ION Showcase - Last Stand/Support does not correctly reset
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Within the multi-part ION showcase, the scenario where you defend a squad from a rooftop while waiting for an ION Marshall to show up can become broken if an enemy solider manages to critically damage (but not destroy) the Marshall. This forces the crew to bail out and infantry refuse to board.

This is compounded by the fact that damaged vehicles (and apparently some of the infantry too) dont get reset during "Reset Simulation". If you do reset the simulation, or fail it, or die, new vehicles are spawned in on top of old ones, exploding the old vehicles. In the case of the Marshall, this subsequently critically damages the new rescue Marshall and youre locked in a damaged-Marshall loop. This seems to make the showcase non-finishable.

Steps To Reproduce

Spawn into ION Showcase
Start the defend squad scenario (4th from the left)
Allow the Marshall to be critically damaged (one RPG seems to work)
Attempt to reset simulation and complete

Event Timeline

Scenario is actually 5th from the left*
Saving - exiting - resuming scenario also seems to have no positive effect

Confirm.
@Major.Heretic, as a workaround restart the showcase and complete this submission first.

workaround is functional, just a little frustrating without auto-save between scenarios especially if it glitches on one of the last scenarios to complete since each scenario takes a fair amount of time
