XPiratez / Question about magna lite.

« on: January 19, 2017, 06:40:13 pm »

Hello.

I think this is kind of stupid, but... How do you turn off the magna lite?. I pressed L like there is no tomorrow but the magna lite never turn off. Or maybe it is not intended?.

Does shipwrecked gal recruit supposed to add a hand to my band? I rescued one and have the option to recruit and to hire. Hire is adding the worker (BTW, I don´t see this workers giving me more vault space My mistake). But recruiting is not adding a gal to the band. Maybe I´m confused? But I read the manufacturing description and say it should add an Escaped Lunatic. I´m attaching the savegame.

Thanks.

XPiratez / How to survive your first pogrom?

« on: January 16, 2017, 11:05:47 pm »

I start playing  0.99E.3 and get into my first pogrom in the first month. I found some Humanists. i survived two turns (Not counting the first waiting turn). They totally obliterated me without any chance of survival. I reloaded the battle and success in stun and retrieve a instructor, costing me just two die hands and one in intensive care. Maybe I´m trying a too high difficulty (Jack Sparrow),  but at least I clean a cultist and a academy mission just with some causalities, no total carnage!. It is better just to show and run, or there are possibilities in the early game to at least capture something?.

I´m almost in December, and have to say that the Magnun is a life saver. I´m playing in Veteran. For the Strange Life form missions, guns are total crap, but I think this is really ok. I use Hunting Rifles + Shotguns. But it gets tricky to capture animals alive. I have been very lucky though, normally I get a bleeding one alive in the last turn. In the cultist activity missions, guns rules, normally I have a fast firing one (Glock, low damage, but against unarmoured folks rules, or to give the final blow) and the Magnun or if I´m in close combat, the small shotgun. I don´t see very useful the Pump action shotgun. Will test now the normal Shotgun, but the small one have a place in my squad hearth XD.

Oh, and BTW, I spam in a cultist mission just in the side of a house, total carnage, luckily I happen to have a grenade I got from another mission. Only one agent live to tell the story.

Sorry if this have been reported before, I made a search and it seems like not.

My game crash everytime I use auto sort (Z shorcut in inventory). The log say nothing. I´m usign 0.5.2b, with the OXCE+ provided. The game log say nothing, just a standard segmentation fault. I leave the savegame attached.

BTW, how can I make the log more verbose?

Released Mods / Re: [COMPILATION] Final Mod Pack (FMP)

« on: January 11, 2017, 09:14:28 pm »

Solarius, my Knowledge of github if near to zero, but I can try to update all the rulesets in the repository to 1.9.6 at least (making the corresponding branch), and try to post updates every time you update the pack.
 
BTW.  the MIB base missions is intended to work as a infinite time landing? Or it is just a workaround?.

I search for siteType: in all the .rul in X-piratez and don´t get any hit. Maybe they use something different?.

To end, as far as I understand, STR_ALIEN_BASE_ASSAULT for alien infiltration is because at the end of the infiltration mission, aliens generate a base, and you need that siteType: in every mission that generate at the end a place. TBH, I don´t know how the code works (Or any c++). It is just my guessing but, alien terror missions should not have a siteType: too?.

Thanks Hellrazor (Taking care of writing it the correct way  )

I added the siteType: STR_ALIEN_BASE_ASSAULT to the corresponded missions and it works perfectly.

I tried to look at the github of FMP to push the correction, but it says the version is 1.9.1.

Hi.

Sorry if I´m posting this here when I should post it anywhere.

Regarding the alien base behaviour that I see using FMP with OXCE+, I made some experiments. (I know, not intended to work this way, but backward compatible so...).

I set this experiments:

First Experiment:

Spoiler:

Mod list:
  - "xcom1 ver: 1.0"
  - "Aliens_Pick_Up_Weapons ver: 1.0"
  - "UFOextender_Gun_Melee ver: 1.0"
  - "UFOextender_Psionic_Line_Of_Fire ver: 1.0"
  - "UFOextender_Starting_Avalanches ver: 1.0"
  - "XcomUtil_Fighter_Transports ver: 1.0"
  - "XcomUtil_Pistol_Auto_Shot ver: 1.0"
  - "XcomUtil_Skyranger_Weapon_Slot ver: 1.0"
  - "XcomUtil_Starting_Defensive_Improved_Base ver: 1.0"
  - "XcomUtil_Statstrings ver: 1.0"
  - "oxce+strings ver: 1.0"

I know that OXCE+string is only needed with oxce+, but I did not deactivate it in the other ones for convenience.

