Bridge Bug Fix WIP Thread

Hello,

I think every single person who has ever owned/played on ArmA 2 has experienced the so called 'Bridge Bug' in the many maps that use the bridge (Chernarus, Emita City ect...) and may a vehicle has been lost due to it.

I'm not 100% sure what is actually causing the bug, maybe some kind of Geometry or Collision bug?

I have thought of a solution to not completely fix this bug, but to some what over come it.

The idea was to create a platform to go over the bridge, so you wouldn't be driving on the surface of the bridge only the more stable surface of the platform.

Current Workings:

Test 1 - This was the first day I came up with the idea and about 10 mins later I create this.

- Create a very basic version on the platform with unfinished texture and not smoothed out.

Test 2 - About a week later I came back to the project.

- Fine tuned the platform

- Fixed the road type (Doesn't reduce your speed anymore)

- Made it invisible (transparent) so you can't see it

- Fixed some minor mistakes in the config

I want to thank DayZ Aftermath community and Development team for supporting and helping me with this project.

Thanks, Hem.

This is amazing, something so simple, yet effective :DD

How does the AI handle it?

How does the AI handle it?

Good question.

How does it handle a convoy of AI drivers?

My goodness. If you've really fixed this its a bl00dy miracle. How many great maps were plagued by this lousy bug?
