probably already reported, but whatever.....

[Tymathee]

happens, not really a bug, just happens. Dont build it next to spawn.

[IIPraeToriaNII]

whynot?, last time i didnt, the crew retreated in ultra slow motion, and got vet killed....
and it wasnt next to spawn, it was near spawn.....
what is and what should not be..........

BUG>....

[Tymathee]

What im saying is that it's not something that can be fixed. Just don't build too near your spawn, it's just something i dont think is fixable atm. We've all had it happen to us, i've lost two vet 3 howies to that, no big deal, get it back in a few games. They just make huge targets anyway.

[IIPraeToriaNII]

bull, theres a problem with it and should be fixed before doctrines...
theres a high tendency for the thing not building, blowing up - blowing up its own crew,
incomplete building, slow motion retreating units then getting vet hunted, etc...
it happened again in a 4v4 yesterday and allowed us attackers to get nebel spammed to death
without the art we planned on using to soften up the damn doomfort line...

[Tymathee]

dont put it within the radius that your spawn can see without units being in it, easy enough. The only time this happens to me is when i build it too close, whats so hard to not do that instead of being stubborn and trying to buck the system to change for you?

[IIPraeToriaNII]

i didnt retard, it was halfway up the map, and i watched paks go boom yesterday, outside the spawn a quarter or so up the map...

so you know where to shove your bull shit statement.

the only time i have seen a howitzer combust is when I do anything to it while its building, or if i build it in the spawn radius as tym is talking about.

might be something odd happening, but the howitzer has not been tweaked with in ages..

How about you calm down because you didn't say that's what you did. I can only say what I've seen and I've yet to see a howitzer that i'm building just up and combust when it's out of the radius of the spawn zone. If you took what I said the wrong way i apologize, i'm just tired of people wanting things changed cuz of something they did or they suck against a certain strategy cuz they want to play their strategy so they want things changed to favor what they do, etc. etc. just the whining as of late has really irked me. Post up a replay next time it happens that usually helps, get the warning.txt and post that up or whatever, if what you say happened, happened, then there might be something wrong and it's random but since it's so rare there's no way to test it to recreate the event and fix it.

its a fucking joke. i have lost 4 howies this way due to pressing esc by accident or clicking else where. you cant even move the fucking truck otherwise shit runs out of the map. its fucking retarded.

[CrazyWR]

why are you even touching the truck when its coming on?  Just call it on, and don't select it when it comes on...

you have to select the truck to build the howie and where to build it.

why did the crew(vet2) retreat at a walking pace? - which is why i started building it at spawn.
later, another time it stopped (away from spawn) at 2% and the truck was gone, the only thing left to do was push the stop button,
and the thing blows up and you lose your vet, howie and crew.
another time it blew up by itself (away from spawn) then i found the truck driving away.
maybe the building of the howie ought to be given back to the engineers....
why is the truck building it anyway?

dont get all pissy at me cause other people are pissing you off, i was calm til you

next time maybe ill just post a replay............whatever... .. .

[Tymathee]

I've had stuff like that happen. Ever since they put in where it can retreat its acted funny like that. It wouldn't be such a bugga-boo if howie vet wasn't 2 cp.

i think they have the truck cuz its fragile. I also wonder if pop has anything to do with that.

[salan]

press esc before it starts to build, or press 1 (select squad 1) or.. many other things?

just don't touch it once it starts to load.

[deadbolt]

if you try to assign it as a squad before its done building, it will cancel it

[FailHammer]

maybe dont let your truck drivers smoke in the truck and light all the ammo up. Boom.
