wrong TU visual in HUD

(1/2) > >>

Kobold:
i found out that my soldiers if they are crouch modus and i try to use all my TU's with 1 Turn... i cant use them with one command, i got allways 3TU's left.

To example my soldiers already in the creep-mode and i got 30 TU's to use... i send him to a wall and the HUD show me it would take  30TU's for that action... but its wrong, after he arrived, he crouches and i still got 3 TU's left... this happend in campaign modus.

I use Win32 2.3 official stable release on WinXP.

Jarkill:
Do you have autostand enabled? If so, I think it tries to reserve enough points for you to stand back up or such. Not exactly sure what autostand is supposed to do (make you stand up when you walk to save tu's was my assumption, but I really have no idea).

Try disabling it and tell us what happens.

hmmm autostand...? i dont know what you talking about, i cant find this options. there are only 2 options: duck and stand up.
how i deactivate this option?

i dont know if my soldiers use this options.. to example: my already ducking soldiers want to move 30TU, he stand up and move to the point, he arrived and he goes down to his knees, but 3 TU left... this all happend automatical.

This is autostand? o.O

Sarin:
Autostand is feature that, when moving crouched soldier over significant distance, makes him stand up and, when reaching destination, crouch again, thus saving TPs as opposed to moving crouched all the way.

Your problem is probably that a little checkbox near crouch/stand up button is checked, this reserves 3 TPs for crouch/stand up.

I just noticed this myself.  Downloaded the windows release version a few days ago.  If my soldier is crouching at the beginning of the turn and I find a square to move him to that uses all of his TUs(31), he uncrouches, walks over, crouches and still has 3 TUs left.  The next turn, as an experiment, I uncrouched him manually, walked to the original spot and crouched.  Again I had 3 TUs left.  When I uncrouched my soldier, it said it would be 22 TUs to walk to the square.  3 + 22 + 3 = 28.  So I think the algorithm to determine the TUs used to move while crouched is adding in an extra crouch.    The algorithm when he isn't crouched is correct (as far as I could tell). 

Autostand/Autocrouch was not on.

Beautiful game, BTW. A thousand times, thank you all.
