    Supplies don't drop

    As commander, there have been times when I click the Supplies button to drop a supply, click a road where I was to drop it. The Supplies button goes grey, as if the supply had been dropped, but I see no parachute, and if I zoom into the map, I see no supply box dropped, and the guys on the ground confirm there is no supply box there.

    It's done it a few times for me, I think mostly on Karkand, on the road going up to Suburbs from Train Accident.

        Yeah...it was a bug that was carried over. There's nothing that I've found that could be something I did to CAUSE it, so it's probably hard to debug it. It just HAPPENS... :-/

          I noticed that it happens if I right click and move my mouse down real quick and don't hit on the area for "Supply" good enough. Like, if I just click the edge of its area. Same with the grey button. If you move your mouse and click it too quickly, it will depress as if dropped, and recharge, but no supply gets dropped.

              Seen it too .. very annoying, when you need it to repair ya commandor toys. And your team won't repair it, with their tools as engineer

                I think this should be added to the official list of bugs, since multiple people have confirmed it.

                  I have had this happen since day one, more times than I can remember...

                  For me its always:

                  -maximum zoom (I only use max zoom when dropping supplies etc. for accuracies sake)
                  -seems to happen using the Supplies button or the Right Click on the map
                  -you can replicate it easier if the point you pick to drop the supplies has different model heights i.e ground level and building, what I'm trying to say is that it's much less likely to happen on open level gound if you pick a clear spot
