Bugs & Crash Reports

[Vansi]

Pachyderm suffers the same problem as Zepplin. There is elevator between passanger cabin and pilot cabin and right under that elevator there is no solid deck, but hole in the hull. In normal missions it is not a problem, but in orbital mission Disruptive Transmissions I start in Pachyderm on level 13 and enemy is on platforms on level 5. In first turn when I move around passanger cabin gals are taking reaction fire from outside.

Savefile attached.

It is impossible to plug, since it's bottom level. So it stays that way.

Got a bug after taking off to Cydonia. The explosion of a crew (which is somehow got bugged from 8 gals to 1 gal) after the first step in the Zubrin vessel. 
The save file is attached. The version is 99J5.

[ohartenstein23]

Not a bug, this is a feature of Zubrin.  You can go to mars much earlier than with a more powerful ship, but you randomly get between 1 and 8 of the gals you sent for the mission.

[Dioxine]

Next time read the fine print. Did you really think that getting to Cydonia was easy?

[BBHood217]

Take it from someone who still managed to beat Cydonia in a Zubrin despite being one gal short: Keep going for the Conqueror.

I researched Poison tech and when I click "Begin Produce" on poison arrows I get a CTD.  (I don't have animal poisons in stock)

Any idea on whats making Pinky Demon immune to Neural Whip? Invisible one isnt affected either.

[legionof1]

the whip is a 2d100 roll so it possible to do no damage, but it is rather unlikely to happen that many time in a row.

Played with the save and yeah mister pink there seems immune, and he shouldn't be. Can't figure out a reason why with my limited skills.

I got a problem with the secret base missions. In 90 % of the cases they don`t spawn any base.

In the changelog of 99J6 there is talk about fixes for spawning of the bases. But I don`t know, if the fix corresponds to the same problem.

The STR_ALIEN_BASE mission is not flagged as alien base mission (objective: 2) and is missing other attributes too.
Currently it is just a normal ufo fly by mission.

To make it spawn bases, it should look like this, right?

Trajectory P6 is the default, so it does still have a landing in mission zone 4.



Some research seems to have been scrambled:
STR_VESSEL_GOVT_CRUISER (Govt Fusion Cruiser) is no longer obtainable.
STR_MISSION_GOVT_PATROL (Govt Business) has been removed from the research section, though the mission and Bootypedia entries still exist.

[Dioxine]

Ah right I deleted the mission so it no longer carries over that data from the vanilla files. Thx.

As for the previous fixes, they were about something completely different (alien base maps).

[LouisdeFuines]

It seems, the pedia entry for the persuadotron 2000 has vanished. At least in J5. In the changelog for J6 nothing about that is mentioned.
You can read the entry for the "prize persuadotron", but not the item itself.
