China Uberlord Vs. USA Command Center

My ZH is working again, and I thought I'd celebrate it with an absolutely epic moment. I was playing GLA on a custom map with an Uberlord, and tested out its new feature. Crushing buildings beneath its treads. I had to GPS Scramble it since enemies were attacking it furiously, and I didn't want them to accidentally blow up the command center before I crushed it.

Lesson:
Don't mess with the Uberlord.

Crushes buildings D:!

Make it so it can't crush Heroes, that would look so Epically stupid

^ indeed
Looks like so much fun

Dude this was like my dream for vehicles to crush structures! Nice man.

That surely is epic! And I thought the Nuclear missiles in its top side was catastrophic enough.

I never knew crushing buildings in ZH is possible D:
This UperLord is FTW!!

Very awesome indeed

care to explain how crushing building work, crushable = 4 and decreasing the crush armor on buildings ?

Is it just me, the first pic looks like its stealth...

I think it is

There's your answer.

Originally, buildings were completely uncrushable. They didn't have a crushable level, so not even a unit with CrusherLevel = 1337 would work. Also, the GeometryIsSmall = No coding made it impossible to crush as well, but I'm not sure of the consequences of removing that from buildings.

So, by adding a crushable level of 4, and changing GeometryIsSmall to yes, you can crush buildings with any unit with a crusher level of 5 or higher.

Here's my system of unit levels:
-------------------------------
What can it crush?
CrusherLevel: 1 = Infantry, 2 = Trees, 3 = General Vehicles, 4 = Overlords/Super Units/Base Defenses, 5 = Buildings

How does this unit rank on the crushable scale?
CrushableLevel: 0 = for Infantry, 1 = for Trees, 2 = for General Vehicles, 3 = for Overlords/Super Units/Base Defenses, 4 = for Buildings, 5 = for Uber Units

Coding-wise, if the Crusher level of an enemy unit is greater than your Crushable level, you can be crushed by it.
-------------------------------
On a related topic, should I make base defenses crushable by overlord-sized units? (Battletank, Emperor, Gattlinglord, etc.)

One of of the uber units should be tiny just for fun!

The Ghost Sniper from Bubble Tanks. D=

Question time: Can UberLord survive a nuclear strike?

I don't see why they should, if they can't be fanned away, they have to be nuked away.

that's quite neat i didn't know you could go beyond that crusher level thanks for sharing

I would do anything to make 2 opposing Uberlords crush each other.

Thats kinda stupid don't you think?
I wonder if The Hunter have something like Sentinels crushing small base defenses in mind.

Any wouldn't it be fun let the nuke missile able to target air? With massive splash damage, manche rush? Where? (Looks at the pile of molten metal on the ground.)

Nice thing to try out: What if a unit's crusher level is higher than its own crushable level? If two such units encounter each other, who will crush who?

OMG! sounds like... bug view i think they will ride trough each other crushing each ether. maybe they'll be stuck in each other floating in air 'cause noone gets up to crush. but nice experiment indeed.
