[708] Combat Engineer

Post by .Intense »

Description:
After killing any opposite factioned player, obtaining his kit (combat engineer specifically) Unable to use the Support truck that normal requires Combat Engineer or Officer. Was able to repair a bridge with the wrench.

RETESTED CONVENTIONALLY:

Asked a friend to help me by spawning as Chinese Combat Engineer while I spawned as British Combat Engineer. We met on the map, I killed him and took his kit and attempted to use the truck I travelled to the location with (Support Truck). After getting his kit and trying to leave in my truck, I get the system message about the support vehicle requiring Officer or Combat Engineer to operate this vehicle. Below are the screenshots.

Steps to Reproduce:
Kill an Enemy Combat Engineer, grab his kit and attempt to use a Support Vehicle (You will be able to drive, but you will get a system death)

Screenshots/Video:

Nice bug report! It's like we testers do it :D

But picking up enemy engineer kits and then immediately being able to drive a support truck might be unrealistic. I don't know if this is intentional or a bug.

Thanks for the report anyway,

Thanks, I am a PR Tester so I'm familiar with the reporting template. I retested as requested by a PR Dev conventionally with other faction kits with the same result.

Happened for me as well just yesterday. Ghost Train map. Killed enemy engineer and took his kit. Could not drive in our Supply Vehicle but could repair as normal. TG Server.

Possible Related bug?

If this bug occurs, due to original kit functions not being transferred to new pickups, then by this same logic, would a downed Pilot that manages to grab another kit be unable to capture flags?
