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? :o

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

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




(p.s.: Now I've got to remember how to update Thread Tags... This will be fun.)
