Can't seem to select explosives to detonate in survival mode.
I have got a problem regarding detonating explosives in survival mode in a different order then I placed them. In multiplayer everything works fine, I select the explosive I want to detonate, regardless the order I planted them but in survival mode selection ever jumps back on the last item placed, no matter how hard/orften I click my chosen explosive.

So when I place a medic station after a satchel I have to blow up my medic station before I can set the satchel off. Just me experiencing that or do I do anything wrong? Bug or feature?

From your description you are the one doing it wrong.

If you place the Medic Station down after placing explosives, your "GG"-detonate shortcut will refer to your Medic Station, as it was the last "detonatable" thing you placed down.

You have to go and select your explosive manually, then press G to detonate it, as your shortcut will refer to your most recent "Detonatable".

Thank you for your answer. I know how to detonate a desired explosive in general, I am especially refering to survival mode here. It works perfectly fine in singleplayer missions and multiplayer. So my question is: does it work out for you in survival mode?

I just launched survival mode, and I can confirm what you are saying.

You are not allowed to select explosives manually, you can only interact with explosives using your explosive shortcut. So you can only interact with your last placed explosive.

It works the same in Survival Mode:
  • You can click it directly
  • Press g to select your last placed one
  • or use F5-8 to switch explosives placed
There shouldn´t be any difference.

But I will test that if there is an bug we will fix it.

Edit: Ok then we´ll fix that!

Thanks for reporting.

Also, Creed, the F5-8 assigning of detonators doesn't work anymore. Dunno when that was removed, but it for sure hasn't been in since the game was released. I made a suggestion a while back for bringing it back, but haven't seen anything on it since.

While this isn't relevant to the bug itself, just pointing it out for future reference.
