Sentry Deployment System Bug

Post by Karmac » 20 Jun 2017, 08:44

Bug Description: I've noticed that the sentry systems, once deployed, will occasionally enter a state where they can no longer be removed from the weaponry attach poiny with a power loader and require staff to delete both the Gauss Turret and the Sentry System from the attach point because there's literally no other way to get it off once it locks up.


Steps to reproduce:
Not entirely sure on this one, I've watched it happen to sentries on DS1 and DS2, and each time the sentry location was different.
Garth Pawolski, or is it Powalski?

Back in action.

Can't reproduce. Give me more details, was the sentry damaged? what happened when the powerloader tried to uninstalled the system? Are you sure the powerloader clicked the system and not the sentry turret?

in my case, sentry was just installed, so couldnt have been damaged, nothing at all happened when clicking the system, and im 100% i clicked the system and not the turret

on further thought, may have something to do with the fact that i couldnt stand on the tile directly above the system, so the one the sentry is on, blocking access to the system.
