1.071 scout's binoculars

I have this problem from last few versions. I can test 1.00 later:

When I'm using scout's binoculars something shows up (red diamond similar to that from camera). But I don't see anything at all on minimap. Also nothing on map shown after pressing Enter or right mouse button. This happens also on clean 1.0 + 1.07 + 1.071 install. I don't see any marks made by other players from my team. I use latest ATI drivers for my gfx card.

 

umm...if i understand u ur not gettin the arty square to show up? hell, it only showed up for me the first time yesterday.

 

Don't you need feedback to see that mark?

 

i dont think so

 

You don't need feedback when scout spots the target. Then you can select it from the emp_map_arty menu and let it rip(you'll get the feedback whatever class you are).

I can confirm this, yesterday on a game of emp_money the emp_map_arty didn't come up. My version is 1.071 and the menu worked fine on me in 1.06.

 

emp_map_arty? is that a console commnad?

 

Yes, it's a console command you can bind to a key and it brings up the map where the scouts spotted targets are.

 

It's bound to RMB when you have the mortar out as grenadier and when you're inside an artillery tank.

 

Except that doesn't work for me since I have my firing and alt_firing keys on keyboard. I duck from RMB so I have a different key for it, but in the new versions it no longer works(tried rebinding and using the console command directly).
