An Old Flares Bug in C4

[The Zar]

If you play DM mode, you will start with 200 Flares as usual.
After you released yours 200 flares and then you REFARP and you reloaded them in your client, for the server and for others pilots even if you release your flares it' s like you don' t have flares ! You will see yours second/third ... 200 FLARES when you release them, but others pilots will not see them. So flares now don' t have any effect/protection for your chopper !
You will have again yours 200 FLARES after a die and respawn.

If you play TDM mode, you will start with 200 Flares as usual.
After you released yours 200 flares and then you REFARP and you reloaded them in your client, for the server and for others pilots even if you release your flares it' s like you don' t have flares ! You will see yours second/third ... 200 FLARES when you release them, but others pilots will not see them. So flares now don' t have any effect/protection for your chopper !
You will not have again yours 200 FLARES during all the game.

Bye. See you in the sky.

p.s. - Anyway you must shot 1 sting or 1 hydra or 1 hellfire or 1 cannon or reload ealth after damages or reload efams to understand for the FIX that you are REFARPING. This is the condition to understand refarping and get again 200 flares for the server and for the others pilots to be able to see your flares. Game will be more realistic, you will have more fun and probably you can escape stingers more easily.

I remember you talking about this once before in the servers.
Do you know if this occurs in both versions 1.5 and 2.0?
And also, if I was to shoot 25 flares, REFARP, does that mean I only have 175 usable flares?

The anti-cheat you had created a while back had the option to Correct Flares-Bug. Did the program make the flares usable again or show that you have 0 flares loeft after FARPing?

Yes Knuckles, i spoke about this bug long time ago, but nobody were interested and said that i was wrong. False !

I don' t know if this occurs in versions 1.5 because i play only with version 1.20 and in 1.20 there is this bug.

Yes, you will have only 175 Flares even if you Refarp and your screen shows you 200 Flares. For the server and others pilots you have 175 Flares until you die.

My Host Manager can correct this bug, and if you Refarp you will have 200 Flares for you and if you release them all pilots will see them along the entire game, both in DM and TDM mode.

Bye. See you in the sky.
