Bugs, crashes, typos & bad taste

[Bananas_Akimbo]

I recently got awarded 'Night Owl' for the first time, but it isn't displayed properly everywhere.
In the soldier's records it is shown correctly. However in the bonuses window, it is nowhere to be found. Instead there is a commendation simply called 'Commended!' and apparantly it gives me +1 readiness. That one isn't even listed in the ufopedia.

I don't know, if I'm getting the promised sight bonus from Night Owl, but I'm definitely getting the RDN bonus from Commended.

Save?

I scrapped the only save I had with a level 2 decoration, but I'll upload one as soon as I get another. Here's a save where level 1 Cavaliers and Soft Targets show their respective levels as "None".

Incidentally though, I'm not really digging the names for Soft Target and Patient. The first sounds like a negative trait for what is a purely positive one, and the second suggests that the soldier has patience.

I vote Battle-hardened or Battle-scarred, and Trauma-Thickened or Thickened Skull.

Incidentally, is it a bug if a thug spawns in an inaccessible garden?

[TheCurse]

is it normal that syndicate doesn't really do anything when attacking your base?
they did have a hand full people walking in my defenses (incl 2 bovines), but the rest is basically just standing around.
in the elevator, in the hangar, they don't even move.
if not a bug, maybe increased offense would be adequate.
(they´re storming the base. not having a sit-in...)

Seems to be normal. Aliens do the same.

Here, maybe this will help :-) It's your file, slightly edited.

Having used the G3 (once), which is a FNFAL derivate, i simply have to do that.

Neat! Many thanks, added. (The old one remains for the M14, at least for now.)

Oh and here some music files from the game Syndicate war, i found them on youtube and converted them for you.

This can be handy, good job!

I found it while testing the battle simulator so this may be not applicable, but apparently Large Scouts have no text description for their Battlescape briefing, just strings.

Yes, it's normal for the Quick Battle generator. Especially if you use some subvariant of a UFO (like STR_LARGE_SCOUT_SECTOID).

"Commended!" is the name of a bonus available at Night Owl I.
What I found is that you didn't retain the Readiness bonus past level 2, but I think that's a separate issue.
No other problems were found, so please come back to me if there's anything left.

I'll leave this to Meridian, because I don't really understand.
Unless you mean that someone is awarded a medal, but not decorated? Decoration level 0 is a thing.

I like Battle-hardened. Patient needs something better I guess.

Incidentally, is it a bug if a thug spawns in an inaccessible garden?

If it's next to the edge, then it's normal. It's accessible, bun not from your position.

[HT]

I like Battle-hardened. Patient needs something better I guess.

Hardy? Guts? True Survivor? Survivor? Combat/Battle Survivor? True Grit?

One of these should work, since it's about surviving fatal injuries and recovering as if nothing had happened... In theory at least. Having one bullet scratch your knee and lose 5 HP and 1 Fatal wound can result is also being sent 20 days to the hospital compared to say have half your torso blown-up by plasma fire.

[Cynus_X]

I like Battle-hardened. Patient needs something better I guess.

On that note, I dont like the name of the commendation "Betrayer" either. If you are going as far as to call someone a betrayer, why keep him in the organisation?

"Teamkiller" or "Cross-eyed" would be better imo.

[TheCurse]

Judas.
When you say you got a lvl 5 judas in your team, its exactly clear what that is 

[TheCurse]

not sure if intended (or what the results are), but you can assign AIs to psi training...

EDIT: and just had some osiron guy shoot 1 wound (+some dmg) into a soldier wearing power armor. with a shotgun with AP ammo.
by any calculation i´ve done, that should not be possible.
(no dmg before, front armor, like 3 range. 1 shot...)

Hello, me again. Found another instance of a crash due to a missing .SCR, but I can't figure this one out. A little different than the previous one.

Spoiler:

Just unlocked Samael and the appropriate research of him, his staff and his legacy.

Indeed it's strange, but without seeing it, I can't say much.

A minor bug here:
Cubans seem to be getting czech names.

I currently have two of them, named Luboš Urban and Petra Kolářová.

Current active mods are: Aliens pick up weapons, Dark geoscape, X-Com Files

Hmm... Did you upgrade your campaign from 0.9.9.e2 (or earlier)?

No, I started it in 1.0.1.

[BoToJu]

Is there a typo in login screen? Seeing version "1.0.1". Ensured i've installed the 1.0.2 zip package.
