Not sure if intentional or an oversight, but the platforms in front of the Skyraider's side doors (both of them) do not act like floors. People just fall through, despite them looking solid. It should either be possible to walk on them or they should be deleted. I would prefer the former.

Not sure if this is the right place for this but I seem to have generated a mission where the tileset has laid out in such a way that some of the play area and enemies are isolated/inaccesible. Is this supposed to be possible? Save file attached -- Chtonian minibase mission.

Works as intended, though maybe it could be a bit clearer to the player. Platforms would be too good.

Heh, typical. Thanks, will fix.

Mining equipment sometimes come in handy, but I can't remember ever needing it on this mission...

Not sure if it's a bug or not, but I got two missions on the exact same Geoscape location.

It is not a bug.

Thanks. Sorry for not searching it first. But I didnt like the look to click through 144 pages with unsure result. Some FAQ or known bugs would be nice.

Hi all, thanks for the work on the mod so far. Currently on the first turn in a base defence mission (save file attached) and my minigun drones all have 0 ammo - I think they're carrying the ammo in the left hand slot and can't find a way to load it. Or do I need to have the standard minigun ammo around for them? The laser drones work just fine btw.

you need to reload first (hotkey R).
dunno why they come unloaded...

as far as I can tell all drones have 0 ammo each time you change drone armor (true also for the coelecanth. If the flying drone had a taser equipped it is also unequipped) so yes reload drones weapons before each mission

A bug : the macro flamer I took on a Minotaur has a throwing experience on stats for nerds (I haven't used it with my troops because of the weight)

It is not a bug, but feature. All flamethrowers have throwing exp. Btw, flamethrowers are the most efficient weapon to train throwing accuracy among all throwing ones.

Is there a public git repository with Issue / Bug tracker?
It is hard to find out if my problems are still reported or not.
