Today on the TG server, me and the commander who was a TG member, couldn't build any assets. The map was Qwai river and we tried almost everything and we could not put down any assets, your guy would just say "Repairs required here" or something along those lines.

1)We tried building inside Government Office. we had a commander HQ there and a supply truck by the entrance. I tried requesting a build order and then putting something down, and the commander tried putting it himself, both of us got "Repairs required here" and nothing appeared.
2)We tried building 100m away from Government Office. We had a second supply truck in the field, we even dropped a supply crate, I requested a build order, he accepted, I tried to put something down, nothing still. He tried to put it down himself, nothing either.
3)We thought maybe the Commander HQ was glitching it so we destroyed that and tried again and still nothing, there wasn't any green text at the top which usually says "You need a supply truck, HQ.. blah blah", the soldier just says "Repairs required here" and nothing happens.

We had both Mine and the flag at the bottom and no other assets, so we did have enough CPs. Both of us had the officer kit. Rather strange really.

Known bug. It's actually the most important one I found so far.

And would someone be so kind to explain me how the build orders work exactly? Is it possible for any SL to build an asset inside a build marker placed by the commander? or doesn't it work that way.

Thx in advance and 0.7 rocks!

Yea militia can build assets. Only insurgents can't.

As Sl, you can request a build order, and when commander accepts it, you can put down assets. I think that the commander can put down build orders without requests too, and in that case you can build on those as well. Just have to have a supply truck within 50m.

I had a similar problem but when I requested a build order, it just asked the commander for new orders instead

Glad its known and being looked into as the same thing happened to me.
Our command post would not deploy so no assets could be built.
I should add that as the first commander of that game I tried to deploy the Cpost inside a barn (probably not a good idea) and "Command Post being deployed" message came up on screen but nothing appeared.
Any subsequent attempts to deploy Cpost had no message on screen.
Several replacement commanders tried to deploy our Cpost but no go while the enemy had their assets up and running.

Some assets will not build even though you have enough CPs because there are enemies in the flag cap radius of the flag you are trying to build a bunker at. Clear them out, and then you can build.

Yeah but I can't build a firebese in the middle of the desert on a smooth terrain.

Playing on Jabal...as MEC commander.

All was going well.. had placed 2 bunkers, 2 firebases & 2 AA guns. All with no problems.. i placed them myself as CO.

Over the course of the round all but one bunker & one firebase had been destroyed.. when an SL at East Beach requested a build order.. which i was unable to Accept, it was requested over ond over again..then when the request did work and was accepted the Support Truck in the area got destroyed b4 a bunker could be placed.

From this point on no assets could be placed. I tried over and over again at West Beach.. my arabic was not good enough to know why.. the QM was telling me..but i couldn't understand him.. lol

As commander only 1 game out of 6 did not have the command assets bug

I have had the bug occur on bunker, AA, razorwire and SL build order deployemt. One thing I wonder is if the bug is related to a misplaced asset. Sometimes you try to place an asset where it can not drop. Does this now contribute to the asset building freezing from then on.

Remember this round Sparkks? lol

We had them down 30-10 then their firebase gained them 10 tickets and they rushed village...

We we're causing hell to the other tacteam squad at air base.

Had the build bug in that round while the militia could build stuff still.
Am I right in sayingf the build bug seems to only effect one side at a time?
ah well devs say theyve fixed it, rock on the patch!!!

The bug seems to be caused by building in inappropriate locations where the asset can't spawn - ie. inside building.
Make sure you deploy them somewhere in open space (I know it sounds crazy, but better have a blown up bunker than not being able to deploy anything at all, right?).

I already built a bunker in a hangar and there was no problem. This bug is very annoying, particulary on big map
