[FIXED] Camera issue and Hitlog issue
« on: January 19, 2020, 10:19:18 am »
Trying to update piratez k3 oxce to 6.3.4
To reproduce
first save just load and let the ship intercept,on my game its only shows one ship even with the other ships escorting it
second save just end turn,when the enemy turn ends the screen goes to the enemy position even if i don`t have line of sight
maybe i screwed-up updating it or something
@Meridian if you can`t reproduce the bugs can you send me k3 with 6.3.4 updated though discord? Vahn#6539

This is not a bug.
It worked the same in older versions too.

a/ When you are attacking the UFO, you need to give each attack order separately. Escorts do not attack automatically.
b/ Only when the UFO attacks you, then the escorts join the fight automatically.

second save just end turn,when the enemy turn ends the screen goes to the enemy position even if i don`t have line of sight

I have attached a video from v6.2 and from v6.3.4... of what I see... can you check if this is the same that you see... or if you see something else?

ok
it's not showing you enemy position... it's showing the position of your soldier... just the camera is on the "wrong" level (3rd level instead of 1st level)
comparison between versions attached (v62 left, v634 right)

there is a enemy there i checked and it shows even if i don`t have anyone near it
for the screen to do that you only need to have the map explored(not black)

not exactly there, just close

and it shows even if i don`t have anyone near it

I tried moving the soldier (Fugitive Barbara) to a different location... and then it showed me that new location (just a few levels up)

Here's a better snapshot showing more clearly what is shown and where the enemy is.

The second is a bug.

Just a bit different than what you thought.

No, actually being able to press it before was a bug.

I fixed it and it is now correctly not possible.

I thought it was a very useful feature o.O
btw, the ctrl+alt+h not showing the entire fight instead of resetting every new turn a design choice or a limitation?

It was not working correctly.
And was never intended... I didn't even know it's possible until I saw someone use it on Twitch.

Why is it useful?
There is nothing you can do with that information during the enemy turn...

Choice.

I just used it to know if the enemy crit or did no damage,during a long turn was kind of a way to know how the fight was going instead of only at the end of the turn and check reaction shots from my gals
i guess you're not gonna make optional to log the entire fight? xD
