[ TacEdit ] - what the obj parent id for?

Post by ccc » 2008-02-04 16:05:29

When doub-clicking on some obj, i found several obj parent Id is related to a higher priority obj, like capital, or a highly-popluated city/center.

does it affect the ground war?

i vaguely remember some doc said the obj parent id do nothing to ground war.. am i right?

The parentID automatically forms the relationship for the PAK area. I do know that every single objective in the original Microprose Korea Campaign was linked to a higher ParentID and eventually to the PAK area major city. I don't know if all the PMC theater campaigns follow this practice or not.
