MGs set up in the opposite direction

Hi,

since the latest patch that included Western front armies, I´m experiencing problems with the MG set up.

Often, but not always (so far it happened in almost every game at least once though) it can happen the MGs set up in exactly the opposite direction as ordered (180° turn).

I think it happens when setting up the MG behind cover.

It keeps happening to me, very annoying bug that's forced quite a few MG retreats for me.

Sounds like they keep introducing the same mistakes from Dawn of War 2 again. The same thing used to happen there with setup teams after some patch.

I noticed lately a lot of times enemy machine guns setting up in nonsensical positions.

Indeed, how many times this has happened to me this last few days playing as Ostheer.

The bloody MG42 just faces the opposite direction I tell it to face. Lost me quite a lot of engagements unless I'm constantly babysitting it, and microing is not my strong suit.

Relic fix this with celerity.

Lost me two or three games today. Worth a hotfix in my opinion. So far I've experienced it only with the MG42, don't know if it happens with other MG's as well. Not sure exactly what triggers it.

Considering the setup times of the MG42, it's quite a serious issue.

I saw this happen in several streams. I saw it happen to Dane twice. MG 42 set up facing the polar opposite of the enemy, Dane cursed them for being stupid and clicked next to them to make them pack up and reset while he managed other things, but they just set up facing backwards again.
