Vehicles that can enter water without floating

happy072893

Hello, just wanted to ask what is the correct locomotor and any other flag to use if we would want to have, say a Grizzly tank enter water without having it be floating with the float locomotor. Is it possible?

Thank you for any answers!

I'm using this locomotor right now
Locomotor={4A582744-9839-11d1-B709-00A024DDAFD1}
that says it should be tied to infantry but it works. Is this alright or is there a better way to do it, thank you!

Also, are there any flags for vehicles for "EnterWaterSound" and "LeaveWaterSound"

Locomotor={4A582744-9839-11d1-B709-00A024DDAFD1} is the standard unit Locomotor. To make it amphibious you need to add SpeedType=Amphibious and MovementZone=Amphibious, AmphibiousCrusher or AmphibiousDestroyer to the unit.

There are no Enter/LeaveWaterSound effects in the game.

Actually the Seal has an EnterWaterSound= LeaveWaterSound=
All you have to do is create the sound or sounds of a vehicle going into and out of the water.

So if its a Rhino tank your sound entries could be EnterWaterSound=RhinoWaterIn
LeaveWaterSound=RhinoWaterOut
Now just add those to the Sound.ini and make different versions of the sounds and set it to RANDOM so that it more realistic every time it goes in.

EnterWaterSound= and LeaveWaterSound= only work on infantry and dont work on units which is what he was asking for.
