Well I am happy you're still able to use the mod for your thing! Most of my free coding time is being spent on a different project I started at the moment :x After you're done making changes to the ruleset name wise, you should post it on the forums. A lot of the names came from xracer, but I am open to suggestions!

WOW.  This mod is a nice touch!

Thanks! :3

 :-\  ouch, ok.  Well, I guess we'll just have to go with crashes if they happen.  Thanks for the update.  I was trying to stall my series start, to wait for Goomba crashes to be fixed... but I had to go ahead with it anyway.

Will do. (attached) ;)

Hello, really good mod.

However when i use it it over writes the UI for auto equiping soldiers. Am using Fmp. Any way i can keep both?

I've got another erroneous award.

In episode 5 of my Up Close LP, I run through the memorial screen.  Capt Green has posthumously received the Bolt's Cross.  The criteria is a leader or commander stun, but all this soldier has on record is 2 kills of Floater Soldiers.  The missions he has been on have only been small ufos, so no leaders or commanders were present.

The only unusual thing is a kill with a combat knife.

I guess Order of the Hammer is erroneous too.  "killed enemies of all kinds..."  (STR_MEDAL_DISTINGUISHED_SERVICE_NAME)

At the moment I am staying away from 'bad' commendations ;p things like "you killed your friends" and "you're the reason everyone is homeless in this town" things would be funny, but would look weird next to hard earned commendations.

If you ever decide to implement this I suppose it'd make sense to get around the tonal dissonance by creating a separate page (assuming you can find space in the UI). Perhaps 'commendations / citations'?

I expect the psi-weenies would have a good collection of demerits for poor discipline in battle / desertion / friendly fire / negligent discharge / conduct unbecoming, etc etc. Not to mention unwarranted destruction of property / loss of civilian life etc etc.

You get enough crap off the council, it'd only be fair to pass that down the chain as in real life. If only we could have them spend the week peeling potatoes or on latrine duty. :D

Hello, really good mod.

However when i use it it over writes the UI for auto equiping soldiers. Am using Fmp. Any way i can keep both?


If the auto equip is from another mod, it would be difficult for me to predict overlaps like that. However, if it's a merged mod I will just have to take a look myself and fix it! I am in the middle of a different project, so it'll be a little whiles away.

SiceX: Thanks for the translation! Including the Russian one that was PM'd to me, that makes 3 total languages :D

ivandogovich: Thanks again for the bug reports. So it seems like there is the goomba stomping, and a few erroneous commendation awards. If you keep tracking them (the soldier save is a big help), I will likely be able to fix them. Hopefully it's a simple logic error and not like ... save file corruption.

No problem, I'll keep reporting stuff as I find it.  And keep passing saves, or snippets as needed. 

I did test editing the save file directly to remove erroneous commedations, and that seemed to work just fine.  They did not reappear.

Cheers, Ivan :D

That's very very interesting. There is some information that is not saved, but it could also be corruption/bad code that awarded the commendation.

Hey Shoes, i think the auto equip is now just the standard UI option in Openxcom and that the exe of your mod is overwriting that part.

 No worries anyone dude, thanks for your reply and thank you for your hard work and awesome mod:)

A bit more feedback.  This is a save from my current Lets Play.  I've been getting some more erroneous awards.  Multiple Bolt's crosses some Orders of the Hammer, and now a Nike Cross for a soldier who has only stunned a Navigator.

Cheers, Ivan

Erroneous Award Reporting. 
I just finished recording ep 018.  (this will air on Wed Oct 1st).   I have two rookies that killed sectoids with a combat knife.   Both of them Received Order of the Hammer (for killing many kinds of aliens) and Bolt's Cross (for stunning high ranking aliens (which should be for Leaders and Commanders Only).

I am attaching the save for evaluation, whenever your time frees up, Shoes. ;)

Soldier ids are:
56
54

I have also removed earlier erroneous awards before this save (Nike Crosses, Bolts Cross, Order of the Hammer).

Cheers, Ivan
