Minor visual bug?

Postby Helcaraxe » 12 Jan 2012, 00:21

Hello all,

Absolutely loving FAF - thanks to the team for your hard work. This feels like a great time to be a SupCom player.

One minor visual bug that I've encountered with 3610: there's no movement animation on the Seraphim Mobile T1 AA. It just slides around with all four legs on the floor. I can't reproduce this with Vanilla FA 3603, where it walks around as expected, moving each of its legs. Has anyone else experienced this?

I think it is intended to avoid critical bug where the AA tank didn't fire from one of its weapons while moving, which reduced it's dps in half

i have never experienced or seen the bug that you are taking about. and even if its true a better fix would be to double its damage but only while its moving so that it could keep its movement animation.

Okay, good to hear it's not just me.

Hydro's idea sounds like a neat fix - I always thought it was one of the better movement animations, so shame to lose it.

No biggie, though :D

How do you people have time to notice that the legs on a t1 mobile aa don't move? And after you notice why do you care?

Straight answers to straight questions:

1. I noticed whilst watching a replay;

2. Like I said above, I care because I liked the animation, but it's not a big deal and now that I know it's necessary to fix a bug with the way the unit plays, I think it's the right call.
