[EM4] Los Angeles Mod Bugs

Recommended Posts

I will check into this one as soon as I get a chance to see if it is a glitch or an actual issue that is a bug. Some things we miss, we are only human after all. In all honesty this go-round we added so many new scripts we were bound to miss a good deal of things.

This is not directed at you but please in the future guys note whether the issue was SP or MP, some features will NOT work in MP due to how the game works, not the mod, like even though I had the Ladder truck, I had to let my partner (host) use it to get into the building. It also took one of my FF's and gave it to the host (only one). Some of our additions may also behave in a similar fashion that we have not found yet, but that is the game that is doing that, not the mod. Which is why I ask for you to please note if it is SP or MP.

EDIT*****: I tried to replicate your problem, I sent out the LAPD Charger, the CHP vic, the CHP Charger, the LAPD Vic, the LASD Vic, the Medical Car, and the BATT Chief, all functioned fine for me, so perhaps this was just a glitch with your machine, if you can be more specific about what exactly you did but every vehicle I sent out and called an additional unit from off the map functioned correctly. Perhaps with more details as to exactly what you are doing to cause this we may find the cause but the vehicles I ordered were purchased and came off the map and every single one of them functioned as they were supposed to for me.

I think this is a bug,if you use the bat chief to call a police car form off map,when you goto exit the police from that car as in double click the police car,they wont get out,this i have only noticed since 1.8,and if you call the police car that is above the police SUV you get the same issue,you just have to select each person in the car to get them out,it ok i can handle this,just thought i wud say,it not real important for it to be looked at as i know you guys have lots to do,was really wondering if anyone else had this happen

It happens sometimes, but in your case I knew it was SP due to the fact you were calling units from off the map, to prevent people from being resource hogs and spending everyone's money we disabled the ability to buy new vehicles in MP:) Unfortunately some of these other bugs people are reporting lack adequate information to try to run down what might be the potnetial cause. In your case I think it was just a glitch, but reinstalling might help. I tried several different cars all at once spread across the map and everyone of them delievered what they are designed to do (I know this because the car I manually sent had 1 occupant, the ones ordered came with two so that gave away which was which). Your "bug" you found was well-explained and that made it relatively easy to troubleshoot because you were kind enough to try to be as detailled as possible. But should the problem come up again please give me the EXACT unit that you're having problems with so I can see if there is a catalyst that can cause this bug. We honestly have gotten lucky, most of the bugs are game-related but when it comes to the scripting end, one minor syntax error and you'll wreck the script, which is why I don't touch them:)

I hope reinstalling it fixes your problem but if not just try to explain exactly what unit you sent out and what conditions were going on, it is possible lag caused it, I am running the Standard Mod 1.8 with the Patch only, no submods so if you are running a sub-mod it is possible that the submod currently is incompatible with the new version and any applicable changes we've made. They are trying to get caught up but we're all busy lately and doing the best we can.

I hope it was just a game glitch though for your sake so that you can use the function.

Take care,

mk

Delete your temporary internet files from your browser and try to download it again, it happens sometimes, for whatever reason the file doesnt download properly.

Got a glitch playing the last campaign mission (LA Mod's) where upon sending the rescue dog to find buried victims, the dog fell thru the second floor of the terminal and was stuck with his head halfway out of the side of the airport terminal, comical glitch, but i don't know if its a "fixable" bug...

@M-Trucker do you mean the HAZARD lights or the emergency lights on the vehicle, we also ran into a glitch where the Hazards wouldnt come on for me, but the host could see them online, whihc is why I asked if it is SP or MP to clarify at the beginning of the bug to help us analyze causes. I will check this one out if you can clarify it for me.

I had the same essentail deal happen with a firefighter, he got stuck in the wall, i think it's a game glitch inside sometimes where units do bad things, so I doubt we can fix it until we figure out how it's breaking the pathing rules, the dogs tend to roam randomly really so chances are it went somewhere it wasnt suposed to, sorry bud.

Not sure this is a bug. but in multi-player la mod it gets near imposable to respond to any calls on the map due to extremely high people and vehicle traffic blocking up the streets. This typically happens 20min real time into the mp game.

My guesses here would be that it is either lag from the host to the other players or the other potential cause is that you either park vehicles for standby in the path of people or vehicles causing them to get backed up and due to that their attempt to find a new path is causing further lag. Same thing occurs sometimes with the "patrol" script, the vehicles will create a blockade at an intersection. You want to make sure you don't have too many vehicle patrolling and that those you put on "standby" are put somewhere that they won't obstruct traffic flow of any kind. Other than that it would either be a glitch in the game (common in MP) or lag that is causing it. We played a trial run for 2 hours without anything going horribly wrong. We did have that all-famous shooter that shoots at a door or a wall issue online once or twice in other trials we did, but that's the game not us:)

I was playing Emergency 4 Deluxe, doing the deluxe mission where you go to an area that went through an earthquake, and when I tried to unload the bulldozer from the truck that carries it, it wouldn't unload. I tried several times in different places and have restarted the game and reinstalled the mod to try to get it to work, but it still doesn't work.

Hi guys just want to say thanks for a great mod!

Also, don't know whether this has been documented but just wanted to let you know:

Mission 07: Police chase ends in tragedy [POSSIBLE BUG]

I don't know if if its a result of my execution of the mission but after transporting all of the injured including the suspect from the vehicle it says I haven't transported both perpetrators to hospital?! Is this a bug or am I missing something?

Cheers,

GG

I found something. I had a hazmat call (dead birds), I sended the hazmat truck.

I picked up the birds. But I still had contaminated people spread across the park, so I caught one men, and decontaminated him. While decontaminating I went to the location of another person, but when the truck stopped, the hazmat fire fighter and the man didn't came out of the vehicle.

So I tried to send the hazmat truck to the firestation, and got the message: The ambulance has transports, it will go to hospital... AND the message: The helipad is ocupied ... and the helicopter that I had on the helipad flew home.

That's the point!!! there was no ambulance... I was using the hazmat truck (that can be parked at firestation nr 2)

Hey guys, I am not having any luck with this gated wye. I am not sure if it is what I am doing or if it could be a bug. I'll give you the steps I take when using the gated wye. When I respond to fire that has spread quickly and farther from the roadway, I put up the gated wye to go farther. Anyways, I put out the wye and attached fire hoses to it until fire was out then I detached hoses and picked up the gated wye but for some reason, the gated wye was picked up but I couldn't reel in the hose because it went straight on the ground and it can't get picked up when its on the ground. So, now I can't move my fire truck from the scene due to the fire hose being attached. How can I fix this and Is there a certain distance I can only go on the wye?

Any help is much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Right now, I don't have much time to respond to all the bugs because of personal issues, but I've checked the possible HAZMAT bug reported by AFEM and there is a small mistake in the script. When you press the 'Go to fire station' command while there is a civilian inside, the game thinks it's an ambulance which should go to the hospital. Although I've never seen the problem with civilians not coming out of the truck after decontamination.

I was playing the VIP Escort mission, and on one of the Secret Service SUVs the "Empty Vehicle" command wouldn't work. This happened more than once and I was usually playing the mission for over 40 minutes before I would try to use the command.
That shouldn't happen. Is the command greyed out or does nothing happen when you press it?

That should work in (Deluxe) freeplay, but I will check it out. I am almost certain it should work though.

There are a few known problems with the wye after trying to pick it up. A floating hose with nozzle remains and you can't do anything with it. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to fix it. This problem shouldn't occur everytime you try to pick it up, it happens maybe 1 out of 15 times. It also seems to happen randomly.
