The cause are Megascorpion Stings. Sell or ship them away before the Breaker strikes.

Also how did you manage to get a Crackdown so early on??? :)

Oh, thanks! That works. Is it because the Stings have no in-game image or something? And I managed it by knocking out three bases. When I saw a few weeks in, I meant real time. In-game it's been slightly over a year  :)

The fusion ball launcher is a heavy craft weapon despite having missile-like stats, being listed with the missiles, and having "missile" in its descriptive text. If this classification is intentional, I'd suggest moving the entry back to sit with its fellow heavy weaons and changing the descrition to "rocket".

Enemies from an elevated position can attack people in the Pachyderm through its apparently leaky roof.

Iv'e been noticing that sometimes when I fire rockets (in this case panzerfausts and RPGs with heat rockets) that the rocket gets launched, but no TUs are deducted and no ammo is expended.

I'll have to see if I can reproduct this.

If you have any scorpion stings sell them real quick, they're bugged when combat is involved and just vendor trash from what I understand anyway.

Confirmed. It apparently counts as a 2x2 unit when equipped to the dropship.

Actually wow, it seems like all kinds of exploding weapons will randomly not use ammo and or TUs when fired. Have seen this happen with Stick grenades, grenade launchers, and light cannons firing HE rounds. Sometimes it will consume no ammo or TUs, other times it will consume TUs but no ammo, and other times It will consume ammo but no TUs.

Might be a side effect of the trajectory fix...

That is unlikely. Also, can someone reproduce it?... I can't.

Probably the window at the front. It's weird, but presumably intentional.

Are you using the right binary, ie OpenXcom-extended rather than OpenXcom? The latter will load X-Piratez successfully and ignore what it doesn't understand, leading to all sorts of errors. And from what I recall when I did it, this was one of them.

I'm pretty sure I compiled the extended version 3.1

I'm running on linux.

How did you get the code? If using git, did you make sure you had the proper branch checked-out? It's happened to me a few times that I compiled master instead of the right branch (oxce3.1-plus-proto or something). If you compile master, you get the nightly version of some time ago ;)

They didn't actually shoot through the window.

Alright, just got a super annoying bug that is causing my game to hang indefinitely after winning a base defense.

Kill the last dude around the corner in the save (by the access lift) and watch the 'magic'.
