I saw on the fix list it said, "A fix for C4 disappearing if attached to a vehcle".

Does that also apply to it being attached directly to a character?

I figured yes, but just wanted to clerify because the wording.

Yep, you figured right. The same fix should apply. Smile

Sorry for the list not being entirely clear.

don't want to create a separate topic, but you can detonate remotes using mines or times (right click), example u throw some remotes, buy a sniper (w/e) and can detonate them Dont Get It

Since this thread is about C4 bugs..have you fixed the bug where you throw a timed c4 somewhere (on MCT, for example Razz

) and it cannot be disarmed? Rare bug, but sometimes might even cost a game.
(I'm thinking the C4 for some reason goes inside the object it's thrown on, but not sure..)

That depends on the angle it was thrown on. At some place it is possible to place the C4 under the normal outside skin of the MCT. If you repair it from the same angle it was thrown on, then you can disarm it.

About fixing this, I don't know if it will be done, but I do know that some tt members already talked about this.

I have yet to see a case where you can really not disarm the C4 from a specific angle in the current TT build. It is true that it is very hard to disarm it sometimes though, I can not fully explain this. TT already fixed a bug where the C4 position is not 100% accurate, perhaps that fixes the normal cases, but it might not... It could help if there is some more detailed information, like: does this happen on all MCTs, on one building's MCT or on specific maps (or even combinations of buildings and maps). Is there a way to reproduce it? Does it happen in a LAN/WOL game you host ingame? Does it happen for anything other than a MCT?

Answers to those questions don't necessarily mean it can be fixed, it's not an easy bug to fix, but it can help to find the cause and/or a solution.

Well I can get the timed c4 on the MCT in the Hand on city flying so it cannot be disarmed no matter what angle, first person mode, 3rd person mode.

There's a little thing that looks like glass over the MCT, this was thought to be the cause of C4's getting stuck.
If you need someone to fix the maps then speak to Zunnie.
He's the original core-patch map fix guy, and the dude you need to speak to about fixing this problem.

Yesterday Caveman and I tested some things and I have an idea what the problem is caused by (thanks again Cave Smile

). If what I found yesterday does not happen to be the cause I'll contact Zunnie and ask him whether he has more info. Thanks for the hint. Smile

Not quite as awesome as the fact that the client seems to calculate and send its own data about its own shadow, meaning that if you have wall hacks, and stand in certain places in buildings on some maps, your shadow goes through the wall.

Very Happy
