Summary	0003213: Previously working weapons refuse to fire
Description	A weapon that works fine in Spring 88 refuses to fire under Spring 89. Unfortunately I have no idea why this might be so all I can do is show you the def and how to reproduce it.
Steps To Reproduce	1. Grab S44 http://spring1944.net/files/Build/S44v159_PreMorgenroteTRI.sdz 2. Give yourself a {gbr, ger, us, rus}observ unit 3. Attack ground close to the maximum range What should happen is that the binoculars weapon fires, and when it hits ground, spawns an invisible unit to give LOS (this still works if you manage to force fire using FPS).
Additional Information	This is the def of the weapon in question: http://spring1944.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/spring1944/trunk/S44Main.sdd/weapons/Misc/Optics.lua?&view=markup There have also been reports of some others in certain situations but I haven't confirmed/reproduced those myself yet.
Tags	No tags attached.

Kloot 2012-07-20 00:41 developer ~0009052	It seems to work fine in post_release (the binocular "weapon" does actually fire and triggers the Explosion callin on the engine side, unit_scoutBinocs.lua receives it and L-view shows there is a unit being spawned), so whatever the problem was no longer exists.
