Preview turn reveals enemy positions?

[Gudgey]

Hi All,

I was playing against the AI yesterday and before the first turn resolution, selected the Preview Orders option from the menu (something I usually forget to do) and the units moved across the map revealing the enemy positions![X(]

Is this supposed to happen or have I found another bug? If it is correct then it seems like a huge cheat to me, especially if it does the same in a multi-player game.

(Speaking of bugs are we ever going to see the 1.2 patch?)

Regards.

(Sorry, just saw the post about the patch I'll give it a whirl and see if this is still a problem)

Gudgey,

Glad you found the 1.12 update. I need to put a more global message saying it is up and hopefully Matrix will announce it on the front page at some point here too. As for the preview turn it sounds like something got broken and no one caught it. I'll admit I never use the feature but should be testing it. [:(] I'll check the 1.12 release today and let Rob know so we can correct this if it is the case.

Thanks for the info!

Thanks Capn,

I think your right about making it more obvious that the patch is available, I wouldn't have known it was there if I hadn't seen Emillio's post, and then it took some digging around to get it!
I am just about to start a game so will feedback on the SOP issue and anything else I find.


Cheers,

Gudgey

We did verify the the preview bug. I hate it when we miss something obvious like that. It was working fine so we did not look at it duing the last couple of updates but we must have broken something in there. The good news is that it has been fixed as of a few minutes ago. We are going to wait a couple of days to see if anything else pops out of the woodwork with 1.12 before releasing 1.13 to correct the preview bug.

Let us know if you find anything else.

Hey Cap'n,
 
The SOP fix works a treat, makes a big difference as well, two of my four recon units actually survived! I just played the Soviet Tank Rush scenario as NATO, even with the SOP fix the computer gave me a good scrap, hats off to you for the job on the AI.

Gudgey,

Great to hear. Let us know if you see anything else acting up.

Thanks.
