Nice!  Thanks for the quick update!

No problem. I've actually thought that these missing lines in mission definitions would be taken from the basic ruleset, but apparently they weren't, so I added them.

The blaster bomb capitalization is still a problem (line 28010), though:
Handob_BlasterBomb.png -> HandOb_BlasterBomb.png

OK, I missed this one. Will fix in the next release.
I miss Falko's old tool, it was great for catching such things... :)

Yeah, thanks guys, but my concern is that it is no longer compatible with the nightly...

the rulcheck is currently noct fullt compatible with the nightly
also the online rulchecker cant check filenames because he does not have the images/zipfile anymore
i remember i have a half done script here somewhere that could check and fix most of the issues perhaps i should add a gui to it and publish it

Quick explainer: rulcheck is fully working, but if your ruleset already include the changes it will display those as errors. Ignore those and it's still very useful to check if everything else is working OK :)

Ey Solarius, did you really needed to put all the files of the terrainpack into FMP?
How about you make an extraruleset file call it FMP_Terrain_Pack_Nightly.rul, adjust the terrainpack ruleset file you need and you won't need to integrate all the other files of it. Just mention that people can use it, or should use it.

EDIT: OMG he did this with a couple of other mods too, which i would have used as optional (extraufo's etc..)
I don't wanna know how you keep things clean and updated.

The purpose of a mod pack is to provide a no-headache solution for the player, that's why it's an "all-in-one" product.

Besides, keeping separate rulesets in such a complex project is very challenging, and often impossible in many non-obvious ways - everything is connected.

As for how I keep things updated... Well, by regular updates. :)

Well so you integrate everything as you go on. hm.. also a way.

I may be hitting a bug - when responding to a port attack {first one of the game, I didn't even know they got implemented!}, I get a "vector::_M_range_check" error. I'm including the save.

...yes, I get it too. But I have no idea why.

Stupid question: Did you check the equipment given to the aliens for a port attack? The Terrain Pack uses only 3 levels, if the FMP uses 4+, that causes a vector M error.

Not a stupid question, but the deployments are identical to those from the normal Terror - apparently no problem here.

EDIT: 1.0.2 is online.
I followed Dioxine's way and got rid of the Port Attack mission, because it was acting up. Now the new terrain (by Hobbes) appears in the normal Terror missions.
(WARNING: If you have a Port Attack mission active, this update will probably crash your game. Remove that mission from your save.)

EDIT:
I'm an idiot. Download 1.0.3.

It looks like the capitalization of HandOb_BlasterBomb.png got mussed again in 1.0.3 (now on line 27737):

Handob_BlasterBomb.png -> HandOb_BlasterBomb.png

Hmm, now the game promptly CTDs if I try to save. Both geoscape and battlescape.
