Assault Bug in DF'85 - Pinetree - 12-23-2021 I've noticed there's a little bug with assaults in that if you try to assault with a unit that can't, you get a message with the following: ![[Image: 89hrrtK.png]](https://i.imgur.com/89hrrtK.png) IIRC I should only see the first line. The assault icon will then stay there for the rest of the turn even though you can't do anything. RE: Assault Bug in DF'85 - unonimus - 12-23-2021 I asked the same question before: (11-29-2021, 01:04 PM)unonimus Wrote: By the way, units can draw opportunity fire by trying to assault even though they don't have enough movement points or they are not able to assault (like artillery). Is this intended? I have tested it on both PzC and MC. It might be intended, but I don't know. It doesn't happen on previous versions, either. RE: Assault Bug in DF'85 - Fhil - 12-23-2021 Looks like this is true for the Panzer Campaigns also...just messed around with some Scheldt scenario of Walcheren...I have tried to launch an assault across the canal hex. It is not possible to do so with this unit, but even so, there is this assault icon on the target hex and it also triggers enemy fire, liek in cases when the assault is actually possible. I get the same message on the screen as posted above...I don´t think this is intended, it is probably a bug after the new updates. RE: Assault Bug in DF'85 - Strela - 12-23-2021 Hi all, The messaging you are seeing may have crept in as we rewrote the assault code. We will have a look at it for the next round of patches. I can tell you that the assault code is by far the most complex section of the game code and we spent a long time to get it working properly. There were issues (not obvious) previously.

If you continue, there will still be an assault minus the unit or units that don't have enough movement.

I take this as you may not have the movement to assault, but, you had movement to go into travel mode to cross. Movement draws fire. That's the way I see it and have to try something else or take my losses and try to bull through next turn if possible.

Which means you need a bridge to cross or an engineer to ferry/boat across. In which case, you need to be in travel mode to do so. None of those three look to be in T-mode. RE: Assault Bug in DF'85 - Fhil - 12-25-2021 Just to clarify and repeat, none of my "assaulting" units were able to assault across that canal, so it´s not about one unit being able to and the rest not.

However, I know the unit was ineligible and that's not the issue here. The issue is getting the conflicting message and assault markers with opp fire after an assault has been declined. |
