Funky Spawn Bug

Post by SBF_Dann_Boeing »

You know that bug in the game where you spawn as a hero, and then cannot switch to other team until you are a normal unit and then respawn a second time?

Well I am having a similar bug, but you cannot play on the IMPS team period, not even from the beginning of the match. You can select it, but you always spawn rebels. I have a terrible feeling this has to do with the fact that I have uber mode on with 400 units on each team. I have another mode that is identical except its not on uber mode... and it works perfectly. But...I was planning on adding 600+ units on each team... Is that a little much? Nothing shows up in BFront2.log

Oh yes. You should never go over 200 per team. I'm suprised it even runs.

Going over 300 units or so tends to cause that kind of problem. In my experience, at least.

Ive had that before. I switch teams, and then change units, and then it turns back into the opposite team. Its just a bug. It dissapears usually after several switches!
