CO2 bug

AVGWarhawk · 03-06-08, 08:00 PM

Ok gents, CO2 was never a factor for game play before the add-on. Now CO2 seems to be working. But it is working a bit too good. In other words, the boat never vents. The little icon is cool. Click on it and the boat will surface but the CO2 never gets vented. Anyone here know what the root cause of this is? Repairable?

Hardcoded stock issue i think. (honestly id rather it be a mod problem, at least then its fixable)

I'm more interested in finding what makes the problem occur, and to find a workaround. My first shot in the dark GUESS, is loading a game that was saved while submerged?
That is a THEORY, that i hope can be proved true, because then we have a workaround. "(Dont save while submerged)".

If that isn't the case, then we have problem, a big one.

I had this bug too... I "think" I fixed it by saving surfaced with a different filename, then reloading the new save....
But in case that doesn't work I might have saved it submerged with a new name, then reloading and surfacing...
I'm sorry I can't remember exactly what I did, but it did 'fix' it and I was able to continue on my career (UBM).

I've also had this bug several times. I just saved a few times while surfaced, and eventually it loads with the CO2 status as vented.
I've also have gotten this bug while surfaced with rough seas (modified wave amplitude, etc...)

When my CO2 gets to a certain level , the little icon at the top right of the screen will appear with CO2 on it . I click on this and it says "surfacing the boat" . Now my CO2 will expel .

It is strange. I'm submerged, my little icon pops up. It shows 10% co2. Ok, no problem. I kept motoring along and surfaced later. No vent. I TC'd but no vent. The icon still showed 10% but the meter on the orders bar kept climbing. I saved at that point but have not restarted yet.

Did you surface by clicking the little CO2 icon up the top right ?
