SEVERE- Putting vehicle hull in turret storage causes severe memory leak issue and locks up the game
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Putting the BTR hull into the turret storage causes severe memory leak issue and locks up the game. It also crashes when you do it with the M2-browning Jeep.

Furthermore It locks up any server you are on, with the server needing to be restarted. If the autosave coincides with the memory leak, the server profile needs to be deleted and a new one created.

Sooner or later, some bored soldier decides to put storage, into another storage.

Jokes aside, can confirm this can be easily reproduced in Game Master too. The game freezes up but you are able to exit to the main menu at least.

If done in multiplayer - RIP server.

I am also amazed that the turret disappears if you do it vice versa - it seems the vehicles are somewhat modular which is interesting.

Oh yeah I would love more modularity in Reforger and Arma4, and all signs point towards it as well.

And its the MAS-36 with the bayonet lugs all over again.
