Summary0000427: Wings get assigned to different wings (very strange)
DescriptionIn a cutscene mission, i was curious as to why there was stilll fighting going on, so i pressed F3 to see who was there. I had Beta1-4 vanish about a minute prior to when i pressed F3, and i KNOW that they were no longer in the mission. Apparently however, four hostile bombers got listed under Beta. Beta was friendly when they vanished. Alpha 1-3 also vanished, but they had no problems...
Steps To ReproduceI've no idea...
Additional InformationPhreak's most recent inf build

Just found more... At the time of the second picture, the Cronin has been destroyed (yet it goes under Alpha), and Cria, Luna, and Terra should have jumped out by then (though i didn't check).

You know, I had the same thing happen to me this week... in RETAIL. :o Never happened before.

Can you shutdown and restart your computer, do a memory cleanup, defrag etc., and see if it happens again?

Which mission was it?

I need to be able to reproduce this in order to fix it.

It was the same one - one i'm working on for Inferno... I don't recall any other specific missions i've seen it happen in.

Well, post a link to the mission in the internal, then post a link to that thread here.

Is it reliably reproduceable, or is it random?

seemed very random at the time, as i was unable to produce it on demand...

hm... mantis doesn't like bookmarks in urls, so you'll have to copy paste that whole line...

this should be listed as a gameplay bug - not opengl. Looking at it, it seems very strange, should try it with a newer build and see if its still broken.

It happened with retail, and I haven't since been able to reproduce it. I'm not sure what to make of this.

I'll reopen it if I notice it again.
