldbuilder.

Hope this helps.

Thank you walki1 for the quick answer! Your instructions simple and good ,clear as water ,laughs.My map is almost done. Its my first one and -no its not designed for Eastern Front context. But i have one last thing to do what bugs me. How to make out of map area?..I know theres under scenario-Terrain Properties-Horizon Mesh but i cannot find anything what satisfies me.So i am looking for instructions how to make one, what fits with my map. ::)

Hmm. Never found out how to do it. Always found one which fits.

I think It's a kinda model.

Hi,

Reference :-Nobodys Quote from Relicnews

To create an invincible bridge, you have to add a little SCAR code.
1# Create a new file in notepad.
2# Insert this code into the file;

import("ScarUtil.scar")
function OnInit()

Invulnerable()

end

Scar_AddInit(OnInit)


function Invulnerable()
EGroup_SetInvulnerable(eg_invincible, true)
end


3# Save the file and rename it to Yourmapname.scar
4# In worldbuilder, open entity group list and create a new group, name it eg_invincible.
5# select the objects you want to make invincible, and add them to the group.

Thanks Funnyme ! Great, now i can skip this coding stuff and mess with world builder  ;)
My first map is ready. If you are interested to see it and give suggestions how to make it better then feel free.
