LensLok85 Posted October 9, 2024 Posted October 9, 2024 Hi The issue is during a mission I've written for the Persian Gulf, if CVN-75 is sunk by the enemy it's on deck static objects are moved to the maps origin Khasab airport after it is removed from the game. Raising this issue as would expect static objects linked to a carrier would also be removed when the carrier is removed from the game. When experimenting in the mission editor on Caucasus there seems to be two carrier sunk states depending upon the depth where the carrier was sunk: 1. Shallow water - tested depths between ALT -20 & ALT -60: When a carrier is sunk in shallow water, it cannot be seen in the F10 view, but the carrier object remains in the game including it's linked statics which can be seen on the F10 view. This happens when the water depth is too shallow to completely submerge the carrier after it's sink animation has stopped. The static objects may also be completely submerged but they still remain in the game. 2. Deep water - tested depth ALT -100: When a carrier is sunk in deep water, it cannot be seen in the F10 view, the carrier object remains in the game including it's linked statics which can be seen on the F10 view, until the sink animation depth reaches a value whereby the carrier object is removed from the game. At this point the linked static objects are moved to the map origin and remain visible on the F10 view. To test the static object issue outside of my custom mission I've created a test mission for Caucasus, all 5 CVNs 71 - 75, each with a linked F/A-18 static object. Tracks test deep water carrier sinking using: 2.9.8.1214 MT, unmodded, slow repaired Note: get same results regardless Supercarrier module on/off Attached Track: "Caucasus - LensLok85 - Sink carrier - Static objects re-appear map origin" Timeline: 12:00:00 Mission start carriers destroyed via LUA script 12:01:00 Carrier secondary explosions trigger carrier sink animations 12:03:15 Around this time the carriers are removed from the game and the statics are moved to the map origin, the centre of Crimea for Caucasus Attached Track: "PG - LensLok85 - Sink carrier - Static objects re-appear map origin" Another example of the issue for PG map, using 1 CVN, statics move to Khasab airport. Cheers! History Poking around the forums I found posts dated Summer 2018 describing static objects appearing at the map origin on the PG and Caucasus maps, but couldn't find anything related to this happening after a carrier has been sunk.