Information from savegames:

Spoiler:

OXCE+ Savegame
name: DEBUG_OXCE+_ALIENBASE
version: Extended 3.5+
build: " (v2017-01-06)"

OXCE Savegame
name: DEBUG_OXCE_ALIENBASE
version: 3.5
build: " Extended"

OXC Savegame.
name: DEBUG_OXC_ALIENBASE
build: " git 2016-12-30 10:57"
version: 1.0

I added this alien base missions to the savegames:

Code: [Select]

  - type: STR_ALIEN_BASE
    region: STR_EUROPE
    race: STR_SECTOID
    nextWave: 0
    nextUfoCounter: 0
    spawnCountdown: 10
    liveUfos: 0
    uniqueID: 3
    missionSiteZone: -1
  - type: STR_ALIEN_BASE
    region: STR_NORTH_AFRICA
    race: STR_FLOATER
    nextWave: 0
    nextUfoCounter: 0
    spawnCountdown: 10
    liveUfos: 0
    uniqueID: 4
    missionSiteZone: -1

   
I run a game month and this is the result:

OXC   Savegame: Both bases show.
     deployment: STR_ALIEN_BASE_ASSAULT
OXCE  Savegame: Both bases show.
     deployment: STR_ALIEN_BASE_ASSAULT
OXCE+ Savegane:
     deployment: STR_ALIEN_BASE_ASSAULT
    
With this, I confirmed that the builds are working Ok with vanilla.

Then, I tried again, with FMP,

mods:
  - "xcom1 ver: 1.0"

  - "UFOextender_Gun_Melee ver: 1.0"
  - "UFOextender_Psionic_Line_Of_Fire ver: 1.0"
  - "UFOextender_Starting_Avalanches ver: 1.0"
  - "XcomUtil_Fighter_Transports ver: 1.0"
  - "XcomUtil_Pistol_Auto_Shot ver: 1.0"
  - "XcomUtil_Skyranger_Weapon_Slot ver: 1.0"
  - "XcomUtil_Starting_Defensive_Improved_Base ver: 1.0"
  - "XcomUtil_Statstrings ver: 1.0"
  - "final-mod-pack ver: 1.9.6"
  - "hqsoundsfmp ver: 1.0"
  - "oxce+strings ver: 1.0"

Spoiler:

name: OXC_DEBUGALIENBASE
version: 1.0
build: " git 2016-12-30 10:57"

name: OXCE_DEBUGALIENBASE
version: 3.5
build: " Extended"

name: OXCE+_DEBUGALIENBASE
version: Extended 3.5+
build: " (v2017-01-06)"

Added the same bases mission in the savegames.
Run one game month.

Results:

OXC   Savegame: Both bases show.
     deployment: STR_ALIEN_BASE_ASSAULT
OXCE  Savegame: No base showing
     deployment: STR_TERROR_MISSION
OXCE+ Savegane: No base showing
     deployment: STR_TERROR_MISSION
    
So, the error appears when FMP is added and used in OXCE or OXCE+.

I read alienMissions_FMP.rul, and see this line

Code: [Select]

    spawnZone: 4 #Mission zone for alien bases

So, I modified the added alien base mission, and set a new experiment with missionSiteZone changed from -1 to 4.

Code: [Select]

  - type: STR_ALIEN_BASE
    region: STR_EUROPE
    race: STR_SECTOID
    nextWave: 0
    nextUfoCounter: 0
    spawnCountdown: 10
    liveUfos: 0
    uniqueID: 3
    missionSiteZone: 4
  - type: STR_ALIEN_BASE
    region: STR_NORTH_AFRICA
    race: STR_FLOATER
    nextWave: 0
    nextUfoCounter: 0
    spawnCountdown: 10
    liveUfos: 0
    uniqueID: 4
    missionSiteZone: 4

run again with OXCE and OXCE+. Same issue, deployment is STR_TERROR_MISSION. The same happens with normal gameplay, not adding base missions by hand.
