Squeaker Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 Just tried laying down a barrage of smoke for my men to evac across an open space so they don't get slaughtered, and the mortar team fire smoke rounds, which land pretty much where I told them, but no smoke ensued. The number of smoke rounds dropped, so I know they fired smoke, but no smoke appeared. It's an para light mortar section, not had a chance to try it with other mortars yet. I'm using the latest patch version with all the modules, Anyone else experienced this? Is it a bug? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akd Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 Do you perhaps have smoke toggled off? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonC Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 Also, the smoke takes a while to form. If the rounds just hit seconds ago and you are paused, you won't see a screen yet. In a minute you will. And in a few more it will be gone again. Needs to be timed pretty nicely... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nidan1 Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 Wind and rainy conditions will also affect the smoke patterns. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apocal Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 Hit Alt+K to toggle smoke back on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squeaker Posted December 15, 2013 Author Share Posted December 15, 2013 You learn something new every day, I didn't even realise you COULD toggle the smoke off! (ok, ok, RTFM, I know) I now have smoke billowing magnificently along the street. Well, I had it before, but I just couldn't see it. :-) Thanks to you all for the responses. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
