[0973] Dragon Fly - Flag capture bug

Description:
Playing Dragon Fly AAS as militia, and after a hard fight we finally completely captured Train Depot; the last flag the British had. However, after we already had it for about five minutes, they suddenly were able to neutralize the 'second' flag.

I'm not sure whether this is a classic two-timed flag capture bug or something new, as it did happen (way) after we had already fully captured the flag. It might have been that we (both teams) started the cap at the same time but they had fewer players capping. Either way, I've never seen a flag being neutralized before, when the other flag had already been fully captured.

Steps to Reproduce:
Either capture Train Depot as the militia and try and capture the second flag with Brits; or start capping Train Depot with milita (say a 6 man squad) while at the same time 2-3 Brits start capping the second flag.

I know but I've only experienced that before in a way that leads to both flags being neutralized without further progress. I've never before seen that one of the flags had already been captured for some time before the other one went down.

Probably they have only 2 mens in capture radius, and you have more of them. So they need more time, that you.
It is also possible, that their start capturing, then you nearly neutralize first flag.

Yeah, it's more rare but this is possible... and not a bug.
