can not reproduce SCUD not firing at all

[Lukas2438]

Hello guys,

a few months ago my preplaced SCUD launchers in a mission started preparing and finally launching the missiles towards the Fire at point marker created via Mission editor.

As of now this no longer works. I tried to use the F10 Map while in mission to set a target, but after clicking on start fire nothing happens, too. I know it usually takes a few minutes until the SCUD launcher is ready, but there's absolutely no movement.

 

Any ideas or simply a bug?

Greetings Lukas

I cannot duplicate this issue. They fire with both the editor set command and through CA. Did you double check the min and max ranges for the target?

I have had similar issue with scud. my problem was about terrain. sometimes scud don't erect its missile because terrain isn't flat enough. check this change their position.

Hello again,

I did create a very simple "mission" just including two SCUD launchers and a GAME MASTER slot to occupy. Weird thing now is, that Ground-1 with a target about 60 percent of max range will not engage, but the Ground-2 prepares and launches its scud missile with a target at about 95 % of max range.

Tested this with swapped targets so Ground-1 would engage the identical point that Ground-2 was firing at just before, but still nothing.

Is there maybe a bug with the first placed scud unit overall, Ground-1 in this case?

I don't have your issue with today's OB:

Well, it seems that the OB update some kind of fixed my problem. I can confirm that in all of my recent tests on different maps/locations the launchers fired all desired missiles.

Anyways thank you very much for looking into this.

You're welcome.
