ME Buffers

[Gizzy]

Copy & Paste buffers from structure objects or non 3rd party objects often get confused and will not clear until file saved and restarted.

 

Copy and Paste for multiple objects of the same group not working...

I'll add on to this since this has caused me frustration as well

 

The copy/paste function for ALL objects (static, group, ect) start becoming a hassle after 1 or 2 successful copy/pastes using the ctrl+c/ctrl+v key commands. After clicking on the static or group object/s to select them, a random field within the object parameters will be active (usually selects a field on the same horizontal axis of the selected object on initial click).

 

Since the random field is highlighted on initial click (let's use the "name" column as an example), the ctrl+c function will only copy the name, and won't allow the person to paste the full object into a new area of the map. The only way to go about copy/pasting effectively is to click on the object while it's situated on the lower portion of your screen (to try and avoid having a field on the same horizontal axis)

 

Because before the update, just clicking on the object then ctrl+c/ctrl+v'ing worked flawlessly!

 

I haven't slept in a good minute, so I hope this post doesn't confuse the process of hopefully getting it fixed. Hell I'm probably overthinking it lol.

 

Glad I'm not the only one experiencing this issue though.

Experiencing the same problems.

I'll expand this further... the ME is also often totally useless when using a group of objects... example a group of 9 objects say 4 AAA and 5 ARMOUR. Often changing 1 object from say a SAM 8 to a SAM 15 changes all AAA units, period... then it is stuck in a loop... closing the file and reopening does not solve the issue.

 

This is running no mods at all and after all due repairs, clean outs.

 

Unfortunately DCS Openbeta build 2.5.3.24984 is virtually unusable on the ME creation side...

Correction for my last post...

 

The defaulted field selected after clicking on either static or group object is the last field that was edited prior to the ctrl+c

 

The only time I have the issue reported above (regarding the all objects within a group changing) is when I change the country for the selected group of objects. I'll edit this post if I run into that issue.

Its known and should be fixed in the next patch.
