Critical ammunition bug
« on: April 08, 2011, 12:12:21 AM »
hi there
i haven´t found it so i post it^^

i love this mod. realy! but there is one bug that makes it absolutely unplayable. its the ammunition bug!
its not everey game but particularly the soviets needs ammunition more than any other army i think and when the bug starts you can prevail over the whole map but you don´t get any ammunition! its totaly sensless to finish this game because most of your upgrades (even upgrades like ppsh) or abilitys like the il-2 sturmovik cant be used. but it looks like only the soviets and the new brits have this problem. i hope you can fix that problem with the next patch

It's called upkeep and has been discussed before. (Soviets have quite a large ammo upkeep)  ::)

Why NEVER people read the foru before post?  ???

Here's your answer:

* T70/T90/ZiS AT gun/Mortar/Firebase/ZiS-5 Medic Truck/Katyusha upkeep set at 0.007 munitions per tick (3.36 per min).

* T34-76/T34-85/SU-85/SU-100/Lend-Lease Sherman/KV-2 set upkeep at 0.014 munitions per tick (6.72 per min).

* IS-2/ISU-152 upkeep set at 0.018 munitions per tick (8.64 per min).

If it's like normal Manpower upkeep, it should disappear with the unit when it's killed.

They don't, but they trucks don't grant resource bonus until the upgrade is researched.

When units are killed the upkeep should decrease. If you don't have any of the forementioned units alive, your upkeep should drop to zero as well. If you have played thorugh irregular situations, please submit a replay so we can found the issue, as we did with the US.

Btw, I also think that the muni drain keeps away players from using abilities/purchasing upgrades at late game... let alone that some maps have a small muni income, but i get used :P

yes and the bug i mean is after loosing all units you should have the normal income of ammunition but its still at 0
so you cant upgrade new units or use abilitys.

i only saw this bug at soviets and the new brits
