Bug:Turn and view battle result not the same

You are of course correct, but it seems largely a matter of semantics.

From one point of view a bug is the set of symptoms, since that's all you can see from the outside. A particular reported "bug" may result from more than one problem in the code. And a problem in the code may result in multiple apparently unrelated symptoms. Without finding a code problem and testing, you really can't tell.

I was speaking in terms of the symptoms, since that's what the users report and since patch levels and operating systems are always suggested as the source of the problem.

As for it being "completely different", it may be, but if this really is new in 3.10, the first place I'd look is in the fix to the old bug.

Yes, technically this is just a matter of semantics, I just argued it to make sure that it is indeed just a semantics issue, and not a case of a wrong understanding of things (especially since you called a the difference in replay and actual events caused by different versions (of patches or mods) a bug, which it hardly is.)

Also, I meant that it is probably (but not necessarily) a completely different issue, I probably should have phrased it differently. As for looking in the fix to the old bug, that's pretty obvious since the fix is the code that directly controls the battle simulation - it's the first place you'd think to look regardless of previous bugs

When I saw the posters in this thread I was hoping for a rematch of the bgqsl/Agrajag grammar thing from awhile back. But no such luck, I'll have to get my entertainment somewhere else today.

Back on topic, this is a bug (of some kind) and like Torin said it can happen in single player so even if it is OS or server/client related, that's not the only explanation. When it happens you just have to live with it. I've even had it work in my favor a few times, where the battlefield replay showed me losing but according to the game I won.
