[FIXED] Issue w/ Weapon Release Authorization Settings

[AlexinCT]

I am not sure if this is a behavioral change I am not aware of or in the game, or if this is an actual bug, but in the past when I set weapon release authorization distances in the screen for weapons, they stayed after clicking the reset affected units/missions buttons. I confirmed the choices by closing the options specific weapon(s) I set ranges for or the entire screen and reopening them.


Now however when I close the screen and come back, the selected values are gone and the units/missions don't seem to be following the selections.

Any feedback on this issue? Am I the only one seeing this problem with values entered not being retained?

Hi Alex

Isn't hitting the reset buttons setting them back to their default values?

If you change the values and don't press the reset buttons do they change?

Thanks for the response BDukes.

If you look at the image I embedded, the reset buttons don't reset the selections to blank, but reset the affected units or missions impacted by the Doctrine changes to follow those selections. I was doing this at the global level (from the game toolbar menu with no unit selected so it would apply to all units/missions, in this case as a side doctrine), but confirmed this behavior persists even if I try to change the setting for a mission or a single unit. I know this functionality worked to allow me to set ranges for various weapons in the past because I by default always reset some of the global rules/doctrines mission EMCON settings, and weapon ranges this way before I start any and all missions, specifically so I can make sure I control the options. I have been seeing this issue since the 1147.36 release. I was asking because I was wondering if the functionality was changed (the values are not show as entered but are retained and used by the affected units) or if this was really a bug.

On the off chance you were correct that not clicking the reset would keep the values, I tried that option and can confirm they are lost anyway (with or without the reset). I also remain unsure if the actual selection is saved and enforced, even though the value is lost on the screen, but have not been able to successfully test and verify this. Hence my ask. Maybe the DEVs had some information I was missing, or if this was a bug, became aware of it and could address it. While this doesn't ruin game play I am enough of a control freak, I guess, that I kind of want to know I have the ability to make these selections to affect my play.

Thanks for any and all's efforts to clarify this for me!
