Bermuda Triangle?
« on: March 25, 2008, 11:17:05 PM »
Not sure if anyone else had this problem, but about three days ago in the LW blue arena near A144 my compass readings were all 180 degrees off. Did not affect squaddie though. Just curious. Could just be my slowarse system...

I believe it's a bug with the 190s and the TA-152, but I'm not sure. I read it somewhere, but where... :huh

Where you in a LA?
Those compasses are a 180degrees off all the time.

Nope, Spit8, never had a problem before with it. I will have to go back and see if it happens again.

Bermuda Triangle indeed.  Yesterday I was in LW Blue.  The map showed me directly over a friendly CV.  I look down - not a ship in sight.  Two or three days before, some of the green, red and orange (squaddies) dots on the map are nowhere near where they should be.  Some are stationary, some jump around (especially when they key the mic).  I can film and take screen shots next time this happens if anyone would like.  I didn't note how the compass was working at the time, however.

If it was a single ship, it could have been down. The icon will still show, but no ship will be there.
