This isn´t a "zomg bring back old cloack blahblah" thread.


Yesterday I experianced a rather interesting problem with my Pak(don´t have the replay ):
My PaK fired at some tanks, recloacked, got hit by arty.

One man survived, and should run off, he decrewed the PaK and just stood there cloacked.
So I recrewed the Pak with a gren squad, it stayed cloacked, I couldn´t uncloack it and it didn´t move (obviously because it was cloacked).

I would be happy if some people could help fieldtest this and see if this problem can arise again and if it is fixable.

Ye iv had that same bug. It's because the pak use to be able to move in cloak and could retreat in cloak but no the pak has been changed to where it can't move the crew jus stay still until you uncloak them and move them off field manualy

The bug is older than Michael Jackson.

But in contrast to him, it hasn't been fixed.

I wanted to start a forum about this, but I won't waste the server "space". Is this bug going to be fixed soon? It seems to me that its a very simple matter of adding an "on abandon action" or something of the sort, because the cause is not complicated. With the defensive doc ability which restores some of the PaK's nerfage, the last man retreats just fine. Please just add something like a de-cloak + retreat on abandon and that will solve the useless PaK retreat problem as well as the complaints of super luger PaK crew scouts


BTW, there are bugs like this with other units where retreating doesn't break the cloak and you can't unloak because of the "retreating" status. I've also seen grens get suppressed for a short time and one gren decides to crawl for the duration of his life while the other 3 squadmates run around begging him to get up. I'm not sure if these last ones are engine bugs or architectural issues that have a modder's solution in store for them, but I'd appreciate the attention!

yea i hate how they just crawl around, get them in a building and it will fix itself.

If it were simple you could do it righT?

If it were simple it would have been one, IN beta thsi was an issue, the fact you have retreatign at gun crews is quite the feat athat auto retreat

I say don;t auto retreat, have ti sit there and wait for you to click it... That mgiht fix the bug....
