Can you tell me what to choose in new battle simulator to get such a map?

The deployment is STR_ZOMBIE_CATACOMBS "Zombie Catacombs", and the race is STR_ZOMBIE_STERILE "Zombie".

Yeah, still crashes.

Anytime you click on any tile on the top level, which has terrainLevel = -24.

Ever since the AK47 change, I think maybe gangers shouldn't have them, and pioneers should : gangers with AK's are very much a huge threat to the XCOM soldiers, while pioneers with pistols are not.

not even saying they can never have them : but Its odd the higher rank has less formidable guns generally speaking.

I hear you, but then I'll have to add something to replace them. Maybe SKS? I have the bigob.

SKS would be a GOOD fit, yes...powerful, accurate, and formidable, but not an absolute jack of all trades like the AK47, but still enough to cause worry.

mainly, I want to have situations where pioneers are generally more formidable targets than some no name ganger with an AK : plus capturing pioneers can be fairly easy, even with just kevlar, because their pistols make them easy to approach.

Hi, Solar!

Here's a list of newly found bugs.

Quote
becoming a sdoldier race

STR_MICROGRAV_UFOPEDIA - the portrait of the chief engineer is misplaced. It went to the lower right corner of the form :).

Missing strings: STR_DIMENSION_X (I think it should be replaced by STR_DIMENSION_X_FAUNA), STR_MESSAGE_FROM MAGMA_04

And I don't know if it's a bug or not, but the article Dog Bite can be found in the Reports section of the UFOpedia. It looks more suitable to the Field Equipment section but I'm not sure.

I also have a question: what does elec mean? I couldn't identify the word standing behind this abbreviation.

It's electricity, I guess.

I didn't think it was that simple :). Thanks for the clarification.

"Launch Interception" window shows very long times of refueling. When you open "equip craft" window you can see way shorter time (3h vs 1h).
My interceptor has 95% fuel, Interception window shows 3h, equip craft 1h refuel time.

The other 2 hours are probably for rearming.

No, after this 1h interceptor was refueled and ready to go (also in the interceptor window).
I did second test and there is something in there about rearming as well - I do not have enough ammo to rearm 2 guns, but it still takes 1h each to tell me there is not enough ammo to rearm. So at the beginning it was saying rearming 7h, after 2h it says refuelling 5h, but in equip craft says 3h. After those 3h it is actually refueled.
