a video request for a bug report.

Post by smoth »

I need to post a mantis about the long standing bugs with start and stop moving.

Examples of behaviors I need to show:

EX: aircraft not kicking of thruster effects or wing unfold animations due to stop/move commands causing start/stop moving to not trigger properly

EX: infantry walking in place because they moved to fire.

any other examples you can produce where the move animation does/does not trigger properly due to start/stop moving.

As my project is dead I cannot post my unit and scripts as examples so I need someone to give me a short video or 3 or however many you can post on youtube. please have the video as unlisted so the uglyness of this bug does not get smeared all over youtube. Please post it in this thread with project name and unit name so I can go make a mantis and a engine dev, when he gets a chance can possibly look at it.

Yeah, start and stop moving have been pretty buggy since I can remember. The main areas where I have noticed it are on aircraft, because I have aircraft go into various formations depending on speed and also things that happen when startmoving and stopmoving.

Meh. I had just assumed that no one cared enough to mess with it.
