loknarr shadow armor is unobtainable as it requires "stealthsuits" research, which has no other links, nor an object/person it can be gotten from. Seems like some links are missing.

Last I remember, steathsuits came from catgirls.

Anyway, here's a not-actually-a-bug report: I think the Old Earth Lab should mention its storage space of 50 in its description.  I was wondering why my starting base had 300 storage capacity when it only had Vaults, Armored Vaults, and a Burrow (75+150+25=250) until I read the ruleset and found the source of the last 50 storage.

Edit: Bug report for real this time: I can confirm what Martin said earlier about the bandit boss.  Stunned one during a Bandit Town mission and finished with him still stunned and not dead, yet he's nowhere to be found among my prisoners.

In 0.99.H3 just experienced an enemy visual problem, though guy on save a sister mission, seems actually more a map prolem since the enemy is not visibe from a certain angle of view, here are screenshots and a saved game :) (the save was created using the 0.99.H2)

I think I finally found the cause of the uncapturable bandit boss: Its corpse is flagged with "recover: false".  I'm hesitant to change it however, because the bandit boss corpse's stats seem different from the stats of all the other corpses so I'm not entirely sure if this was actually intentional; but if it is, then is there some other way to research the bandit boss?

snip
cat girls drop "stealthsuit parts". Not the same research item/entry.

I finally decided to delete the "recover: false" text from the bandit boss corpse (and also changed Prize: Saya's requirement from itself to Prize: Alliance Favors so it can actually be manufactured now), just simple ruleset edits.  After all if the bandit boss was unrecoverable, then why does he have a complete research topic?

So just to recap those two bugs to be fixed for the next version, with thanks to Martin for reporting them first:
- Prize: Saya's manufacturing requirement is itself, making it uncraftable.
- Bandit Boss cannot be recovered.

Yeah don't sweat, they've been both fixed days ago (as well as the stealthsuit problem) :)

Would you mind posting your patched ruleset?

I think two files need to be edited:

Piratez_Factions.rul -
     - Search for STR_BAN_15_CORPSE_BATTLE and delete the 'recover: false' line from that section to fix the Bandit Boss

Piratez.rul -
     - Search for STR_BOUNTY_HUNTING_PRIZE_SAYA in the manufacturing section and replace the STR_BOUNTY_HUNTING_PRIZE_SAYA under 'requires:' with STR_BOUNTY_HUNTING_PRIZE_ALLIANCE_FAVORS to fix the Prize: Saya

I made the change to the factions ruleset and then fought a new bandit town, but instead of getting the boss I got an item with a STR name matching the section I edited.  I took him down with seduction and a single wand of pain blast, so I don't think I had killed him.

That's a corpse (which humans aren't supposed to leave behind), so he dead.  Maybe try adding "battleType: 11" that all the other corpses have?

Anyway, is the reaper cavalry ever gonna get anything more descriptive than "???"?

Ran into couple of unarmed bandit bosses while hunting shamblers

I just got this too, expected shamblers but got bandit bosses instead.  They had absolutely no items on them at all and were completely harmless.

Is it actually a bug, or have shambler hunts finally become like all the other monster hunts where there's a chance they'll be something else other than what's advertised (like nomads instead of monsters, or blood hounds instead of spiders)?

Just found a bug when I reloaded Autosave Geo. I sold prisoners exceeding my cap after mission and when I reloaded the autosave (which is just after the mission) the prisoners appeared in my inventory exceeding my prison cap. So I have 20 prisoners with a 15 cap. I attached a savefile.

I experienced a freeze responding to a stranded government agent. After killing OpenXcomEx I got the following message:

I cannot do much without a save. The message is really strange, since this terrain is not used in any mission yet.
