Pathing bug?

http://zero-k.info/Battles/Detail/112216

Note that the ramps I ended up making in this game should actually allow passage to vehicles, while even bots couldn't automatically go up/down them!

Apparently the pathmap takes a while to update.

Quite a long time, judging by other games I used ramps in... Are you sure it is indeed updated? Is it feasible to accelerate this updating?

You babysit them, I use whip.

Actually new QTPFS pathing system should solve this, but its still is not ready for mainstream.

if you hold shift-right click and drag, you can draw a path and the units will follow it.

Right! No need for shift IIRC... But can you do that with a fac?

On a more serious note, pathing is entirely controlled engine side so ZK actually has little to no control over this. The good news is pathing is getting a massive upgrade in spring 92, see this:
