| Summary | 0021277: Guard posts don't release stored units if they die instantly | ||||
| Description | If a guard post has stored guards and manages to be destroyed in one frame, stored units don't deploy at all. The code that calls the function to deploy guards is in PlanetFaction, and it will deploy the units if: 1. There's enemy ships on the current planet 2. Any enemy ship is within a certain distance, or the guard post has taken damage Ships that are completely destroyed in one step are extremely likely to do neither of these however. The current order for frames goes as follows: 1. Check if we need perSecond logic a. Do per second logic (*calls guard post unloading*) 2. Planet Combat Step a. Ship Step (Movement, Bubbleshield Size) b. Flag dead ships for removal c. Shot Step (Move Shot, Do Damage (sets ToBeRemoved if it kills) 3. Remove Flagged Entities So there is a 1 frame window where a guard post can still release its units if its killed in 1 frame, but only if the next frame calls the perSecond logic. Possible solutions: Check for stored guard post contents during step 3 (Remove Flagged Entities) Check for stored guard post contents when doing combat death (step 2c) | ||||

Thank you! * Now when a unit dies, if it has reinforcements inside it for whatever reason, it should dump them all out immediately. Previously if you managed to kill a guard post full of reinforcements in under 1 second, then the guards would all die in the fire of their parent. Now they go free and attack you, as was always intended. |
