I downloaded the hotfix but now its causing a new problem.  This message pops up and the game closes.  When I restart XCOMFiles is disabled and trying to turn it on just causes the message again.

I also get the glitch when I used the battle creator, if you want to look for yourself.  Is it because it is a 4-space ally unit?  I think that this is the first time I've seen one.

Also, I just got an EXALT mission at the start of February, despite researching their termination at the end of December.  I'm pretty sure they should have left the spawn pool by now, so is this a bug?  I remember someone else mentioning something similar.  I'll post again if it shows up again next month.

I encountered a visual bug during the M.A.G.M.A robotics mission.  The marker for allied tanks on the mini-map was messed up and kept rotating between various glitched forms.  I have no idea how to make a gif, but here are two images as an example.  Also, after the mission I captured the one tank I stunned but I can't research it and it has no sell price.  I did not recover the wrecks of the ones I killed.

Thanks for the quick response.  Unfortunately, I have another crash.  This one was on a hybrid convoy.

I finished the Megaworm Autopsy, but it looks like the live one is still broken.

You mean after its weapon was ripped from its body? If yes, then it's as designed.

No, it was still intact with a M.A.G.M.A shotgun.  I wanted it to reload, or rather put the shells in its hand since that's all it had the TU's to do.

I'd love to give the Jumpsuit more love, but isn't it way too obviously military? With X-Com insignia to boot?

Besides, it would destroy the "badass in suits" effect in some other missions.

There could be a variant of the jumpsuit with the patches removed, that triggers in infiltrations like camo patterns in different environments.  If you want to keep suits, there could be an option for Durathread suits.  It's just that I feel like enemies are always popping out from unexpected spots and getting in potshots that cripple or kill my agents.  It's possible I'm just used to Piratez, since the gals are a bit hardier than agents.

It looks like you can't access a MC'd zombie trooper's inventory normally.  I had to do the old trick of going to someone else's inventory and scrolling.

Can you allow the Jumpsuit for infiltrations?  Right now the best infiltration armor is the leather coat, which is extremely thin for what you'll face in EXALT HQ.  The jumpsuit would be a decent upgrade, and it could still fit with the agents posing as janitors or mechanics.

I looked at the tech viewer, that's where I saw what I needed.  Pictures included, with the assumption that STR_ITEM_DESTROYED means I have to have one of the item in question to analyze.  So far I've only gotten zrbite tanks, so does that mean there's a mission that spawns individual zrbite that I haven't seen yet?  I'm eager to get this finished, since the Ironfist is down the line and a bigger transport would be really nice.

I have a crash when researching a Megaworm corpse.

Edit: it looks like the live Megaworm also causes a crash.

How do I progress in the TFTD research?  I can't research the zrbite tank I have, and it seems that disassembling it into raw zrbite requires me to research zrbite first.  Is there another mission past luring the aquatoid ship that I haven't triggered?  I haven't done any research that looked like it would trigger new missions.

Missions are generated at the start of each month, so the dagon missions already planned will still trigger and will only be removed when the game calculates next month's missions.  If its been a few months since you finished the research, then that is a bug.

Also from me, I noticed this in the cyberweb factory.

Edit:  I just ran into a crash.  It is on a landed UFO, though I suspect it is the hybrid mission since I had one in the same area earlier this month.  Save attached.

Is the attached message part of the new CQC system you mentioned?  It seems to result in shots missing if you are standing right next to an enemy.  I saw it on NPCs a few times before I experienced it myself, and until I saw the message I thought it was a bug.

There's a chance for sectoweed to spawn during crackhouse missions, but those are early game missions that eventually disappear.  As for the bong, it should have a use that spawns a smoke cloud.  That cloud restores morale and energy I think, but causes stun.  If you don't have an action then that sounds like a bug.
