Line of sight Vs Line of Fire

(1/9) > >>

Coconut Jonlan:

Its mostly pretty good, but it does have some very silly moments when windows or waist level obstacles are involved - it seems that line of fire is only permitted when there is a clear line of sight to the centre of the alien's body.

I've attached an example of one of the silliest examples of this I've come  across to date - I could spit on the alien - reach through the window to shake his hand - but I can't shoot him.

Any plans to fix this? can it be fixed.?

Not in the near future IMO.

Shame - such a gaping flaw in the combat engine seems like a pretty big issue to me - although a simple work around might fix it, simply have all terrain items either the same height as the characters - or remove them

BTAxis:
If you can fix it, feel free. If not, you're just going to have to live with it.

vedrit:
you can change where your unit shoots. Just hit shift. It may only go up and down, but in that kind of a shot, thats all that matters
