When playing in multiplayer rally flag can't be dismissed by clicking on small red flag above minimap, the red flag is simply not there. Its kind of big annoynace because minions are usually all over your flag so I have to move flag somewhere else first and then right click to dismiss it.


I'm pretty sure its only related to clients and not host but I'm going to verify it later today.

Game Version:
Steam Public
Platform:
Windows

Unlikely to affect hosts. Passing through for review thanks for the report! :)

Hey I just tested this with two PCs in our office and it works fine for all flags for both client and server.
Here a screenshot when I play client:

But you not even got the red cancel icons?
Maybe we fixed this issue internally but we did not put the fix into a new public hotfix or patch yet.
However this one seems utterly important so I would wonder if we wouldn't.
All I can see it works from my end, so we may try to get this hotfixed soon.
Can you confirm the issue still persists in current public version?

Yes it's still missing. I dont get any red flag icon when I use rally flag as client in multiplayer.

We must have fixed that internally meanwhile but not pushed a new build containing this fix.

I know that we had this bug before 1.4 release, but I will look at it on this WE.
AFAIK every match I played as Client it worked fine.

Perhaps it's OS related?

I use windows 10 64 bit without anniversary update if that matters.


Honestly, I get alot of bugs playing as client in multiplayer. Most of them dont appear until 15 minutes+ into the game when there is alot going on already so trying to replicate them at beginning of the game can be tricky.


I also ecounter bugs that are supposed to be fixed already (bugs that were mentioned in patch notes). Stefan suggested that my game might be corrupted so I am going to reinstall it and let you know later if that changed anything.

At least the cancel rally bug is an old one we had some months ago and it should really be fixed.
Now I wonder if you are maybe checked into an old beta branch? (Properties -> Betas)

Can you attach your output_log.txt after triggering the problem? (Before restarting the game)
See: http://brightrockgames.userecho.com/topics/118-how-to-submit-a-bug-ticket/
So we can see two things:
1) Which game version you have.
2) If any error occured causing the UI issue.

I reinstalled the game right now but I checked earlier output logs I posted in previous bug reports and I think they confirm I was on the last version of the game


engine version: 5.4.0f3 (a6d8d714de6f)
