Ammo showing 2000 but only fires 4 or 5
Hi guys.

The last few nightly 3_6_10 builds have had this problem for me when i run with BtRL.

4889 and 4993

Enter the mission fine and the ammo shows 2000 or 3000 depending on mission etc.

Let of a few shots and it only fires 3-5 then the ammo is empty.

Dont know if this is a known bug and i havnt read your info on the mantis thing yet, i will get to it.

Everything is fine on the 4880 nightly build.

Regards.

Aren't you supposed to run BtRL with it's own executable?

If this is a ballistic primaries bug, it ought to show up with the TVWP demo as well. Can anyone verfy?

He's asked previously on the tech help forum over there cause he's had problems with 3.6.9 builds.

3.6.10 should run BtRL just fine anyway, all the features in the BtRL build were added to CVS within weeks of the game being released.

I'm looking at the logs for a cause now. I'd rather find the problem that way than have to run a debug build. BtRL is a ****ing nightmare of warnings in 3.6.10 debug. I'm SO not making that mistake with Diaspora. :D

Yeah. I tracked it down to that commit but then realised that it was TBP game night so I didn't have the chance to actually fix it. :)
