Frenchy Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 This occured today in a pbem game I have going. The troop icon is away from my troops - I have an enemy unit spotted but can't shoot. Belive spotting is occurring where troops are but firing line coming from icon....has anyone else seen this? I did not split troops. Zoomed in close and did not see squad split... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zwobot Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 Did you move the squad with "assault" command? In this case the icon is centered half way between the fireteams until they are all in the same formation again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frenchy Posted November 8, 2007 Author Share Posted November 8, 2007 No I did not - just a quick move along the road in the trees.

thewood Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 Looks like there are even any squad members near the icon. WHat I have seen is squads getting spread out and sometimes the icon seems confused about where it should be. This is the first time I have seen the icon no where near at least on squad member. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuomio Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 I've had this too and the reason was, that one of my squad members was waaay behind, probably due to some movement bug. The icon is on the center of box tile, generated from all squad members. This should be corrected so, that the icon floats where the squad average is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewood Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 To me the solution is stop letting squads get strung out. If you are forcing people to play with an 8x8 grid, keep the squads in that grid. Not doing that seems to cause an awful lot of problems. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frenchy Posted November 9, 2007 Author Share Posted November 9, 2007 I have to say that this was the first time this has happened. Awaiting my opponent's turn to see if it crops back up on my move.

RobH Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 I think you are probably experiencing the problem reported on this thread http://www.battlefront.com/discuss/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=70;t=000473 This displaced icon has occurred with me when one squad member gets "stuck" somewhere for reasons unknown.

Frenchy Posted November 10, 2007 Author Share Posted November 10, 2007 RobH, It very well could be - I wonder if the marshland has something to do with it in this situation, ie "guys getting stuck"? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
