A Few Major Issues
« on: October 16, 2003, 01:39:57 PM »
Missing options for viewing on clipboard, such as spawn points (assuming to be added later).

Clipboard will not remember its position after being moved (center not good).

Major problem: F8 view key does not work ffor view panning. The keypad only causes it to flicker.

On guns, field and ship, the gun seems to be disconnected and the barrel gets in the way of the gunsight when turned.

No access to hanger on ship. Selection list appears but not the graphics. Example: after selecting guns no graphics appear to allow choice of gun.

No graphics for Officer's club, option list only (assume to be added).

Major Issue: Crash to desktop common when on ship. Mostly when selecting hanger, but a few times when just moving mouse. Rebooting had a positive affect on this. I can send copy of XP error dump if needed.

Plane icons and tags in black background boxes. Also, they flicker.

Range labels in Panzer tank appear as black rectangles (no number). Did not try the Tiger.

Ran into an obsticle when crossing a concrete roadway at vehicle base with Panzer. Acts like there is a fence there that does not appear in graphics.

On landing, notable the Spitfires 5 and 9, it seems far too little impact causes a dump to tower with a crash. Not sure about P51s and 190, but 109 seemed to allow more impact. None seemed to allow a bounce landing, but that may just be me.

For what it's worth, combat trim does not seem to compensate for all torque... may be a feature =o)

Holdover of a bug from AH1. When in a ground vehicle, the first time you try to turn the turret the gun sight often does not turn with it. Exiting and re-enterring the turret fixes the problem.

Those are there now.  Right-click on the map and a menu pops up with all the toggles for field icons, field names, field alts, spawn points, zones, radar, etc.  That's also where you find the controls to add other maps to your clipboard, like airfield diagrams.

Problem is, the zone toggle does nothing (maybe the map doesn't have zones set up yet).  Also, the spawn points just show as tiny yellow arrows like they do in the terrain editor.  At most zoom levels, they're just yellow dots kinda like map rooms.  So you have to zoom way in on them to see which way they point, so you can figure out what field they come from.
