As long as all players doesn't have their game linked to vanilla, and so don't hear and see videos correctly, desyncs will happens.

If that was correct and a desync still happens, then there is a problem.

[Deering]

We both have vanilla linked. Also just tried stone wall and got a desync halfway through the second objective. Also in both missions we got a desync on beat 1 which in the past has been one person has vanilla linked and one not.

[Ze_PilOt]

Well there is a problem then.

You shouldn't have any desync at all.

OK mission 5.

Code: Select all

Here's the code:

Code: Select all

function M2_Hex5ReloadAndLeaveCheckThread()
    while ScenarioInfo.M2_Hex5Platoon:IsCommandsActive( ScenarioInfo.M2_Hex5LoadToLeaveCommand ) == true do
        WaitSeconds(1)
    end
    #Do Stuff
    ForkThread(M2_ActivateHex5CloakThread)
end

Not sure what it thinks has been destroyed, as Hex5 made it off the map fine, and there wasn't a single enemy unit alive. Also, it triggers as soon as the objective completes. Above it is this code:

Code: Select all

    #Hex5 moves out, heads offmap. Fork thread to check for when his load command is complete, so we can then recloak him.
    ScenarioInfo.M2_Hex5LoadToLeaveCommand = ScenarioInfo.M2_Hex5Platoon:LoadUnits( categories.ALLUNITS )
    ScenarioInfo.M2_Hex5Platoon:MoveToLocation( ScenarioUtils.MarkerToPosition('M2_Hex5_ReturnPoint'), false )
    ScenarioInfo.M2_Hex5Platoon:Destroy()
    ForkThread(M2_Hex5ReloadAndLeaveCheckThread)


Next we have this one:

Code: Select all

Code: Select all

function M3_PlatformsDestroyedObjFail()
    ScenarioInfo.M3_AirPlatformsDestroyed = true
    if ScenarioInfo.M3_VirusUploaded == false then
        ScenarioInfo.M3S1:ManualResult(false)
        ScenarioFramework.Dialogue(ScenarioStrings.SObjFail)
    end
end

Here's the big one though. This triggers on the final objective and prevents the map expanding:

Code: Select all

Code: Select all

import('/lua/ai/AIBehaviors.lua').CDROverchargeBehavior(cdrPlatoon)

The command simply doesn't exist. I tried changing it to CDROverCharge(aiBrain, cdr) which does, but it didn't work. I can confirm that commenting it out completely DOES allow the map to expand fully.
