Bugs, crashes, typos & bad taste

Hi, just installed everything correctly "I think" but when I go to try and boot it up it gives me this error

[ERROR]   failed to load 'X-Com Files'; mod disabled
Weapon STR_HUMAN_SONIC_SHOTGUN has clip size 0 and no ammo defined. Please use 'clipSize: -1' for unlimited ammo, or allocate a compatibleAmmo item.

Any help? I tried to manually change the clipsize but I dont know where to find it

It could be that you have both unarchived mod and mod archive in the user/mods folder. If that's the case, remove archive. In my experience it messes up OXC loading.

Happy new year everybody!

You need OXCE (OpenXcom Extended), not OXC.

For future, please always attach the whole log file, not just one line.

I don't know if there is anything you can reasonably do about this but I find that the civilians, especially unarmed ones are far too suicidal. Like, I've seen them charge in to punch aliens and monsters. Is this intended or a bug or just something you can't do anything about?

It's part of the fun 
Annoying  ? Yes. But I find the civilians blocking door entrances 5 turns in a row even more annoying.
There is only so much you can take before you simply stun them.

What, you don't think priests should charge angry dogs and try to bless them?

Immersion breaking more than annoying really. Like, I'd expect them to run around in panic.

Thank you! My dumbass thought that having OXCE installed would be enough, turns out I had to create a user folder IN OXCE and then put the mod there so when I open OXCE it all works

If civilians were to run and hide somewhere, the game balance would be slightly thrown off. Missions would be simple and the only objective would be the enemy.

However, I do sympathize with you. I totally get it.
I just believe there is a reason behind it. Now, weather that be a sinister reason ? Very debatable

A solution would be not giving civilian "armors" in-built attacks.

But would it be correct? It would mean that if some other unit used the same "armor" (such as undercover X-COM operatives, or hostiles), they too would have no unarmed strike.

One thing I noticed about soldiers bio updates. There is no way to access what has been done to a solider.
Unless I missed it somewhere. I did the "Olympianism" update to 2 of my guys (Amazing feature by the way) but could not find a way to visually see what updates my agents have had done to them.

The most logical place would be the "Agent tab/screen".

The only indicator I could see is in the battle screen avatar. (the hallo above their face).

You did.

[Chuckebaby]

You did.

There it is. thanks Juku.
Never even noticed it.

Scorpoids have "stealthy" in their description, but don't have camo.

Also, every single Shogg encounter is rendered almost null by having flying gear - spiders, scorpoids, antmen, zombies. Strixes, stingrifles, and antmen spit do spice up things a little, but it's still pretty bland.
Maybe add some flying variants or straight up gift them a couple of gauss rifles?

Hiding would be lame, that is true. Rather I envision them running around like headless chickens screaming while trying to go in general terms in the opposite direction of what ever alien/monster is in their LOS.
