Map illumination breaks after restarting mission #5408

Closed yarhooty closed 6 years ago

yarhooty commented 7 years ago

Arma 3 Version: 1.72 (stable / rc / dev) CBA Version: 3.4.0 (stable / dev + commit hash) ACE3 Version: 3.10.2 (stable / dev + commit hash)

Mods:

- CBA_A3
- ace
- RHS
- CUP

Description: Upon restarting a single-player mission, or even loading a save, the map illumination feature does not seem to work at all. There is no dimming at night, and flashlights+map tools cannot be used.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Play a single-player mission, such as Dynamic Recon Ops, at night.
  2. Verify the map is dimmed.
  3. Restart the mission or load a previous save.
  4. Observe that the map is no longer dimmed.

Where did the issue occur?

Update: After removing NIArms Core (which I forgot to include) the issue MAY have been resolved

yarhooty commented 7 years ago

This issue continues to occur in Dynamic Recon Ops

To make sure, does this happen with only CBA and ACE on an unscripted mission? If not, then what is the minimum requirement of mods and / or what mission does this occur?

So this is happening on my side for the longest time also. I just tested this again with only CBA3 and ACE (both steam versions). If you start a mission, make a savegame and load that savegame from within the mission (without quitting to arma's scenario or main menu or quitting arma 3 alltogether), map illumination still works. But as soon as you quit the mission and resume it from arma's scenario menu, map illumination stops working. Its a really nice and immersive feature and it would be great to have this working even when finishing a mission the next day or whatever.

And yes, i have retested this on a non scripted mission, i.e. a unit night scenrio made in the editor.

EDIT: same behaviour in multiplayer. When you resume a previously hosted mission the autobrightness stops working also. Btw, dslyecxi's STUI mod (latest steam version) has the same issue going on.
