[4.0 CoH] Game Crashes after HQ Teleport - Special case but fix in a future build.

Post by Raevyan » Tue, 6. Apr 21, 14:19

Hi,

i did a small experiment yesterday which ended with a game crash after HQ Teleport/teleporting to the HQ. It's in a very special spot. And even Boso Ta says, it's in a suitable spot (might destroy some ships but oh well).

Link to save file:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/18ML35O ... sp=sharing

Instructions:
Talk to Boso Ta and use mass teleport to teleport the HQ. In owned property list under Deployables scroll to the button and select the "Special HQ Location" beacon. A few seconds after the teleport the game crashes. The game does not crash, when initiating the teleport and teleporting somewhere else. But as soon as you teleport to the HQ, it crashes.
The "Geometric Owl" ship is about 50km away from the Beacon in a save place, if you wanna have a look where the beacon is :)

Oi! That spot is not allowed :roll:

This rather creative crash will be fixed in an upcoming version.

Note: 5km further and the HQ teleport works fine and does not result in a crash and will put it about 2km before the Game Over barrier :)

PS: The map does not work great at this spot either.

I'm not sure the map was intended to work well at that spot :P

Also, as things stand, it'll still be a bad place to move to as you're likely to die as soon as you undock. Just thought I'd throw out that warning.

The whole purpose of this was to try and kill Boso Ta.

PS: well if I move about 5km away from that beacon I’m about 600m before the barrier of death when undocking xD
PPS: can confirm you checked the Torus as invalid location :)
