Missing Ships Test Fix
Following up on the reports people have sent in regarding the bug where enemy ships go missing and players are unable to complete the mission. Looks like some strange error where a collision ends up setting the ship position to NaN (not a number). Not sure what causes this so I implemented a catch where the ship will reposition itself to its last valid location. Hopefully, this will bypass and correct any one-off random accidents... or worst case it will put the ship back into a position where it will immediately go NaN again, please let me know if you see more ships disappearing after this patch.
Other Changes: - friendly warpout radar holograms now remove themselves from radar correctly - fixed mission brief cutoff - fixed local coop PC player not returning target agency to units when no longer controlling them - docked ships no longer require a captain
Ship Report Tool
One of the main bugs I've been trying to track down is where you cannot complete a mission due to a mystery enemy remaining on the map that you cannot find. I have not been able to replicate this on my end making it impossible for me to fix it. I have created a tool that will print out all the ship status to help narrow what might be going on when players encounter it. So, if you run into this issue, there is a new button at the rear of the bridge below the Emergency Exit button to print out a report. This will log the game state and open a File Explorer to the generated text file called "shipreport.txt". Please send this file to me over Discord or email to battlegroupvr@gmail.com Thanks for your help in finding this bug!
