Gunfire graphics in wrong direction?
Posted: Sun Jan 05, 2014 1:46 pm
Hello,
I found an unusual situation in a recent game where the gunfire graphics (i.e., the white exclamation marks of the shells in flight) don't seem to point in the correct direction.

The NATO task force is engaging the Soviet Task Force with a SAM in surface mode, and you can see that they are also sending out gunfire in the direction of the task force. However, the flight path of the shells makes it look like they are trying to engage their outgoing missiles.
The WarPac ships do start to receive shellfire in the next few seconds, so I suspect this is some sort of graphics bug with the shellfire, rather than a case where the ships are actually shooting at their missiles, but it is curious all the same.
If you have a moment could you take a look?
Thanks very much,
AndrewJ
