Searchlight resets to default position [1.200.030]

uwulele shared this bug 2 years ago
Solved

Game version: 1.200.030

Problem: Searchlight resets to default position after game save and reload.

How to reproduce:

  • Create a new empty world creative game
  • Make a simple grid consisting of battery, cockpit and a searchlight
  • Enter the cockpit (F)
  • Open the control panel (K)
  • Select searchlight
  • Disable idle movement
  • Press "Control" button to enter first person view
  • Manually point the searchlight somewhere using your mouse
  • Exit the first person view (F)
  • Exit the cockpit (F)
  • Save the game
  • Exit to the main menu
  • Load the saved game

Expected behavior: Searchlight should be pointing in the direction it was pointing when the game was saved.

Actual behavior: Searchlight is pointing in default direction it was pointing when it was initially placed.

Searchlights are turrets and turrets do this too and they should do this, it is the only way other than changing their color to get them to reset their position. Unless of course Keen wants to give us a "return to default" position tool bar option, which I would love. So that when the turret's don't track and fire bug on Keen servers occurs (reported but not acknowledged), I can reset their position and dumb fire them with the shoot once or shoot on toggle.

I actually experienced this the other day. It's was mildly amusing to watch at first then it got to be too much.
