View Full Version : Health/armour reset bug

Last night my friend and I both kept having our health/armour reset to previous (damaged) levels after healing/repairing.

This happened again and again with my health being set back to flashing red after using a medical kit (the kit is used up, I go to max health - then after a split-second I'm back to nearly dead). Also happened with medic healing, but less - would just reset a unit or so of health healed, which could then be topped up again.

It also happened several times when people repaired my friend's MAX, and happened repeatedly when I was repairing my Scythe (repair a bit, half the armour repaired vanishes again, repeat until eventually healed - but takes a lot longer than normal).

I'm guessing this is some kind of issue with the client getting out of synch with the server - similar to the bug where tank guns failed to fire. I've seen it on and off for months, but last night it was cripplingly bad and made medical kits pointless (doubly annoying since they've only just fixed them not resupplying).

Has anyone else experienced this? Is there any ETA on a fix?

i get a similar bug, in which when i am killed and then i respawn, sometimes my shields are gone and flashing red with the alarm, but as soon as i am injured it comes back to normal, as if i actually had my shields the entire time.

Quite sure this is just a visual bug.

Did you report it in game?

It's best to do this ASAP in game when you have it fresh in mind. Just hit Esc and in the lower left in the menus is the support option. Fill out a small report and it'll go right to the devs. Much better than forums unless your point was to vent a little.

I've had that as well, I found just going to an equipment terminal or Sundy and clicking 'resupply' immediately fixed it.

Good point, I've not reported it in game, I'll definitely do that next time I experience it.
