Confirmed that the US english instead of UK english fixed the issues with sectoid naming, and some errors in the test in armors.
Default install put my language to Danish, and just picked one of the 2 English langauges at random :)

Is the audience in the Airbus Race mission supposed to give you points?

It's a bit easy to get a Dangerous rating for a one turn mission...

There are tiles that have no movement cost.

Here's a list of floor tiles with zero movement cost from latest piratez version.
Some of them may be unused (or otherwise irrelevant), but worth checking all:

Code: [Select]
AVENGER        index:57
AVENGER        index:58
AVENGER_BL2    index:57
AVENGER_BL2    index:58
AVENGER_G3     index:57
AVENGER_G3     index:58
AVENGER_GR     index:57
AVENGER_GR     index:58
AVENGER_R      index:57
AVENGER_R      index:58
COMBITS        index:19
CULTEXTRA      index:36
MARSEC_INT_2   index:38
MARSEC_INT_2   index:39
STATION        index:5

It is stated in the readme that US English is the only fully supported language.

Anyway, I just had a Watchtower mission where every single enemy started outside the tower. Not sure if I was just extremly unlucky (most I had outside before was 1) or if it is a bug.

I just got this too, on a large map, too.  Is this a new setup for the Watchtower that you can get?  It's amusingly jerky if so.  If it is, I'm guessing the logic is that they all went out on a mission, or they just wanted sunflowers or something silly like that.  Wouldn't it make sense to leave one person in the tower, in case they need to be contacted?

What research is supposed to unlock the Silver Snake? I'm pretty sure I got it through bounty hunting, and that doesn't sound right.

No, that's accurate; the Silver Snake is a bounty mission prize.

Not as a prize, from the research unlocking the bounty hunting.

I can't buy it, but I shouldn't know what it does, based on how I understand the bounties to work

@Dioxine: same issue as the other day:
deployment.type = "STR_LOC_ACADEMY_TOWN_COLD"
race="STR_DOOM"
alienRank=11 # doesn't exist for STR_DOOM

@unarmed drifter: yes, you can either skip the mission, or change the alien race for this mission in the save file, to something compatible, e.g.:

Code: [Select]
missionSites:
  - texture: -44
    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

Attached a fixed save game too, if you wanted to try... still easiest is to just skip it.

I found a error in the ammunition /Sly (or at least in one of them).

Maybe I'm wrong, but should not there be a "Snubby Drum /Sly" on the production list?
All other ammunition /Sly appear on the list and can be produced, could anyone confirm if it is just me that Snubby Drum /Sly does not appear?

thanks in advance.
