Howdy folks!
Have a small system test update for y'all this week. We're trying to make the tactical smoke systems in H3 function more reliably in terms of blocking line of sight, and correctly disabling and impairing sosigs when they're intersected by smoke. Check the devlog for more details on what's being tested. Assuming this isn't a performance disaster, these changes will be rolled out to the remainder of the smoke-emitting objects in game, and an API will be finalized to make it easier for Modders to play with this new functionality :-)
Hope y'all have a wonderful weekend!
Peace,
Anton
