[FIXED][1483] Unit bearing line changes direction

Post by thewood1 »

In this slightly zoomed out pic, note the bearing line on flight Vulture96 is around 90-100 deg.

Note zooming in a little and the bearing line changes to about 10 deg.

Also note that the unit icon states its at 329 deg. It seems to happen to all units to some extent. I'll also point out the game is paused the entire time.

Hello thewood1, I will look into this, have some suspicion on the possible cause.

Just to be sure I'm covering all cases, could I get a save for that state of the scenario?

I might not have one. The update reset my ini file. Autosave was not on. But I can reproduce easily.

Look at blue flight slugger23 in the north. The individual units seem OK as they are ghosted, but the group bearing line is wrong. It will change sometimes as I zoom in and out.

Do bearings change when activating/deactivating "Draw units at true altitude" ?

I have noticed these "bearing changes" when zooming in / zooming out and with that option checked.

This was purely a graphical artifact, bearings remained untouched in the simulation core.
