Haohmaru Posted November 19, 2003 Share Posted November 19, 2003 It was very interesting reading about the fortifications bug, and now I have found another one. If this problem has been noted many times before I apologise, I am only new to CMBB. I just finished a battle against the ai where I was defending on an open map. The ai had a particularly bad day and it placed all it's troops in one concentrated position in the open. By the end of the battle my Panzer IVE was credited with 156 casualties and 9 mortar kills. The bizarre thing about this was according to the AAR, a total of only 7 mortars were knocked out! I went through the soviet forces and counted the number of mortars destroyed, it was in fact 7, so why were my panzer's kill stats wrong? This is not a game killer, but with all the other oddities ie fortifications causing casualty points, killed crews not counting, split squads causing oddities(which I think has been fixed) etc, it really makes you wonder what's going on with the scoring!! Are these problems going to be cleared up in a patch or at the very least fixed for CMAK? Please do not blame the game engine on this BFC! If anyone wants to see the file I will be happy to send it.

Redwolf Posted November 19, 2003 Share Posted November 19, 2003 Well, this didn't impact the actual score, it's just the kill count per unit being off. I wouldn't think it's a big deal compared to the real points not awarded or gotten for free. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tar Posted November 20, 2003 Share Posted November 20, 2003 Hmmm. I wonder if something like that could happen if the mortar was killed by simultaneous fire from the main gun and the machine guns? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haohmaru Posted November 20, 2003 Author Share Posted November 20, 2003 Yes, simultaneous fire from mgs and main gun is a good theory. Since you can't track kills with FOW on I have no idea at what point this error occured. Again, I'm not trying to say that this is a game killer or a big deal, my point is that some sort of bug has occured and one wonders how often this sort of thing happens. It may have been some kind of glitch due to the fact the soviets were so densely populated and were getting mowed down very quickly, who knows.
