You can still try to M.C. them and go for psi-capture to get an alive speciment.

Capture by liftoff is such a dumb idea it's never even occurred to me to try it. Can't believe people used it with a straight face.

On the on hand, yes, on the other hand I think it was a hilarious feature and somehow fitted the theme as it was incredibly hard and risky.

I've got the same problem as Flyingseawalrus (March 28, 2018, 08:39:22 pm).

Game crash while loading Academy Campus mission, after clicking YARR! upon arrival

[10-04-2018_19-08-53]   [FATAL]   Unfortunately, no stack trace information is available

This is a known issue and will be fixed in the next release.
For now, please make sure you have savescumming on (in options) and reload from a save just before landing. Repeat until it works.

    type: STR_LOC_DOOMED_FARM
    secondsRemaining: 163800
    id: 1
    lat: -1.1170107212763709
    lon: 0.73303828583761843
    deployment: STR_LOC_ACADEMY_TOWN_COLD
    race: STR_SECTOID_NONCOM                 # changed by Meridian, was STR_DOOM
    detected: true

No... Academy Campus is a completely different problem. Too many buildings spawn on this map.

Oh sorry. I thought academy campus = academy campus carnage. (Also because of same "unit" message)

It has both problems. And this one was the same as you encountered.

Changing their death behavior back to not exploding anymore is also an option.

At nighttime mission I cannot see any enemies even when I am close enough to detect. On mars, which I just beat, it was so dark I could barely see on screen enemies? Any way to make nighttime darkness less brutal on my eyes for my next playthrough?

Press Scroll-Lock to turn on night vision... or use flares.
