  Known Issues

  Game

  • Incorrect faction player count in the Deploy Menu

  • Players sometimes cannot join already existing groups on the server after they connect

  • All vehicles will disappear after 10 minutes of not using them

  • Some buildings/compositions can be built without a proper obstruction check making these buildings/compositions unusable 

  • Deleting objects/fortifications does not reimburse supplies when it was built from a supply truck but deleted from the camp's freebuilding mode

  • Exploding on own placed mines while in a vehicle counts as Friendly Fire on DS

  • Screen effects (from blood loss for example) are displayed over UI elements such as chat

  • Radiofrequency defaults to 32 (or 38 for Soviets) no matter the group

  • Respawning on the radio in the vehicle will not allow players to use gadgets

  • AIs can teleport behind the wall if they are not able to get there normally

  • Players can get stuck in a tripod turret if they fall into an unconscious state and get healed

  • Players in gunner position can't capture bases

  • Characters in the turrets sometimes start drifting away creating a surrealistic portrait of a man with really long arms holding a turret

  Game Master

  • Deleting all dead bodies and destroyed vehicles with the GM can lead to the kick of all GMs from the server

    • Workaround: Delete entities in smaller batches

  • Entity filters in GM do not work properly

  • Using a lightning strike with GM that has a character placed in the scenario will not do anything

    • GM needs to delete his character or change the keybinding for the lightning strike

  Workshop

  • After enabling a previously disabled add-on, included missions are not displayed in the "Scenarios" tab until the game is restarted

  • Xbox: The player isn't informed about full addon storage

  • If the player reports a mod and tries to join the server that has that mod reported, he is unable to progress toward the dialog that shows up on the screen

    • In order to join the server, he has to open the Workshop tab and cancel the report from it

  ---

  Warning: 

  • Server performance can be greatly reduced when replicating a high number of characters (players + AIs), and this issue becomes more prominent with increased limits, making it difficult to handle 128 players and 200+ AIs.

    • Playing Everon Conflict with 128 players is not recommended, while Arland might be more feasible due to its smaller size and fewer AI spawns. Pure PvP without AIs could be a potential alternative for larger player counts.
