Fixed jukebox sounds like a thing that deserves to be in a main mod  ::).

Well, now it is :)
Check out the newest nightly on GitHub.

Some songs are still placeholders, and in one case there's no title because I have no idea where it came from, but since you guys insisted - there you go. Please confirm if it works.

In the latest snapshot, USO text strings are missing (STR_USO_*_FRAME).

Nice, thank you.

Looks like PREDATOR has slipped through (from The Root of All Evil, STR_BLACK_LOTUS_SHRINE)

Hurray! My "music" efforts was not in vain ::)

1) TENSION_IN_THE_UNDERBELL - I personally don't know. IMHO, it has more ghostly/otherwordly vibe, rather than tech/cyberpunk. Still at least it loops, time will tell.
2) BTW, did you happen to check tracks from UFO Online: Invasion? Not so famous and half dead project with awesome tracks. And no, it has little in common with x-com genre.
3) NAYDEAD.ogg is from x-files. s7e13 "First Person Shooter". Here, time 28:00: https://rutube.ru/video/2eb68a8c47761a9026f2aba1b2b5286d/?t=1693&r=plwd
Didn't found in ost, but it not full. Although found this interesting track: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rp4vwCQ4cs0&list=PLmwfwq3gBL_CkEGAagj9sfJuKa_wnlaOi&index=5

I asure you it was the best so far.
Perhaps it's time to buy subscription on Suno to be able to experiment more. I don't really do music much, though...

Nah, I haven't.

Not bad, but I'm trying to avoid big name music now.

An ancient bug of untranslatable messages in the repair script for mechanical units with repair kits: these lines should be moved to the “extraStrings” section, and in the text of the script should be replaced by “STR_SOMETHING” constructs, to be able to translate these lines, as it is done in the “Flashbang damage script”.

In the snapshot, finishing the MIB attack on MAGMA base mission (which includes a MIB stealth bomber) gives you *10* MIB stealth bomber hull frames. I suspect it is intended to give only one, like with other enemy craft. I have no idea what would be the point of 10 identical frames anyway.

Got a pop up error message when I attempt to board the x dimension drednaught.
I've attached screen shot and the log entry.

Indeed you're right, but I already caught and fixed this issue.

Cyberdrednaught doesn't even have craft data, as it does not land and can never create a crash site (because it only has 1 HP). So it's not a surprise the game crashes, but it is a surprise you managed to down this UFO without destroying it... I'd like to know how. :)

Not sure how that was achieved, but perhaps setting the unmanned property to 'true' for this UFO would be better. It would even allow you to change the UFO health to another value more befitting a drednaught. Altho I guess the shield value is there to offset this low HP.

While I'm at it, UFOs:
- STR_SABOTEUR, and
- STR_MIB_ESCORT_SHIP
have an 'invalid' size, STR_MEDIUM, should be STR_MEDIUM_UC.

Low HP is fine, they're supposed phase out after their shield is gone.
But adding "unmanned" is a good idea.

Lol, how did the game even work like this. ;D THis error has been there since 2.9.

Fixed now.
