Teamcolor Problems
So there's a bug/problem I've noticed for a loooong time in my project, but I've put it off for... well, no good reason, other than apathy.
I've noticed that whenever units from opposing sides (or players, in an all-human game) get near each other, they change their team colors. Like if a red unit and a blue unit get close enough, they'll both turn blue. Or red.
They're still enemies, but the team color changes, and I don't need to explain how not-good that is. So, any thoughts on this?

There seem to be more teamcolor issues, I have also seen this switching, but with distant underwater units.

to just show three recent ones. Perhaps you can add to the information presented therein in order to speed up detection and fixing of these bugs.

Re: Teamcolor Problems
I have the same problem. I reported it a couple time, but lost hope of it getting fixed.
Re: Teamcolor Problems
I've never seen it. Is it another ATi problem?
Re: Teamcolor Problems
I'm afraid so.

Re: Teamcolor Problems
... But I have a Nvidia card. And I've never noticed this before I started work on my own units and whatnot.
Re: Teamcolor Problems
Nvidia as well...
Re: Teamcolor Problems
Try to figure out what you have in common and add that to the bug report. (Spring settings, driver version, etc.)
I've nvidia too and except for cloaked units I haven't seen this bug yet.

Re: Teamcolor Problems
I seem to recall some people saying that this bug only occurred with reflective units disabled.
Actually I'm surprised no one had reported it sooner, loads of people have had this problem.

Re: Teamcolor Problems
Back in 0.81.1.3 I had that bug only when reflective unit was disabled. Now I have that bug no matter what's the state of AdvUnitShading.
Tobi: Considering they have NVIDIA and I have ATI, I doubt we can find the cause in a common driver.
