Comet/Firefly attack ground & Dancing officers

I just wanted to verify that Relic is aware of these two issues.

1. Comet, Firely, 17 pounder emplacement attack ground command will never register a hit on a target.

If you issue an attack ground order to Comet/Firefly (e.g. to circumvent smoke), the projectile will almost never hit the target, and will instead hit the ground below the target (at least that is what the visual indication implies).

There have been multiple mentions of the bug so far (e.g. in Cruzz's thread: http://www.coh2.org/topic/42404/another-bug-balance-list). However, I have never seen it officially acknowledged by Relic so far.

I think that this bug is really important as it limits the potency of two, otherwise, expensive units.

2. I saw that you are fixing dancing guards/USF captain. Could also fix the AI behaviour of the other affected units as well?

I am aware of the following units 'dancing':
- USF Lieutenant
- UKF Airlanding officer
- Shock troops
(possibly other Wermacht/OKW officer-types. I will try to keep this list up to date)

It feels so good to see that those guards finally decided to cast away their ballerina shoes.

You are correct.

The reason I didn't include Guards and USF captain is that they are being addressed in the upcoming patch.

According to the Balance preview mod:

Bugfixes:
- Updated squad plans on Guards Troops and captain squad to prevent unwanted movement.

17pdr. 77HV doesn't have a projectile, therefore they can't target vehicle that is in FOW.

Thanks. I edited my original post to add the 17pdr.

All those vehicles and guns that seem to hit open ground when attack ground on tank have no projectile, that's why their attack ground never hits.

Regarding the dancing officers, the Guards plan cover seeking pathing scheme which affects officers, Guards and other allied infantry, that often causes them to dance between cover, us being removed this patch.
