Aircraft bug?

BigRich · 06-04-13, 04:51 AM

This is an issue when using sh3 commander. Part of the options are that you can set your crew default reaction time when they spot aircraft (and ships). I set aircraft sightings to real time.
Around land my tc is set lower because my rig struggles to process things quickly but on the open sea I regularly use 1024 or even faster with no problems. It's not often I encounter aircraft but when I do my tc intantly reverts to real time.

Same here.

In my experience the problem is not seeing the aircraft too late but that the aircraft usually misses you.I have experienced this in 1024 compression and I rarely was attacked by aircraft in 43 then some of the people around here enlightened me where the problem was.

Hmmm if this is a real bug that would be a show stopper for me. Was thinking about buying this game again and reinstalling it, I would probably pass if this bug is true. I know there was another bug that ruined it for me was the friendly fire ship bug, where there would be a shoot out going on above the waves problem was that it was friendly ships firing and sinking each other. that was a real turd for me. I can not remember if it was SH2 or SH3 and was fixed or not. Anyone know for sure about this 2 bugs? Thanks for anymore info.

If a deck gun shell hits a neutral ship then that nation will become an enemy and their ships will engage you for a set period of time (IIRC it's 24 hours).

If an Allied ship (lets call it British) is firing at you and accidentally hits a British merchant then Britain becomes the enemy of Britain and they'll fight each other until there's only one ship left floating.

Unless you're fighting surfaced inside a convoy then there's little chance of it happening, so yes the bug does exist but it's a very rare occurrence.

Protracted testing over recent years suggests x128 is the maximum tc before rendering difficulties occur.

Thank You Wreford-Brown for the great explanation for whats going on to cause this problem. Surprised the programmers felt it was necessary to put this type of gamey reaction in this real life like Sim. Interesting. Well I bought the game again time to read up on all the late and greatest mods and see if the Sim feels right to be a keeper! Thanks for reply! Lonny
