#6610 new defect

Starting units within the footprint of the civil centre

Description

The changeset [27060] added small flower borders to the Han civic center to make its footprint more obvious.

The change has a more or less big visual impact on almost all skirmish maps as some starting units are placed within the footprint of the CC. See the image below for an extreme example.

Footprint

A normal CC's footprint is defined in the template_structure_civic_civil_centre.xml file.

Line 
58 <Footprint>
59 <Square depth="32.0" width="32.0"/>
60 <Height>8.0</Height>
61 </Footprint>

Han CC footprint - templates/structures/han/civil_centre.xml

Line 
3 <Footprint>
4 <Square depth="35.0" width="43.0"/>
5 <Height>8.0</Height>
6 </Footprint>

Possible solution

  1. Lower the footprint for the Han CC or
  2. check each map and place the entities a bit further away from the CC (fav) or
  3. delete some maps.

Note

Rome and Maur have a similar visual impact due to their large footprint. The following image shows a compilation of all CC from a bird's eye view.
