wierd map bug
« on: August 09, 2006, 12:14:59 AM »
I have the film, and was intending to post it/send it to HT

on one of the most recent maps (older one kind of small) I luanched an LVT along with another guy (think it was michnix) and proceeded to go feet dry and head to town. at one point we ran into invisible hills! I got hung up for a bit then he did, etc to the point he just landed it to get of of the hell we were in.

Then, my memory kicked in.......same thing happened in the exact same spot to me about 2 years ago!!!

that's when I had second thoughts about spending even a minute of my time to send them the film

maybe I'll do it at some point, but I get the feeling that they are probably "spending all thier time on TOD"

so....is it worth the time to send it in? what do you guys think?

Send them an email, on which terrain and in which spot the invisible hill is. Theyll iron it out with the next terrain update :).

Yes, its definitly worth sending.

This is an ongoing problem with the map that was up today (Wed) before usual changeover.
All the grey hilly areas are infested with yet more invisible hills.

If I recall correctly it's not only a problem with that map, but any containing those grey hilly areas.
Perhaps showing it is a specific tile problem, rather than a map problem?

At A43 I was sitting next to the levy near the town with my Flak when an F4U tracked me with his rockets. I could then see through the levy into the town and I could fire through it but once I got supplies and moved around to another side of the town I could see the levy again. Is this something like what your talking about?

MwDogg, make sure you inlcude *location* of the bug (map and secto/kp). Im not sure they can grab that data from the film (i might be wrong on that though).
