Naval Patrol Routes

truffa · Jul 8th 2022, 2:09am

I was organizing some of my ships to defend a stretch of water and I thought it would be pretty neat if naval units had a patrol option. You create a route that could be with several waypoints as to create for example a patrol around an island and then you select a patrol option. That makes this “route” permanent and the vessel just keeps patrolling.

thoughts?

Decent idea... but you already set ways points. looping afew times a few sec.

Now waypoints on Planes would help more. Rigt now you cant even manually set a waypoint patrol with planes

I have had this idea before and since it wasn't a thing I did just use several way points, but it would be great if you could set a patrol loop, that automatically engages hostile units.

What a great idea, I fully support that. I hope more people do, becuase if the users show an interest then some BA/PM may just take on the project.

On the few times I built land launchers BM or ICBM, I set them on massive loops always keeping them moving

sure you have realized Elite Bombers far more cost effective and can deploy wide areas at much greater speed. Ive never launched a ICBM nor have ever launched any missile from land. Think first time tried missiles did a land launcher but 12 hr reload after landing is an issue. But 3 Elite Bombers can launch 6 BMS and get in and out with no trace to get launcher hit; lvl3 5000 miles plus BM can reach almost any part of map. Launch over water and they probably think a Ballistic sub

I am insulted.

First I am insulted in my unit knowledge. Then I am insulted by an irrelevant point. Then after a reflection, I am insulted again with more questioning of my unit knowledge. All because I tried to tie into the topic with something I do once in a blue moon, when I'm screwing around.

Pah!
