Title: Spinning Space Stations of Doom - WiH Act3 M05
Post by: Lykurgos88 on November 12, 2013, 07:08:05 am: Ok, this might be a game breaking bug in the mission "Her Finest Hour". As soon as the game starts, some ships and stations start to spin and warp around, destroying smaller ships and failing the mission soon after. Same kind of spinning happened too in the "Everything is permitted" mission, but it wasn't as bad and I managed to scan the Comm of the station to get encryption code, even though the whole thing was moving all the time.

But this one is just impossible to beat. I can't do anything before Carthage escapes.

See the madness here:

My parameters:

Post by: BritishShivans on November 12, 2013, 08:53:05 am: It is. I thought the spinning stuff was fixed, but apparently it isn't. And TBH - unless the SCP team cannot absolutely preserve the bug in a way that lets us keep it without breaking the game/breaking other things - I want to see it stay. It's hilarious to watch. :lol:

Yeah, that is not going to happen.

Post by: Lykurgos88 on November 12, 2013, 01:28:18 pm: The debug version crashes as soon as the mission starts. The error seems to be the same as in the other thread (taken from log-file):

Code: [Select]
ASSERTION: "dock_list == NULL" at object.cpp:157 dock_list should have been cleared already! Int3(): From d:\fso\scp bp\code\globalincs\windebug.cpp at line 1040
This spinning and warping seems to affect ONLY stations and ships that are in the "Docked" state, so there must be some correlation here with the odd behaviour.

EDIT: Here is a longer version as well directly taken from the debugger:
