Wound badge bug?

Hmmm, that is strange.

FYI, I ran some more tests and confirmed that I could get the Iron Cross 2nd Class. Over a few tests, I had 32 units eligible and 5 received it (about 15%, which is within reason for a small sample). Also got a Veteran Driver, Medal for Bravery, Order of the Patriotic War etc. However, I had some issues with the prevalence of a few other medals.

So, medals are working.... BUT after investigating further, we found a bug that could occasionally "skip" a unit after an undamaged unit for medal rewards. It doesn't seem too severe, but if it's the right unit (the one that got all the kills) or it triggers more than oncee it could mess wih the initial medal rewards. This would not mess with tracking the medals and abilties at all, just the initial awarding of the medal.

We're working to fix it now for v1.01d, thanks for the reports on this, there's nothing more annoying than not getting the medals and abilties you deserve so we'll squash this hard.

Thanks... I'll eagerly await the release of the patch then... hope this is the fix for my problem, because it seems that the bug is hitting me hard...

Over 25 runs of the Tech Tank Porn, with 4 units undamaged with at least 2 kills, not a single one was ever awarded ANY medals... only the damaged and recovered ones (where the proportion looked about right for awards).

Thanks for the quick work on this. I've worked in software development and testing, so I know how much of a pain it can be!

That still strikes me as odd though - in my testing, I never saw that complete lack of medals. I was also running Tucheband tests and getting medals, just not as many and of all te kinds I'd expect to see.

In any case, thanks for your help and patience! I'm sorry this affected your campaign. The new v1.01d update will be online later today and I'll be interested to hear if it resolves it for you. In my testing here, the problem seems to be solved.

Yea, it was an inconsistent sort of bug. basically, the loop that processed units for awarding metals would prematurely drop out ONCE it found a unit that had recovered in a group. so all/some/no units in a group may be effected by the bug.

Woo HOO!!!!
 
Fix worked...
 
Thanks
 
Now to go build my next campaign... LOL... German Tank Destroyers....
