Title: GV showing as aircraft on Radar
Post by: colmbo on November 13, 2014, 09:41:01 AM
Two days ago over tank town I could see three friendlies on radar.  Moving my mouse pointer over them I see one of them is Nitrous.  When I get over town I'm still see 3 green dots on radar but only seeing two aircraft.  I spot Nitrous icon and check his aircraft type to find he is in a Panzer.  I confirmed that his dot was still showing on showing on radar.

I might have film during that time.

Not sure why and I know it wasn't his fault,, he said he disco'd from a puter crash,, when he came back in I had his icon,, he got put back in his tank , in TT and that's when it happened, just a fluke deal I imagine ,,, but it would be cool if we had GV icons!

Was implying Nitrous was in the wrong.  I agree probably just some kind of fluke…bit got tangled with a byte.

Sounds to me like the disco reconnect is written such that the reconnection is registered as an airplane, which would somehow cause the game to think the player is now in a plane even if disco'd from a GV.

I WAS NOT implying he had done anything wrong.

Just imagine what my texts look like!

Happens when you disco & get back in to the game.
