[kovarex] [0.16.0] When there are multiple forces, ghosts connect with enemy belts

Post by procrastinator_diedz »

Sometimes when loading a 0.15 map in 0.16 can cause corners of belts to glitch out. see attachment

Post a save with the player next to such an instance when loaded in 0.16.0 please.

Also, on the picture, it almost seems like the belt has south direction (instead of north)

Multiple Forces/Belts

Post by Pirion »

When there are multiple forces, blueprints connect up to belts and cause odd behavior.

Screenshot below is Admin force belt blueprint into Player belt

Mine is not related to upgrading. Mine is corner glitched when another force places the belt.

I know we've had issue with cross force blueprints before - but this one opens PVP up to major grief in a way that would make it unplayable.

Not sure if you want mine as it isn't an upgrade issue, but here it is.

Loewchen the issue is very clear and easy to replicate, as twinsen said it is a bug and should be reported.

Steps to replicate:

Place 3 belts in a L shape.
Switch forces
Place a ghost belt against the L shape making it a ┴ shape.
Switch back to the previous force

The belts now look like they shouldn't be able to.

So? It is assigned and in Bug Reports, what should I do?

Fixed for 0.16.7

Code: Select all

Ghost belt entities don't connect to other (ghost/or non-ghost) belt entities if they don't have the same force. This prevents ghost belt of other force (invisible to the player) from changing the shape of the belt.
