Hi folks, a quick question about air defence. The image below shows what I thought was a soviet AD radar attached to an AD unit. It lights up every so often - I assumed scanning the skies for targets. But in the past few games these units have proven to be very elusive. This one has sat in the same hex as a friendly infantry unit for several hours now but all I ever see is the occasional image such as I have posted below. Never a unit I can actually attack with my infantry (although it seems I can hit some of them with artillery). A bit weird? Can somebody explain what I am seeing and why my infantry can occupy the same hex and never attack? (Still on 2.0.10bs by the way - can't work out how to beta patch my Steam copy).

Thanks,
Chris

Hi,

Not 100% sure but I believe v.2.0.10 had both an in hex spotting bug and an in hex combat bug. Probably covers what you're seeing. I run the Matrix version so can't help with updating the Steam version.

Cheers,

Rob.

Hobbes,

1. Go to your Steam Library.
2. Find your Flashpoint Campaigns game in the games list.
3. Right click on the game and go down to the Properties entry at the bottom of the list.
4. In the Properties Panel click on the BETAS tab.
5. Go to the first Drop Down where is says "Select the beta you would like to opt into:" and select the Open beta option.
6. Steam should download the latest 2.0.11.X beta which is 11.2 on Steam, but 11.3 should be coming soon and then we have 11.4 in the works.

You can versify the build at the main menu. Make sure to look over the What's New doc for all of the fixes. Especially when 11.3 goes live.

Enjoy!
