Airmage Posted March 18, 2016 Posted March 18, 2016 Hi. There is an interesting glitch: when an artillery convoy passes under a bridge, the units disappear and, if the convoy is engaged, it stops with the units missing untill the convoy resumes the mission (some 5 minutes of non-firing). Don't know if it is a general problem, but it was noticed in a Mi-8 campaign, east of Gudauta. The bridge where it happens is shown in the pic bellow. Cheers!
Winston60 Posted March 19, 2016 Posted March 19, 2016 (edited) I don't know why they would disappear, but if engaged the default "dispersal" or scattering of the vehicles is exactly 10 minutes and perhaps the mission author has set this to a more reasonable 5 minutes in your case. When they disperse they scatter around randomly and are often hard to see because they are off the road, behind a building or obstacle, under a bridge or in trees and not lined up anymore. After the set dispersal time is over they form up and get back on the road traveling at the speed of the slowest vehicle. Never seen them disappear completely though. To test, try switching on labels and watch them as they pass under the bridge and after you engage one of them. An old ver 1.2 bug had vehicles "stick" to the superstructure of the bridges as they passed under them. I'll check tomorrow to see if this bug has returned. Do you know what type of artillery we're talking about here and Red or Blue side? Edited March 19, 2016 by Winston60
Airmage Posted March 19, 2016 Author Posted March 19, 2016 The mission was made by me. It's the Tentacle Soup Mi-8 campaign, mission 3. I did not edit any dispersal. They do disappear under the bridge even if not engaged, cruising on the road. They reappear after some distance on the road away from the bridge. It feels like that bridge has a temporal bubble where units get stuck.
