Defect Tracking

When exiting game and saving only one time during the game, eg at game close, on opening the saved game the UUID and UUID_PREV values of ScenSaveDataIn are unchanged from the previous session. If at least two saves are done during the game then on opening the saved game the UUID value is new and the UUID_PREV value is the UUID value from the previous session, as I expect. I've made screen shots as follows: 1/ A fresh game start opening a scenario. The AIWindow console bottom left shows the ScenLoad passed data for ScenSaveDataIn.UUID and .UUID_PREV The next step is after closing the previous game with a game save then opening the saved game. The AIWin…

After capturing bases some of the text on base is jumbled up and unreadable. It looks like the text is on top of each other in the Unit Window. In my game I have turned over4 bases. The text on 2 of them is OK. The other 2 are jumbled up. I am not sure if the GE is causing the issue or Turncoat. I will try a smaller scenario and see if the same thing happens. You will need to use my fictional db. The Ugly The Good Unit ID Test 1-71.zip

Issue Information Issue posted by broncepulido Issue ID#000204 Issue TypeIssue Severity0 - None Assigned Status10 - Confirmed Version2017.013 Fixed in I did observe many irregularities in the Syrian PTG boats in the A Passage to Lebanon scenario, apparently Syrian boats don't abandon their original courses even after detected enemy ships, but they increase speed to maximum, keeping their original courses, don't approaching enemy ships. Trying to isolate and reproduce the effect, and before the "experiment" is a success (In the current scenario Blue ship is not yet detected by Red ship, for verify if course is changed), I did observe another prob…

In update 2021.005, when using the HC Launcher, if Instant Action is enabled and a commondb BattleSet is selected in the HC Launcher, the game may error out as a result of Instant Action conflicting with the BattleSet selection. This may occur after resetting the HCE registry settings in windows. Please let me know if you need more details. Eric

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
