Bugs from Campaign, Missions and World categories.

Much welcome all.


I'll ask around to see if we can smuggle missions.pbo into the beta procedure as thorough testing is always needed with gameplay fixes.

I promise to handle all testing (CIT workflow Resolved->Closed) for these fixes in possible beta and in 1.60 final. If they would be will be included in beta, archive size would increase considerably maybe but it would give better quality assurance for final and it would be a cheer up for all content fix lovers after looking all those AI and engine fixes (which are important too ofcourse).

Another let-you-know, I've finally identified and isolated those skipped debriefing screens and decisions forgotten between campaign missions. Both are MP-only and programmers have been informed.

*edit:

It would be useful to know if detailed repro steps, GPS COORDS, long detailed title and screenshots are speeding up the bughunting and reproducing process or should I instead just report more than trying to improve old tickets?

Problem descriptions are quite sufficient now, so far I've been able to remember what and where it could be wrong in the code.

Re deleteCollection, it indeed seems to be back, at least, it pops up on auto completion in editor fields, and pressing F1.

Description says: same as hideObject.

I guess it was reintroduced for backwards compatibility, instead of the full functionality as it was before it was removed.
Which is probably sufficient for the usages in the missions.

Yea saw those changed to Upcoming version by Dwarden already a while ago, but didn't realize it was you! Big thank you! That really bothered me and my fellow gamers who wanted to complete all those COOP missions properly and because of those bugs we could not. It is a relief I can finally take those links out of my signature when 1.60 final comes out. I would like to know if you had to correct it for every mission separately or was there something in main code that affected those missions. I think there was some missions like COOP 06 Tank Busters where it occurred occasionally but those which I reported it happened always.

So my guess is that "mysterious coder" brought it back by that date.

I suggest Lets just Exipire or Close that [EW] ticket. If I ever have time to play Eagle Wing, I will run into it if it is still reproable and I can re-assign it myself.

Negative, that edit was by T_DBot and just before by kju.

Someone should simply confirm the repro

Unable to reproduce. I'll try to release the latest relevant data for you to confirm.

I'm all amazed by Jezurminator exterminating [HR] bugs close to extinction! Thank you big time! I need to feed this hunger with some old fat bugs - never before reported.

Great! Tickets updated accordingly.

Splendid, thank you!

Reported some more:

Fast to fix bugs:
http://dev-heaven.net/issues/25631 [HR] Dogs Of War mission Notes->Situation has typing error - Vybor airoprt should be Vybor airport
http://dev-heaven.net/issues/25632 [HR] Dogs Of War mission Tasks Deal with Russians has error saying Russian base is at Krasnostav airport when it is at Vybor airport
http://dev-heaven.net/issues/25626 [HR] Manhattan mission GPS COORDS 999153 marine platoon misplaced on sea at bottom left corner of map
http://dev-heaven.net/issues/25628 [HR] Bitter Chill mission GPS COORDS 094065 Gorka truck parked unrealistically between 2 walls
http://dev-heaven.net/issues/25630 [HR] Dogs Of War mission Major Begnov's head is partly inside wooden pillar
http://dev-heaven.net/issues/25629 [HR] Dogs Of War mission GPS COORDS 075101 Chedaki POW killed by NAPA supply trucks
http://dev-heaven.net/issues/25627 [HR] Badlands mission Michal Prvnak is missing weapon while holding hands like he had one
http://dev-heaven.net/issues/25634 [HR] Bitter Chill mission GPS COORDS 081060 two NAPA scouts and NAPA fighters are sometimes killed at NAPA safehouse yard

Not sure if these are fast or slow to fix:
http://dev-heaven.net/issues/25636 [HR] Dogs Of War mission "Can't Reinforce. Gr" message is too short to be understandable

Possibly hard to fix bugs:
http://dev-heaven.net/issues/25637 [HR] First To Fight mission [Multiplayer] doors status is different for host and clients
http://dev-heaven.net/issues/25633 [HR] First To Fight mission [Multiplayer] helicopter insertion kills human players 2, 3 and 4 (related to ARMA2 CIT - Bug #15621)
http://dev-heaven.net/issues/25635 [HR] Bitter Chill mission GPS COORDS 093065 shadows floating in house wall (related to ARMA2 CIT - Bug #25635)

Unfortunately reporting took all my time. So I ran out of time to trying to reproduce some of the previous ones which did not bug for you. Will look into it later.
