ACU moves by itself!

Postby discoverer2k4 » 30 Jul 2012, 20:36

Hi,

i'm not really sure whether there was a button I pressed or whatever but it happened several times in that game and (I guess) in the game before. My ACU moved for example after the upgrade to tech 2 into the opponents units...!
But I gave my ACU not the command to move, attack or patrol.
As I were trying to build up T2 PD it was the same! :-(

Please see in my replay...

BR,

It's probably because you attacked a unit with your ACU, then lost sight of the unit, and then your ACU automatically resumed attack order on the unit when you got the unit in radar or vision radius again. This behaviour should be fixed in a update very soon.

It's not a feature but a bug.

And it's fixed in 3617.

It use to automatically cancel acu upgrade and move. Was really annoying.

Are you sure it is fixed in 3617? My sera ACU was moving by itself into enemy units on multiple occasions on isis. Almost got killed by T3 pd :)

Latest patch is 3618. Only time will tell i guess.

Then it's not something we did.

Post a replay.

I remember someone saying that to me once, but he was using an attack order to move instead of a simple move...
