[SCENARIO ERROR] 1.11 B802 - DB442 - Area validation error false positive

Post by zaytsev »

I think this is false positive of area validation error.

CMANO thinks 3 support missions on Neutrals side are in error because they overlap.

There were more error in triggers areas, but, easily corrected, but this, dunno, please check.

Thanks

If you look at the arrows that make up the edge of the support missions you'll see they cross. I changed the ref point order and they validate just fine [:)] See attachment.

Aha, I see. Thanks. So, hm, no more diagonal routes? I guess the approach have to be more rectangular.(polygonal) yes?

ps. (on your corrected autosave you managed to unhide ref. points for fist two missions, third one have still its refpoints hidden)
How to heck did you manage to unhide hidden ref. points ? , I can manage their order through mission editor but I cannot see them on map? , I've checked all sides in scenario, but they are just not showing on map.
I'm currently smashing my head on keyboard but to no avail... they just dont show:)

And, is there a way to search for ref. points, except 'highlight on map' through mission editor?, Something like 'scenario browser for units'.., but for refpoints.., will check with lua yet.

Thanks

edit: yep, RP-17296, RP-17297, RP-17298, RP-17299, are not selectable from lua neither

Code: Select all

 >> ref =  ScenEdit_SetReferencePoint({side="Neutrals", name="RP-17292"})
 print(ref)
 {
  name = 'RP-17292', 
  latitude = '34,9597743022164', 
  longitude = '51,2707592289538', 
  guid = 'ebd29ff6-b5db-4993-a543-2e3500d7b365', 
  side = 'Neutrals', 
  highlighted = 'True', 
 }
 >> ref =  ScenEdit_SetReferencePoint({side="Neutrals", name="RP-17299"})
 print(ref)

Ok, to try to answer this myself, it is probably scenario error, there is nothing like "hidden ref. point".

Designer deleted ref. points but since they remained by use in mission, they were not deleted through,
some link to them remained.

Close?

My suggestion is to delete the missions and create them over again [8D]

For what it's worth, the error message that triggers the review of reference point sequence in RC2 B803 is a nice tool.

Nothing bothered me more in setting up a large operational construct only to discover my search areas resembled bow ties instead of the polygons I had planned because I didn't pay attention to the reference point selection sequence while marking an area on the map.
Take care,

jim
