Any chance of getting rid of bridges?

[Teleklos Archelaou]

I realize one could do away with road upgrades, but would there be any chance at all of getting rid of the bridges themselves but keeping roads and highways? If we could just have river crossings at every river instead?

I guess I am hoping that there might be some sort of 'redirect' when the exe searches for the battle map buildings - and maybe something could be done in that area. But I know nothing at all about how the game handles battle map buildings, so it's a shot in the dark to even ask the question.

I would also like to know this, though I suspect it is hardcoded...but I guess cas files can be edited to look invisible, although that would really only work on the start map. The road (bridge) efefcts the river too it would seem (bridged rivers are deeper on the battle map)

A way of getting rid of the bridges is to make all the rivers navigable. The drawback is the roads are not crossing such rivers.

Teleklos, if you don't upgrade the road, will the crossing be somehow upgrated to a bridge anyway?

[Teleklos Archelaou]

Not sure what you mean? I'm sure the bridge can't be upgraded if the road isn't - but I'm not willing to go so far as to not allow roads to be built.

Since the roads don't cross, wouldn't you just create a landbridge to cross where one road ends another would begin?
