Can't switch sides ingame

Post by Lorul1 »

Hello I've ran into a problem that I've had for a while, but now I must fix: When I play my map I can pick my side CIS or republic. Republic works fine, but when I select CIS (or tap the blue icon above a clone troopers head) and hit spawn, it spawns from the republic side. It's almost like when I try to change sides in game it changes back. The good news is I think I've found out why. Ive heard that there is a limit of troops that can be spawned in your map until this glitch appears. I think I have over 300 troops on a map at a time, 2000 reinforcement along with 9 selectable units. I know that I'm over the Limit, but I also know that there is a fix to this glitch I've seen maps (such as capital strike),that don't have this glitch and break the limit as well. Dose anyone have a fix to this problem?

This glitch happens to me daily, even on stock missions. I just try it again after I die and it always works.

What didn't work? No solution was provided, because there is no solution - this is a bug that shipped with the stock game.

I hate to break it to you, but Marth and WULF aren't lying to you, there is no way to fix it. It just happens sometimes, whether on custom maps, or regular maps. You're searching for a solution that simply doesn't exist. Sorry :|

EDIT: You see it fixed on custom maps because it happens randomly, it may seem like it doesn't happen on a certain map, but then happens on the next.

EDIT: I have another queston about this Glitch. Where is this switching glich created or located. for example is it created when my custom map being munged, or is it just "born" in my world file or lua. I guess im trying to say, were is this glitch loacated at.
