Unit health bars randomly doesnt work

Post by TradeMark »

Thats it, sometimes when i play, i cant see units healthbars at all, even when repeatedly pressing F9.

So is this bug, or have i just pressed some other button than F9?

This doesnt happen only when im host, even though i thought it was because of that. It has happened now when i also wasnt the host.

?O_O fixt pls? i need those bars for seeing how long my nuke is being built... :(

i know how to fix that. select the stuff which hasn't got the health bar above it then use ctrl+d to fix it.

Fixed in SVN (I think) otherwise and in the meantime, use the healthbars widget.

Take healthbars widget from latest CA, it works great, shows reload times and shield charges too.

I tried those custom HP bars, but seemed to not work either. I enabled every possible widget, and still i didnt see HP bars.

(Healthbars are only visible if the unit already took damage.)

Still cant see, or does they look exactly same as normal bars? I did put F9 to off, and then enabled every possible widget, and cant see HP bars...

Now they have worked in my past games, i think they dont work because of the same reason why normal HP bars doesnt work sometimes...

The health bars widget does not disappear because of the same bug that makes regular health bars disappear.

My guess is still that you've pressed F9 too much, or that your units aren't damaged.
