Issue Information Issue ID #000075 Issue Type Issue Severity 0 – None Assigned Status 23 – Fix Accepted By Reporter Version 0000.000 Fixed in 2014.020 Scenario Editor: problem placing bases on scenariosPosted by broncepulido on 01 July 2014 - 01:33 PM I think I saw this effect from a time ago, but only report it now because many changes or not changes on the Scenario Editor file, and/or usally I pick generic bases and rename/replace them for the scenarios. But now I'm clearly trying to build a conventional scenario and ... In both sides Blue and Red (and Green too), in the attached file, the first base placed is automatically and erroneously renamed to "B…

Magazines on ships and bases don't match mounts in PE. In some cases red magazines are on blue ships and bases. Looking deeper into my db it seems that the 1st magazine of a ship or base seems to be the one that is incorrect. Several examples are shown in the Word Doc. in the attached zip file. There is a copy of one of my db's that have the corrupt magazines. Please let me know if you need any additional information. Mounts and Magazines Not Matching.zip

Defect Name: Extraordinary sonar range Build: HCE 2007.000 Repeatable: Y Operating System: XP DB used: HCDB-071223 Scenario used: User scen - ROURKE.SCm Long Description: Extraordinary sonar range from DDG Burke and other vessels; sometimes in excess of 200nm CZs for even fairly quiet subs like Oscar and Victor III. This scenario was originally built for EC2000. For the re-building process, the editor changed the suffix from SCi to SCm and then ensured that all the units were proper. No idea if this is a contributing factor for this behaviour. Sequence to reproduce: 1. Run scen at high compression from Blue side 2. Sub contacts will just materializ…

Just playing a user scenario, and saw a flanker being shot down by a green pakistani ship. I saved it, and then the 2nd plane gets shot down as well. The game tells me I've shot down the plane. It seems logical enough that green has shot down the red plane, but my question is this supposed to happen? And would the green ships attack my planes? Should I sink green ships that threaten my forces? I remember one scenario which has a green ship which looks like a merchant cargo ship, but has a nuclear weapon in it's loadout. pakiflanker.zip

During game play shortly after missiles hitting AD units close to blue base Yelizovo, Russia GE crashed. Blue side destroyed Red base Yelizovo, Russia. Used Turncoat dll to turn base blue. Just after 25 seconds of play the GE crashed. This crash has occurred multiple times at the same time. I have included the last 3 seconds of play game time, GE Log and the latest edition of my db. Please let me know if any additional info is needed. GE2021.012 Crash.zip

During aircraft operations TonyD and I are receiving this message. If you ignore the message the GE doesn't crash. TonyD found that it occurs with multiple db's. At this point neither TonyD or I have found it affects game play.

Is this behaviour going to cause any problems when the a/c have more than one type of weapon? i.e. a plane with both ARMs and bombs/AShMs? Will the release of one type cause the a/c to return to base? Conversely, will the non-release of one type (i.e. ARMs) cause the plane to continue even though it should probably RTB once the AShMs are fired?

Target range is 15nm. Shall we close to intercept?" Sequence to reproduce: 1. Immediate…
