Disable vehicle movement in jungle

[svevlad]

Hello ppl
I m trying to make my first mod so this is what I have done so far:
All ranged units IRL have ranged attack

Now the problem is when I try to make jungles impassable for tanks/sams, ...
I used FOLIAGE_IMPASSABLE but I wanted to make forest passable but with big movement cost. So this is what I did:

Note that Forrest_stuck is actually a new promotion which I m trying to implement but so far to no avail. It should make tanks and other vehicles to spend more movement points in order to move through forests. Furthermore, vehicles in-game treat jungle like passable.
Can anyone help?

I think this topic belongs in a different forum, rather than the LUA code one. Anyway, I'm not 100% sure if all of the XML tags available to us for this kind of change work properly, but "forest" is spelled with one "r", so it's "FEATURE_FOREST".

Ok you are right for that anyway... I am becoming increasingly stupid these days...Anyway the thing still does not work so... I dont't know, maybe it really is a LUA thing

I have mixed two tables together so that is why it didn't work. There s a saying from serbia which goes something like this in english: "You can't mix frogs with grandmas"
