Title: Added Feature in ME - Draw Tool
Post by: AG-51_Thud on October 21, 2021, 10:22:26 AM
Simple tool available in the ME in the current release.  May help us create brief packages.

But in all seriousness, this is an insanely powerful too.  Well more powerful than anything in similar milsim games.  Looks like you can draw dynamic battle lines down to the foot, and I'm looking into if these can be triggered by trigger conditions now.

So theres some interesting applications here, creating detailed no go areas on ship diagrams and airfields, or on the macro level, showing no fly zones of a region.  You can show taxi signs for dense airfields, you can show battle lines, and the direction of some of the details on some of the lines is dependent on which direction you draw the line from.  Then by taking a screenshot in the editor, you can simply crop an image and include it in a .miz briefing

Still waiting for my game to update (1 hr in on an ETA of 2.5 hrs).  From the responses to the video I think doubtful to trigger it.  It, however, appears you can select who will see it on the F-10 map making it very meaningful.
