From the manual...

"Engage Opportunity: If enabled, the unit will engage targets
not directly related to the mission at hand. If disabled, it will not.
Enable at one’s own risk, for this can lead to dangerous behavior."

I think this pretty much aligns with what you are seeing. Also check your ...

When I try to unzip the .save file, I get an error message.

When I opened the original scenario in the editor, I saw that under the side doctrine that "Engage opportunities" is set to "No." Could this be causing the problem?


Sorry you’re having trouble opening the file. I tested it on ...

So here's a quick scenario save showing the potential issue:

In this scenario my two friendly CAP aircraft are on their way to the patrol area and are about to be engaged by two marked-hostile tracks before they arrive. They absolutely will not engage in response if left to their own devices ...

All of your issues depend on the platforms involved and the exact situation. Because of this it is usually recommended to post a save when asking for help with that kind of issue.

Just from what you wrote though, if the problem was solved by turning "engage ambiguous targets" turned on, that ...

I have tons of hours on CMO but had to take a break due to some medical issues. I'm back now, last time I played was right before the tiny/warplanner update, trying to get back into the swing of things and have just minor issues with some the AI doing things I don't want.

I noticed today, my ...

So just to confirm, we will need to manually convert all the jpgs in the Community DB picture pack to the new format to keep seeing those pictures once this version goes live?

Try this:

1) Download and install VMWare Workstation Player: https://www.vmware.com/info/workstation-player/evaluation
2) Create a new virtual machine and install Windows on it.
3) Once the OS is ready, install Steam on it and download and install Command in it.
4) Check if the same issue appears ...

I forgot to include the DXDIAG so here it is. I'll also update the front page with everything I've tried so far so anyone looking into this does not need to go through pages of posts. This should make it a lot more readable and easier to digest for any devs or members of the community that are ...

Wanted to post a quick update after trying the beta. Unfortunately, the issue still persists.

Do the devs have any suggestions on stuff I can try to get this working? I'd really like to get some eyes on this as currently the game is not very playable, and I've done absolutely everything I can ...

Ran some more troubleshooting today I thought I'd report here so the devs can see what I've tried and ruled out, today's troubleshooting steps include:

-Rolling drivers back intermittently up to a year. Using DDU the entire way to make sure the driver installs were clean.

-Disabled all start-up ...

The devs use this method for protection, you cannot use new dbs with older versions of the exe.

The current CSP is v48.

I think you could use v47, but there is no link available.

The last version seems to be v46, try this one.

The eventlog is now complete and displays no error or interference.

I bet for a bug, indeed there are bugs in the 64-bits/DirectX 10 version that were not present before, like the losing of borders and coastlines.

Lets hope the new beta will fix them :)


I'd stick to using the legacy 32bit ...

I hope so, so far every where I've ...

My guess is you have some kind of overlay running in the background. Thats what I have found causes flickering. Usually nVidia or Steam overlays, but some of the PC companies and GPU companies use overlays also.


Thanks for the suggestion, unfortunately making sure all overlays were turned off ...

Wait, the event log is incomplete.

There should be more lines, I just post the first and the last of what is missing.

Successfully loaded Sim Configuration.

DXNTRACE-INIT: Initialized DX11 renderer.

Did you check the box, close the game and then restart?


I did check the box but did ...

Yes that is.

And as you said there is not software interfering.

Well, a bug then I guess.

More info for the devs? Post your dxdiag file. And do you know how to record a video displaying your issue?


Good idea.

Here's an example of what's going on: https://imgur.com/a/fsexRQO you'll notice in ...

Yes, I read it :)

Software may be running in the background and we are not aware.

The event log may indicate it with the setting I wrote above, having seen it many times.

And if it is not what is happening, it is a good idea to exclude it completely. But it is up to you of course.


This is ...

If the cause is some software running, post the exception log after selecting the box "Log debug information to file" in the General tab of the options.


Thanks for all the replies, I appreciate it. Command is really the only game I play, it's my all time favorite and I'm holding out hope this ...

Is this problem?

So, that's what the flashing looks like, although it only happens when zooming, and stops immediately when you let go of the scroll wheel, it also only happens if you scroll semi-quickly. It's not as intrusive ...
