Why Can't Chambers Stack Anymore?

NGE

<div class="IPBDescription">Am I the only person who misses this?</div> Stacking OCs, putting DCs on top of the hive, etc. etc.

Why was it removed? Can it be put back in? I thought this was really fitting for the aliens.

I'm not sure why it was removed, but I miss it for the same reasons.

Yeah I miss shooting a few GL's on top of the hive and killing 4 aliens trying to hide.

You are really not the only one that misses this. I want stackable chambers back <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

I miss stackable chambers aswell, but i suppose it has something to do with a new programming code used in the actual version!? (so it is not possible anymore, but im not sure if a new code has been used)

Might have something with the hit collision code to do, well probably when they made a workaround of somekind for the medpacks.

Dunno I can still drop chambers on top a few hives, (maintenence on eclipse for example)

lol no your not alone, I'm sure that many miss it... they changed it because of blocking or unrealism or something... but it gave gorges more mobility

The_Cheat

Exactly when were you aware that stacking chambers was removed? Surely it wasn't in 3.04 or earlier, because I certainly remember stacking some OC's while playing 3.04.

It's not hard to stack, you just need a binded key and you have to be able to jam it. Unless hwere there is not enough space.

NumbersNotFound

I'm not sure if it was fully removed, as I still seem to be able to sometimes, but i'm not sure it's good to have back.


Is the old school 1.04 Wall of Lame really that effective anymore? Maybe against JPers

You can still stack chambers... u can also make 8 dc's in 1 dc and the same with sc's and mc's but you cant make 8 oc's in 1 oc.


its just harder to do if you don't know how and if you do know then its easy if you want examples i will post them when requested.

Also it was supposed to be removed in 3.0 as far as i remember.

He's not talking about structures IN structures, he's talking about structures STACKED on structures.

Heliocentric

you can stack chambers if you do it near the corners (i know they should be round, but work with me here) you can also drop on the edges of the hive. simply dropping things in the middle of other things is difficult. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> i know, the typical WOL is dead but something that is not is the gorgie tower/staircase.

You missed the 1st few words i said as usuallu ppl cant grasp the basics of reading so for sarcasm here it is for you in nice bold english:

<b>You can still stack chambers...</b>

I did a big example of it the shame was it was on a siege map as it is the only map i was guarantted enough res to do it on.

I got to the roof and it started collapsing and i fell off and died so someone else took the screeny.
