cannot deploy bunker bug

I've noticed that regularly this bug pops up when I CO. I've seen friendly co's have it too, and the only fix is for the CO to suicide (1 min spawn) which can hurt your team A lot because it usually happens at a crucial time when you are just able to build that new bunker in the right spot.

I think there are two variants. One is where all conditions are fullfilled, yet it keeps saying "cannot build another bunker/firebase unless you cap enough flags. Usually this one will appear when you have tried to build a bunker but didn't have enough flags, then you cap one or two extra flags, but no change. Possibly requesting with too little flags may be the cause, but it could also be that this is just the only way to notice the bug.

The other variant is that the QM keeps saying that you need to be within xxm of a friendly flag, but you clearly are.

These bugs don't appear often, and I don't think it is urgent to fix them, still I wanted to report it, so people can keep an eye on it.

ok as far as i know you need 2 flags per each bunker and you can have one firebase per each bunker. and to set a bunker i think you should be with in 50 meters of a friendly CP and also dont forget you need your support truck with you all the time. besides, you need a command post which needs to be fixed by an engi as soon as deployed. if you follow all the steps then you should be able to set a bunker no problem.
if you req a bunker and it doesnt apear then you can try again on a much better position. the only prob that i have had with deploying bunkers was that i cant deploy them under roofs!!

I've had that once - with a firebase if I remember correctly.
It was still telling me that I need support truck nearby, while it was parked 5 meters from the spot.

This isn't really relevant to the bug I mentioned, as I wouldn't report it if I wasn't 100% sure that all conditions were fulfilled. You seem to have posted the equivalent of a tech-support guy asking "Did you plug it in?". Off course many people don't
