(aliens are in scout mode).
It can move to any node.
That's the point.

Why are you even using all those empty levels on the bottom?
To add "floating in the middle of abyss" effect.

Upd.: I found a way to fight this behavior. Will fix with next update.

1. Are there barges guarded by freaks or lobstermen present in the game? Perhaps, it makes some sense to add chance to have such a luck. 2. What apparatus is needed to destroy to finish biolab mission successfully without killing all the aliens? Anything I destroyed did not bring me a message allowing to abort mission safely. May be I am wrong.

To fix Aquatoids, you can probably just remove the 2 doors going off the ship (on the sides).

To fix Hallucinoids, you can just set the "cheatTurn: 999" for this specific alien deployment.

He he. Hallucinoids are all right. Probably i need to add a couple of words about them in alert description.
Flying units (floating? Swimming?) can get out of barge.

1. There can be six races, including tasoth.
2. Control center placed on the lowest level,easyest way is to fly down and shoot through floor with something capable of breaching walls.

Aquatoids, armored aquatoids, gillmen, armored gillmen, tasoths and nagas. No place for lobstermen and freaks.

Yes.
I think lobstermen are warriors and freaks are half-warriors, half-rulers. None of them are workers, gathering resources and catching fish...

Quick fix for sufficient bug:
Replace this file.
Mediafire

Bug is real for those who played more than 16 months, and still dont find martian battleship.

It is possible by two ways: routes leading non-flying units out of roof(No, checked four times), or breaking  existing floor(also no, no such weapons they have).
It is possible to make holes in the floor in barge with magna-pack explosives using the game option to add more damage. The aliens may fall to the bottom of the dark screen.

  This situation is not bug. I wanted such things to happen.
Now maps was fixed, and aliens (and aquanauts) can not step off the barge roof. Except of floating ones, of course.

Thanks.
There are a few images with incorrect transparency index.
Attached are fixed images.

Code: [Select]
[WARN] Image Resources/Basebits/Moray.gif (from SDL) have set incorrect transparent color index 255 instead of 0
[WARN] Image Resources/Inticon/MorayMinimized.gif (from SDL) have set incorrect transparent color index 255 instead of 0
[WARN] Image Resources/Inticon/MorayDogfight.gif (from SDL) have set incorrect transparent color index 255 instead of 0
[WARN] Image Resources/Ufopaedia/Moray_UP.gif (from SDL) have set incorrect transparent color index 255 instead of 0

I see this is still an issue in 2.25... would be nice to fix, so it doesn't pop up in the log all the time.
Fix is attached to the original post.
