[WIP][MOD][OXCE] From the Apocalypse 0.29.0

[BlackStaff]

Thank you for this new version!     
Unfortunately I don't have time to play at the moment but I'm watching with great interest the new features of this pack!

Good evening.

I just tried out the latest version. Unfortunately, I encountered the following error after starting a landed craft mission.

OpenXcom has crashed: Alien Deployment STR_CRAFT_AIRFERRY_EGGS not found
Log file: C:/Users/Jason/Downloads/From the Apocalypse/From the Apocalypse/user/openxcom.log
If this error was unexpected, please report it on OpenXcom forum or discord.
The following can help us solve the problem:
1. a saved game from just before the crash (helps 98%)
2. a detailed description how to reproduce the crash (helps 80%)
3. a log file (helps 10%)
4. a screenshot of this error message (helps 5%)

I've also added the save file. I am using the latest OXCE. Hoping for your assistance on this. Thank you.

I encountered the following error after starting a landed craft mission.

Should be fixed, deployments for EGGS crafts were missing.
Thanks for feedback!

Hello again. Sorry to bother you, but I encountered another error, this time while I was performing a Dimensional Gate mission. Just so you know, I had captured a Wormling that appeared in the mission.

OpenXcom has crashed: Live alien item definition is missing. Unit ID = 1000002; Type = STR_HYPERWORM_TERRORIST; Status = 7; Faction = 1; Orig. faction = 1; isSurrendering = 0

Hello again. Sorry to bother you, but I encountered another error, this time while I was performing a Dimensional Gate mission. Just so you know, I had captured a Wormling that appeared in the mission.

Should be fixed now with 0.19.3, Wormling live items was indeed missing, but I couldn't run a test at this moment so hopefully it's just that.
Don't worry about reporting bugs! I've had very little time to playtest so they are numerous and your feedback is very precious.

[EleriumWard]

Thanks for this. Also, by any chance, do you have plans to make the human enemies researchable?

EDIT: Also, got another error for you. I got this after completing the Hyperworm research.

Cult of Sirius units will be researchable I'd say (maybe not all of them).
Corporation units probably won't.. maybe the scientists, IDK.

Thanks for feedback, will fix ASAP.

[robin]

fix is up, version 0.19.4.

fix is up, version 0.19.4.

Hello Robin

Found several bugs.

On the mission, when the door was destroyed, a new building appears instead of the door

Well, on the screenshots

[BlackStaff]

Found several bugs.

For the non-existent chain "STR_ELERIUM_115_UFOPAEDIA"...
Here is a quick fix!
- In the file "\From the Apocalypse\Ruleset\ufopaedia_apoc.rul", look for the line "- id: STR_ELERIUM_115"...
- replace the line "text: STR_ELERIUM_115_UFOPAEDIA" with the line ""text: STR_ELERIUM_115_UFOPEDIA"

Until Robin makes a fix, this fix will give you the original game description...

[robin]

The hyperworm ovule shouldn't be used in the game, elerium too is unused IIRC, maybe I have to properly delete both.
Seems I forgot to update the indexes for destroyed tiles, on that MCD library.
Thanks a lot for the feedback.
Will check, but it's going to take some time before I'll be able to do it.

[robin]

New version up, 0.19.6, everything should be fixed.

[BlackStaff]

Thank you very much !

Hello again. Got another error for you. This time, it occurred after I researched a Wormling corpse.

Also, I managed to capture a Swarmids group in the last mission, but they do not appear to be researchable at the moment, and the name is listed as STR_SWARMIDS_SMALL0_TERRORIST. Maybe you can look into that as well?

Thanks. Swarmids fix will be tricky, I hope I'll be able to do it.
