first & only game of the day, level of gameplay bad but we tried some interesting things.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
related to balance preview & used in this game :

• Medik kit
  
• Panzer 2 luchs
  
• Anti-tank gun cloack
  

• AEC
  
• PIAT
  
• universal carrier
  

Edit : if you need more, just ask but i'm not sure this is the kind of gameplay you are looking for.

From what I can see the weapon of the Sturmtiger is set correctly to do the homing nastiness you have in mind:
- Projectile is set to homing artillery calculation when no shot-blocker
- Accuracy is high enough

If you are still trying to launch the sturmtiger attack through an ability (instead of letting it auto-fire like a machinegun; shame on you), you also need to change how it operates.

Artillery attacks do not fire homing projectiles. Instead you want to adapt the ability of the Sturmtiger attack to look more like Grenadier panzerfaust (i.e., fire through an accessory weapon, check the targets, so that it's an entity, etc).

PS: You might want to ask to have your thread moved to the Modding forum. There's a ton of helpful people lurking out there.

well ty for answer, i searched a bit more today and found what i was looking for.
it was related to 'check the target' as u told, but for some reason wasn't working yesterday when i tried it.

Btw, what about a little buff of sturmtiger in the next patches, when you will work on heavy tank.
This unit is almost never used in 1 vs 1;

whatever how good this balance team will do, there will always be a moment where relic got to put the change inside the game.

We saw what happened last time with usf mortar, miragefla made us test a good mortar and we finally get something completely OP.

so, these kind of threads are useless IMO, we are going to get something completely different from what we are testing.

We tried some fancy variations, like higher speed, lower range for less damage, etc.

In the end, we decided that since the USF mortar has been causing issues for so long, we should go for a super-conservative design. Thus, we mirrored a mortar design that works and nerfed it down from there.

We did try some fancy variations (e.g., lower damage, lower range, but higher reload). In the end, we decided that this wouldn't stop the community from seeing ghosts and pointing the finger, as they have already been doing with Miragefla all those months. Stuff like "Oh, the USF mortar is still OP/better than the OST mortar", or "Now the USF mortar is crap. Back to 3-rifles, guys".

I'm mainly playing osther during this patch and was very happy to see the usf mortar finally nerfed.
So i decided to play some 2 vs 2 as USF against 2 osther player who started each one by building 2 mg42 followed by a wehrmacht mortar.

Well, because of the range nerf, ennemy mg42 could almost fire on my mortar when i was using it to counter the mg42 and the damage were .. bad. (at least against garizoned mg42).

I guess you tried to make a mobile mortar to allow usf to put smoke barrage there, flank then moove again the mortar and repeat .. but against double MG42 covering each other, you can't only use flank and smoke.

The problem is that the usf mortar damage was low, easily countered by grenadier rifle grenade because of the low range and VERY HEAVILY countered by osther mortar, especially at vet1 when it got its ability.

sadly, i didn't save the replay.
But you might maybe consider buffing a bit usf mortar range in order to make it viable.

i felt like it would be easier to upgrade smoke grenade & rush pak howitzer, just like in the old days.

no need to thanks you again for the time spent on this balance mod.

well, we are all on this forum because we like this game after all.
the only difference between us is that some would like to see RELIC more active at balancing game, that's all.. No need to fight @A. Soldier

honestly, i didn't need DOW3 to stop playing coh 2 that much and i certainly won't make twice the mistake to buy a relic game, so you might be wrong.
