Another base invasion related crash; this time a Breaker UFO aptly breaks my game as it boldly attempts to invade FAGULON PRIME itself against all better judgement.
@ Meridian: The outcome is not reasonably determined by the player's actions. This applies squarely to the Psi mechanic; your recourse against it is very limited until fairly late, and even then Star Gods en masse are annoying to deal with purely because of Psi abuse; not because of the AI's quality or anything that could be construed as something you materially influence or that respects your decisions.
Give Chryssalids acid/poison spit so they can deal with flying units.
This would not instazombify, though if it would kill a unit, it zombifies them instead (the venom is what causes the zombification). However, the resulting zombie would be sterile because it wasn't implanted with an egg.
Wait, what do you mean it got 'destroyed'?
It was under construction; how would that even be possible? Does the landing craft randomly destroy facilities, including under construction facilities, when it attacks the base?
Yes, fake difficulty per the TvTropes definition:

Yeah man, 6 rookies vs an Academy battleship; it was 300 level brutal, only I won.

Alright, just got a super annoying bug that is causing my game to hang indefinitely after winning a base defense.
Kill the last dude around the corner in the save (by the access lift) and watch the 'magic'.
What's not to like about being able to determine line of fire precisely?
Please add a line of fire and arc designator which highlights blocked segments of the LoF/arc in red (unblocked segments might be green/black/other contrasting colour) so we can clearly see where we can and cannot throw/attack.
Also add an option to turn an LoS requirement on for VooDoo.
Add Goldman Sacks; the shadow banking faction which caves your skull in should you fail to repay your debts: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Dm70-ymoTxOQhzzQjoOEm8Uzymhq2miLmpxuLjB4fG8
Actually wow, it seems like all kinds of exploding weapons will randomly not use ammo and or TUs when fired. Have seen this happen with Stick grenades, grenade launchers, and light cannons firing HE rounds. Sometimes it will consume no ammo or TUs, other times it will consume TUs but no ammo, and other times It will consume ammo but no TUs.
Might be a side effect of the trajectory fix...
Yeah, I agree that it's annoying if you are being asked for selling something that was already sold... But then again, it's up to you as a player to deal with this. Prisons are cheap, so it's not terribly hard to have two at least. But if it's about UI, then the player can hardly do something about it.
Still, I agree with you Meridian that being asked about someone you no longer have is pretty bad. Actually I think it deserves to be called a bug, and not really acceptable. So... well, it would be great if you could do something about it.
Well, from my point of view, removing the prisoners from the sell window isn't a good idea - sometimes I sell them from this window, sometimes I'd rather wait for the 'prison is full' message, sometimes I enter the prison and sell them manually. This 'upgrade' removes one of these three options, which is bad. The best would be disabling the 'prison is full' window if you sell enough hostages (stuff is moved to temp 'storage' -> loot sell window -> only then check base capacities). But if it's not possible, I'd rather have stingy players who constantly run at near-100% prison capacity annoyed, than the rest of us bereft of an useful option. Moreover, it makes tracking prison overcrowding much harder to keep, as instead of naturally selling off needless captives immediately, you have to enter the prison manually and check all the stuff by yourself (I'm talking as a player who always aims to have at least 6-7 free space in prison). So players who try to keep prisons half-empty are effectively penalized for their foresight and planning.
Besides, removing prisoners from the initial sell list is very misleading IMO - the player might get confused whom, if any, did he catch.
