CTRL + move (LMB) - it should activate running, but it`s not. Why?
Have you enabled advanced movement options (or whatever it's called) in hte options? Have you checked your key bindings?

Solarius, I might be missing something here, but STR_WETWARE_JOB doesn't have a corresponding entry eventscripts. Is this intended?

EDIT:
I'm also getting warnings regarding the "improved" large workshop sprite:
Code: [Select]
[WARN] Image Resources/Facilities/LW_1.png (from lodepng) has incorrect transparent color index 241 (instead of 0).
[WARN] Image Resources/Facilities/LW_2.png (from lodepng) has incorrect transparent color index 241 (instead of 0).
[WARN] Image Resources/Facilities/LW_3.png (from lodepng) has incorrect transparent color index 241 (instead of 0).
[WARN] Image Resources/Facilities/LW_4.png (from lodepng) has incorrect transparent color index 241 (instead of 0).

Hello.
I have a bug to report.
Heavy Crossbow Tritanium Bolts can not be loaded into the Heavy Crossbow.

Indeed, a bug...

I'll release a fixed version soonish, for now have this hotfix.

Also a bug.

Shouldn't be an issue.

If it wasn't an issue, we wouldn't bother giving you a warning.

Yes, that's why I said "shouldn't"... but the effect is not visible in the game.

Fixed it anyway to be a good boy.

You don't leave a person bondaged overnight. The police does.

And it still can cause problems if you don't do it properly, like nerve damage.
Also, I thought they would stay restrained only for transport, I guess no?

Well, you can hurt people by negligence in a lot of situations, the point is that it's relatively harder to kill a guy with classic handcuffs.

Like I said, that's how it's supposed to be.

I guess we don't want tricky ninjas becoming logs of wood while we go away to get some coffee...

(That's a Naruto reference, btw)

I'm having some battlescape issues with (female) agent heads and i'm not sure if this is something that I might have messed up or if it is a general palette issue. See pink spots around the head of the agent in the lower left corner in this screenshot:

Indeed it's an impassable route which should be fixed, but I'll tell you that the enemy isn't there. :)

Could you please tell me which avatar this is? I'll check.

Code: [Select]
        gender: 1
        look: 2
        lookVariant: 26
Not sure which sprite that is exactely, give me a minute or two to look that up.

EDIT:
Nevermind, I have no idea how the game handles different skin colors. This happens (so far) with the worksuit, the normal suit and the suit/vest combo.

...Mei? F42?

I have yet to understand how the game handles those or where they are defined. Is there an easier why to look these up beside going through them one by on in the inventory screen?
