    yeh had this a few times as comm aswell, never seen it on the field tho.
    But waypoints and such seem to be a bit buggy atm anyway. Some games the waypoints even go crazy and i give waypoints to the other side of the map to players i didnt select.

    Well, I wasn't giving waypoints, if that helps a Dev figure out this thing. I was just selecting a tank, who already had a target on the enemy CV which was invisible (outside of Fog of War).

    Most of the time, dizzy, when that happens is because if you give infantry a waypoint, then they get into a vehicle, that way point is fsked up usually. Maybe that's what happened?

    Ah, weird! I hope this gets the attention of Krenzo or somebody with the power to do something about it... I'm pretty sure a lot of people have seen this, and although it doesn't alter gameplay, it's rather strange. Hence the music I choose.

    When I try to watch that movie, there is blank space, where it should be. Is there another url to watch it?

    Bassically what you missed was when he was commanding. He had an artillery selected, and every time the artillery fired, it had the attack waypoint on the artillery shells.
