[1.11] ZiS-2 crew bug and following crash
« on: May 29, 2010, 09:14:21 PM »
Hallo!

Want to point out following situation (occured with me SEVERAL TIMES):

I have ZiS-2, and german tank/gun/mortar shot at it. Near explosion destroyes gun itself, and (of course - like simular Mk.I or Pak-38) 4 of crew (it is with "upgraded ZiS-2 with 5 men crew). I understand that algorythm is when gun is destryed, all crew dies. It works correct with Pak-38 or Mk.I (4 men crew), but with upgraded ZiS-2 with 5 men crew - always get killed only 4 of crew, and 1 left alive. That alive crewman, have his Mosin rifle, and act like Strelki rifleman, and even could be refreshed (near his base or avanpost) to full 5 men crew (but this time all of them without their gun!!!) :)

Next strange thing:

I've noted, that when You choose "that last one survivour" and get Your mouse cursor to "empty" enemy gun (Pak-38), cursor looks like "it is possible to retake".
But: when You order them to retake Pak-38, game crash immediatly.

Total:
Pls, let all artillery crews die alltogether, with no one survived, to avoid that strange situations.

I can confirm this :P... You can reinforce the soldier up to 5 times. If you stop at 4 times(5 soldiers) happens what Artillerist said, if you reinforce a 5th time instead of a giving you a soldier it gives you a new ZiS-2, and so the squad is "complete".

Might controls everything, and without strength you cannot protect anything. Let alone yourself...

That's weird :P. I never thought that the last reinforcement wouldbe a ZiS-2 ;D.

EDIT: I forget to comment about another bug found while trying to get this one. I built my first ZiS-2 after upgrading to 5 men-crew, and it was completed but never deployed. It remain in that state for the rest of the game, of course I could deploy more soldiers but also the "incomplete ZiS-2" was there.
