I thought you'd know the map well enough to know that you're actually quite a bit higher than the target you're shooting, hence it explains it perfectly well. I checked it just to be sure, but it's definitely that. If you go a bit down the slope, then you can suddenly hit them properly again. They are therefore definitely caused by the same bug, which is fixed. The turret problem you're mentioning is the exact same thing: you can only do impact damage, not splash damage. Impact damage on non building objects is not bugged; it works everywhere. That's also the reason why you only do about half damage when shooting down from the bridge: you do impact damage but the splash damage is not done.
Same story applies to hourglass.

would it not have been better to release all the important stuff a year earlier( antichet, bluescreen, shooting through logo, wf glitch) then release it in another 4 months with a bunch of uselsss stuff/less important fixes?

Code is interconnected and would be impossible to release one without the other. In programming it is best to have the code interconnected because it speeds up the process and is more efficient in runtime.

i wont pretend to understand that but i dont get a few things. why people are even debating about pointfix, why are useless bugs being fixed at the same time as really important things like bluescreening and antichet. i dont really care if i fall through the hand on field or if i dont spawn in the barracks on city, or if i warp when i scope.
i just think things couldve been done better if certain bugs were fixed first but whatever i guess.

You can start testing as soon as we have a "stable" beta.

Until you get banned off a really laggy server for using it, although there are no rules banning its use. I don't need to name the server because everyone knows about which server I'm talking.

Legend has it, that long long ago before the tiberum wars, Havoc and Sakura conceived a love child in the backseat of a GDI Hum-vee. 9 months later, IsItInYou popped out and headshot them both, then nuked their refinery.
how did the baby get a gun?! rgGh probably
so the baby spectated both his parents and drove home from the C&C_Hospital.mix in the humvee parked outside?!
3 wisemen came bearing gifts: credits, tiberium, and murr, whatever the FUCK that is. IsItInYou was nailed to the obelisk, but respawned 3 days later and performed miracles.

A couple features added:
Prevent reloading if your clip is full
Change script zones so you can now associate a preset (e.g. soldier or vehicle) with it (this will be used later for the naval yard building controler)
Add a new script zone type for naval purchase
Make NeutralVechiclePointsFix tt.ini keyword work again
Fix an issue with save games
Add new tt.ini keyword to control the points to credits multiplier (i.e. how many credits you get for each point). We may also make this available via server configs in order to allow server owners to change this (as one part of a possible alternative to running with the "points bug") although nothing has been decided yet.
Add new stuff so that scope data can be stored in the weapon definition itself (instead of the scopes.cfg that is used now)

This also indirectly fixes the bug where you can get the reload sound to play without the animation if you spam-press "R".

jonwil, I have no idea if anyone else has brought this up before. But is there something in scripts 3.4.4 that causes more warp? Really I only notice it when someone is free falling or jumping. Their movement pattern is not smooth. For example if someone is up high in an orca and dies, they sort of warp spot to spot til they hit the ground. This doesn't happen in 2.9.2 or previous versions what so ever. If I get a chance I'll take a video of this if you don't know what I mean.

Either your tank will die if you're in one, or you will die if you aren't. The bay itself is the only place where this is supposed to happen, I guess it doesn't line up properly so if you're too close you can lose your tank or die. Islands can be one of the worst ones IMO
