The attached savegame shows one occasion where I think that my guy should not be able to see the enemy. However, in some other map it was a lot worse, I should have saved then...
You can also check that you are not able to step vertically onto the upper stairs from the left, but I think that should be possible.
Some soldier should be able to fly and you can check that you can not fly onto and around a lot of areas that look like you can walk or fly onto.

I have encountered a bug where you can see enemies but can not aim at them. At least the crosshair does not get yellow. There are two save games of such instances attached. Just try to aim at the spiders you can see.

No 'aim bug'. All works fine.

However, the map of Fuego (and Fortuna) was indeed faulty, fix will be available in the next release.

Weird that you did not get the aim behavior... I did not get a yellow crosshair on the critter near the edge (first save) and another one (second save).
Maybe a different oxce+ version is a fault? I use 3.3+29be0a5 at the moment.

Another thing I noticed: the 'spend all time units' button does not do anything, or rather it can not be pressed at all.

Right-click.

So all buttons are left-click, except this one? What logic is that?
Can someone please create a complete reference of all keys and mouse buttons of every screen in the entire game? It is a completely inconsistent mess.
You can right click the same thing on one screen but it does nothing on another, left click here, right click there, middle click somewhere else, why not introduce a compose key or something emacs-like...

Vanilla developers set it like this to avoid misclicks.

At least I'm not the only one who does not know all the click/key combinations...
Just use the feature you didn't even know was there: use the built-in tech-tree viewer.
I think it's middle click on a research item. Then you get to a screen where you can move to other research items using left click. On that screen there's a button on the left bottom that gets you to a search screen. Use that to search for graduation and you should get a screen that shows you all requirements. The ones you do not have are pink if I remember correctly.

Larger Guild UFOs will have guys in Power Armour.   (MARSEC Bodyguards).  Typically, these UFOs have Guild Reps on them, too.

Shoot them.  Lots.

The Bodyguards, that is.

Cap the reps if you can.;

Ah, the good old days, when Marsec Bodyguards were as prevalent as they were feared... :)

Looks like another instance of a z -1 node. I'll ask again, does anyone know how to find/fix such nodes?

As for how to avoid it, it is caused by AI trying to throw a grenade into a place that doesn't exist. Do not create grenade magnets on this map until it gets fixed.

The culprit is the RMP files... one example is DESERT13.RMP.

I'll add some checks and logging to report such problems and prevent crashes.
