| Summary | 0002293: Destroyed/departed AI showing up as present in wingmen display. | ||||
| Description | Semi-random, but happens fairly regularly when wingmen depart, more often than when they're destroyed in combat. When wingmen are destroyed/depart, the wingmen display (ie, the Alpha through Epsilon wing "dots") sometimes still shows them as being present. That is, the dot remains filled in when it should be blanked because they have either departed or been destroyed. | ||||

I remember experiencing this issue on 3.6.12. It always seemed to occur when a lot of your wingmen would be destroyed or warp out at the same time. I tested with the attached mission multiple times and couldn't reproduce. |

Assuming it no longer occurs then. Someone can reopen if that's not the case. |

Reopening per Yarn. |

I think I figured out how to reproduce the bug. It appears to happen only if time compression is set to x4 or higher. It happens randomly, but the higher the time compression, the more likely it is to happen. At x16 compression and higher, it almost always occurs. This seems to happen only with departed wingmen, never destroyed wingmen. It also doesn't seem to matter how many wingmen are involved; it can happen even if only one wingman departs. When it does happen, the wingmen in question do appear in the event log as departed, and SEXPs triggered by their departure are still triggered. So this appears to be strictly a HUD issue. This happens as far back as 3.6.10 and possibly earlier, so this is certainly not a recent bug. |

Added a patch. Bug is mostly hidden during normal gameplay without time compression because of a timer in the update function that is based on gametime. |

Fix committed to trunk@9535. |
