{{Feature|important| '''BUG TRACKER'''


__NOTOC__
The ArmA bug tracker is unavailable at this time.}}
 
==Introduction==
 
Help [[BI]] keep track of important bugs by contributing to this list! Before you begin editing, read over the '''How To Report''' section. Its very important to provide accurate detail by posting reproducing steps, images, movies, and locations of bugged models/graphics.
 
If you have a more detailed bug report that requires more room then makes sense for the '''Biki'''  then go to the [http://www.flashpoint1985.com/cgi-bin/ikonboard311/ikonboard.cgi BIS Forum] and find the current bug thread and post it there.
 
There is a [[Armed Assault: Wish List|wishlist]] for making suggestions to improve Armed Assault, please use this list for those suggestions
 
You should only post bugs about the '''current version'''
 
'''Current ArmA version is:''' ''[1.02]''
 
'''Current Dedicated server version is:''' ''[1.02]''
 
You can find information about the '''1.02''' patch [http://www.flashpoint1985.com/cgi-bin/ikonboard311/ikonboard.cgi?;act=ST;f=72;t=55917 here]
 
The old bug list can be found here [[Armed_Assault:_Bugs_List-version-1.01.5094]].
 
==How to Report==
 
Submitting bugs in a usable format is <u>essential</u>. Your wasting everybody's time if you post something meaningless and there is a good chance your addition will be '''removed''' or '''ignored'''.
 
1. Post in the appropriate section.<br>
2. Always sign your entries by adding <nowiki>~~~</nowiki> after your addition. '''Failure''' to sign your addition will result in someone removing your addition without notification.
 
Here are a couple of decent '''examples''' of usable information.
 
* Grass clumps floating in midair @ GI56, noticeable when going prone only ''[1.01.5094]'' - <nowiki>~~~</nowiki>
* 90% of the time when getting out of a boat the player is placed under the ground. ''[1.01.5094]''.[http://img291.imageshack.us/img291/8614/armartn1.jpg check image] - <nowiki>~~~</nowiki>
 
 
Reproduction missions can be very helpful for complex problems, when possible provide a link to the mission containing only the necessary items to illustrate the bug report.
 
==General Issues==
 
==AI Issues==
 
* AI can see trough the smoke generated by smoke grenades. Doesn't matter if AI has any prior knowledge of player or other unit behind the smoke. ''[1.02]'' -[[User:Sniperwolf572|Sniperwolf572]]
 
* 'SetWaypointPosition [pos,rad]' very often lets the unit hang after arriving at the waypoint - especially when inside of buildings. Compared to that 'SetWPPos rad' does a much better and solid job ''[v1.02]'' - [[User:wiper|wiper]], 15.Dec.06, 2245 CET
 
==Audio Issues==
 
* Turning off Hardware Acceleration makes the music really quiet. ''[1.02]'' -[[User:Sniperwolf572|Sniperwolf572]]
 
* No sound for "Get In" command, so if you command your soldier number 2 to get in the HMMWV as driver, you will hear "Two, driver, that Humvee." ''[1.02]'' -[[User:Sniperwolf572|Sniperwolf572]]
 
* No sound for "Stay Crouched" command, so if you command your soldier number 2 to stay crouched, all you will hear is "Two, ...". ''[1.02]'' -[[User:Sniperwolf572|Sniperwolf572]]
 
* Some sounds replay if they haven't finished properly or have been interrupted.
:Example: Put yourself in editor, detonate a Satchel Charge, during any part of detonation, pause the game, then unpause it. Detonation sound will replay, no matter at what point did you stop it, it will play again unless you have let it end.
: ''[1.02]'' -[[User:Sniperwolf572|Sniperwolf572]]
 
* First shot always sounds muffled. ''[1.02]'' -[[User:Sniperwolf572|Sniperwolf572]]
 
* sound damping effect for f.e. vehicles passing behind foliage (trees, bushes) should be disabled. In fact there is *some* damping effect by nature but it is not very noticable .. at least not that much. In ArmA a BMP passing a nearby bush sounds like passing a house or other solid object (or is it only on my sound system [audigy2]? - sry if so) ''[1.02]'' -[[User:wiper|wiper]] 15.Dec.06, 22:30 CET
 
==Collision Issues==
==Control Issues==
==Editing & Scripting==
 
* Referencing nonexisting files with [[doFSM]] and [[addAction]] (if the file does not end with .sqs) crashes the game. ''[1.02]'' -[[User:Salisan|Salisan]]
 
* SetUnitPos "Up" does not work. ''[1.02]'' [[User:Hoz|hoz]]
 
==Island Issues==
 
==Mission Issues==
==Multi Player Issues==
 
* Using a [[hosts.txt]] file kills your performance in the MP browser, as soon as you remove the file,  Your performance returns. ''[1.02]'' [[User:Hoz|hoz]]
 
==Dedicated Server Issues==
==Performance Issues==
==Physics Issues==
==Realism Issues==
==Units\Vehicles==
 
* Placing an "Helicopter" class vehicle in the editor and removing all of its ammo results in gunner view being very odd. You can move your mouse to move the gun, but view will remain fixed in one direction, usually towards the front of the helicopter. It doesn't matter if helicopter is crewed or not from the start. ''[1.02]'' -[[User:Sniperwolf572|Sniperwolf572]]
 
* Steering wheel on RHIB boats turn in the wrong direction. ''[1.02]'' -[[User:Sniperwolf572|Sniperwolf572]]
 
==Visual Issues==
 
* Night sets in too abruptly. MP Clean Sweep mission revealed that bug just by chance. I have set up a small [http://surfacezero.com/uploads/Sniperwolf572/AbruptNight.Intro.rar test mission] to show it's occurrence. Play the mission and accelerate time, few minutes afterwards everything besides the sky goes black. Time at which this happens varies from month and day, so every day has the bug occurring at different time. Reverse happens in the morning, set the time of the test mission provided to 05:30 and accelerate time. ''[1.02]'' -[[User:Sniperwolf572|Sniperwolf572]]
 
[[Category:Armed Assault]]
 
* Glass visor/optic on Stinger is see-trough. Similar to old OFP glasses bug. [http://www.surfacezero.com/uploads/Sniperwolf572/seetrough_glass.jpg Screenshot] demonstrating the bug. ''[1.02]'' -[[User:Sniperwolf572|Sniperwolf572]]
 
* Double crosshairs on first person view on gunner position of Stryker (M2). [http://www.surfacezero.com/uploads/Sniperwolf572/doublecrosshairs.jpg Screenshot] to demonstrate. Upper crosshair should probably be the dot crosshair. ''[1.02]'' -[[User:Sniperwolf572|Sniperwolf572]]
 
* Light cones light up objects and terrain behind them, where those objects and terrain are not exposed to light in any way. [http://www.surfacezero.com/uploads/Sniperwolf572/lightConeIssue.jpg Screenshot] to demonstrate. ''[1.02]'' -[[User:Sniperwolf572|Sniperwolf572]]
 
==Weapons==
 
* Model for laser designator is still missing. ''[1.02]'' ++[[User:Str|Str]]
 
* No recoil on MP5. ''[1.02]'' -[[User:Sniperwolf572|Sniperwolf572]]
