Summary0001974: $Muzzleflash doesn't work if $trail defined or in salvo mode
DescriptionBasically if you define $trail then the muzzle flash will not show up. Removing the $trail entries from the weapon produced a muzzle flash. That was when I noticed that if the turret is in salvo mode only one muzzle flash will show for the salvo instead of for each fire point.
Additional Information3.6.11 Diaspora build dated 7/27.

After quick checks with updated trunk and both mediavps and retail data it seems neither 'salvo mode' nor trails have anything to do with muzzleflashes.

Something in the code seems to be borking even retail flak muzzleflashes.. though i need to verify the data still.

OK that makes some sense at least for the salvo part I did have it set to flak at that point in testing.

This issue seems to be related to kara's team loadout changes (at least on the first glance). Assigning this to kara

Seems like this 'used_weapons[j] = 0;' would be causing the issues but it probably was placed there for a reason.

http://svn.icculus.org/fs2open/trunk/fs2_open/code/weapon/weapons.cpp?r1=5223&r2=5237

For now temporary fix for this issue is to set game load all weapons for the missions via launcher (troubleshooting tab).

Should be fixed now. At least if the cause is what Wanderer said it was.
