Bugs, crashes, typos & bad taste

If I remember correctly, in X-Com Files it's set to 97% or 98%... So the chances for losing someone are slim, but still allowing for an occasional fatal accident, so never relax.

Definitely a bug... How did it happen? It's never happened before!

Reinstalled the mod. It happened because I replaced buggy drones with Hybrids. Remember that Hybrid Fort a few pages earlier? The mission seems to have drones in the underwater village. I don't think it's right, anyway. It's in the attached 2000-04.sav, scheduled for 2000-04-16 11:00.

Still better chances than in Xenonauts. There it's usually half of the ground crew. Even though the craft isn't lost permanently.

Just noticed this while trying to add some new missiles:

The backgrund and border colors of ufopaedia images for the craft railgun and the stormlance don't match the other entries, and the stock avalance and stingray images use the wrong palette colors (upper fin on the Avalanche / compare Stingray and Heavy Stingray).

Also, i'm getting a segfault when exiting the "Dimoension X approaches" map by killing all enemies. Evucuating by getting all of my agents to the exit works fine though.

EDIT: Apparently the initial spawn point in the second dimension x map (after exiting the caves) is buggy when using many units and/or tanks - i have 12 agents plus a tank, and loading the map crashes the game ~50% of the time. Works flawlessly when i leave the tank behind.

Thanks, fixed (I think).

Yeah, it's a known issue, though it has never been reported in relation to the Dimension X map. Will be fixed in the next version (or you can update your OXCE+, if you know how).

i keep getting missions to go kill cult bases and HQs, even after i researched "terminate the *cult*" tech. do i have to get them all before any of them stop?

[Niewiem]

I had same question yesterday.
If you researched tech this month missions will keep appearing until end of it as missions are generated at the beggining of month

I seem to be getting crashes on transitions to new maps in Dimension X, when it first appears. After beating the cave mission, I crash, every single time. After I'd upgraded to a new edition a little bit back, I used an old save in the caves and managed to transition to the new map just fine... except on beating that, I crashed as well.

What the... this was literally five posts ago. I get that people aren't keen on reading through entire threads, but this is just lazy.

[legionof1]

people whingeing about thing that's not shoved up there ass the instant they think about it, and cant operate a search function or there own eyeballs for more then 30 secs without running away crying. Welcome to 85% percent of the internet.

If it's new people or people with very few posts, it's completely normal and OK.

But we have such experts with hundreds of posts here too. That's sad.

[Solarius Scorch]

Luckily, this issue will be fixed with the next version. Or you can install the newest OXCE+.

[krautbernd]

Nah, too lazy. Also, already finished the arc in my current playthrough 

[krautbernd]

Something that just crept up:

Monster terror missions still spawn, even after finishing the arc. Is this intended?

[legionof1]

Yeah missions of a type you close off with tech can still spawn until the end of the month. It's the way the engine works, nothing can be done about it without rewriting the whole mission system from the bottom up.
