Here is repo mission
https://github.com/BennyBoy-/REPRO-HC-AI-Delegation-Issue.Stratis
Spawn some ai on headless client and you will see some ai will have no gun on uniform, as soon as you kill them everything will appear on dead body gun and uniform.
Also watch the RPT as when you spawn remote AI there will be tons of errors like
21:50:00 Server: Object 2:797 not found (message Type_93)
21:50:00 Server: Object 2:796 not found (message Type_93)

Thank you very much for the ticket.

We've been running our PvE server with 2 HCs since January 2018 and never observed such problems.
@Astaroth, it's resolved. Ticket can be closed.
I still see it from time to time, their not naked anymore but have no gear and when you shoot them all the gear instantly shows
@adminofpsnet, playing everyday on our server (2 HCs), observing bots as admin and they ALWAYS have their gear. No need to shoot at them for gear to appear. Have never observed such issue since January 2018, despite observing bots really a lot. So...
It's coded correctly, otherwise it wouldn't have connected to the server, offloaded the server from managing bots and bots wouldn't have performed actions required and the mission would have had problems.
The issue is still active in the current version of Arma. I did extensive debugging on the topic and it's quite easy reproduce. This can be avoided (not fixed) with proper way of handling the moving of group(s) to HC.
- Create a group
- Set a creation time in a variable for the group
- Spawn units to the group.
- Before moving the group (not the units!) to the HC, wait N-seconds. N=10 should be enough, but to be sure I used N=30.
For some reason the group is not 'ready' from Arma point of view. The group kind of needs to stabilize (?) on the server before handing it over to HC.
There should be a way to check that the group is 'stabilized' - not sure what Arma is doing with the group after creation. The fix should be such that Arma prohibits moving of groups that are not ready to be moved.
