Description: When accessing the Tutorial/Academy in any manner, the wrong BattleGrid (River City's) is loaded along with the Tutorial/Academy Map, when it should be the Tutorial/Academy BattleGrid loading with the Map instead.

Location: Tutorial/Academy

Reproduction Rate: 100% -- This is ALWAYS Reproducible!!!

Steps to Reproduce:

• Access the Tutorial/Academy in ANY manner. The wrong BattleGrid (River City's) will be loaded along with the Tutorial/Academy Map, instead of the real Tutorial/Academy BattleGrid.

What Should NOT Happen: River City's BattleGrid loading along with the Tutorial/Academy Map.

What Should Be Happening: The correct Tutorial/Academy BattleGrid loading along with the Tutorial/Academy Map.


Comments: Tripped over this while trying to learn how better to handle a Mech that I designed. It might be a good idea to get this fixed by the next Major Monthly Patch at the latest, perhaps? I bet it is really unsettling for New Recruits to look for one area feature on the BattleGrid, only to find it missing in the actual place.

UPDATE: Bug still present after 1.4.85's HotFix #1... I hope you'll be able to fix it in the Monthly Patch Cycle?

Unburying the thread and sending it back to page one, so the issue can be repaired... Beginning to wonder if I put this in the wrong board area...

Did you send an e-mail to support ? Safer bet than posting here.

I'm going to send a report on this thread and have it moved to "Academy Bug Reports"... I hope the Moderators are actually keeping an eye on their reports queue.

Sorry, Outlook started discarding my notifications - I'll make sure this gets logged.

Thought things were rather quiet.

I appreciate your checking in and getting this on the stack to fix, Dave. A helpful thought came to mind... You might try using Sticky Notes in Windows, if you have it. (Don't know which Windows version you have... Currently got Windows 7 here...) That way, you would have a small nudge to check both this board and Patch Feedback once a week, just in case the notification system can't be fixed up. I tend to pop by with Bug Reports in Patch Feedback from time to time in order to help this game not get full of bugs.


BTW, thanks to draiocht as well, for getting this in view of you!

Hello again... It's been several months now without seeing this get fixed, so I'm giving this thread a poke. I'm still seeing the River City Normal Map while in the Tutorial Areas, instead of the appropriate and proper River City Tutorial Map. I don't know who keeps your patch work from reaching the distribution to users, but they need to be smacked in the face and told to wake up.

Dangit... I have got to watch my terminology. Anywho, I've fixed the appropriate words in the above quote of myself, placing them in bold, so anyone confused can see what I meant. -.-

Dave Forsey, I'm posting a happy update for you... As of Patch 1.4.142 on 2017-11-14, this disturbing little issue is now Fixed. I am very thankful for this, as it was previously disorienting to look at the MiniMap/BattleGrid and see something other than what is actually there. I'll be certain to post a happy note in the 1.4.142 Patch Notes thread!

~D. V. "Thanks! The Maps are right once more!" Devnull
