Sivodsi Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 [Edited to change the title] Apologies if this has been posted about before, but I've found in a PBEM that after I 'acquired' RPGs within a BMP-1p it doesn't show up on the infantry's weapons. This is minor as long as it does show up in the infantry's inventory after they've dismounted. I'll let you know if that happens.

Sivodsi Posted June 17, 2008 Author Share Posted June 17, 2008 Apologies if this is a known bug, but I did search and couldn't find anything. The Syrian units in this PBEM cannot acquire RPGs, and if they do use the 'acquire' command, the RPGs simply disappear from the inventory. Picture 1: BMP-1p with RPGs Picture 2: BMP-1p after the acquire command was used, and it looks like they have been acquired because they are no longer available: Picture 3: However, the unit that was aboard does not have them either. Where did they go? Did they suddenly dematerialize? Were they beamed up by Scotty? The Syrian Units were 'recon' units, is that the reason why they could not take them? If so, why not - are they not trained in their use? In which case the 'acquire' command should not have the RPGs as an option. Somehow I can't believe that they wouldn't take them if they knew that American forces were around - and they are supposed to be easy to use, right? Any other possible explanations for the Syrians being depowered in this way? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Something Something Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 They don't have a launcher. It's just the 85mm PG-7V warheads that are in the BMP, not the RPG-7V launcher itself. Notice how they only have four rifles? They can't throw them.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pandur Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 hehe, yea you tried to give it to a recon squad. probably they threw them away just outside of the vehicle as they see no point in carrying them. seriously, i think its not good to make the warheads "vanish". they should go back to the vehicle as soon as you try to take something wich cant be used by the pecific unit. or better give us a un-acquire, so we can do it ouerselfs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sivodsi Posted June 18, 2008 Author Share Posted June 18, 2008 Ok I stand corrected, but its still a bug because if they disappear they are unavailable to a unit that can use them. Please fix. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
