Unfortunately I already saved on that position, but I can tell you what happened. A large ship landed with terminators and the game crashed when one of them panicked. In the future I will make a copy.

In the meantime I have a save with a space hulk mission. Sometimes at the start of the second phase of the mission a carnifex gets a starting position where it gets stuck in a small room on lvl2 and since it is standing on an elevator space, there is no way getting to it.

Warp stone when destroyed crahed the game due the damage tile being  wrong , so terminator panicked and hit warp stone
New version solved it


I fixed that spawn long time ago, but i will confirme it again
Maybe there arent other spawn points in that map generation

Hi bullet,

can you check the "northwall object" in the tile at the cursor from the screenshot?
Is it necessary?
And if not, why is it there?

The tile contains a visible "object object", and also this invisible(?) "northwall object", which blocks LOF, but doesn't get highlighted by the obstacle indicator... because it is invisible.

[bulletdesigner]

it was necessary since before unit´s leave exit that door in a diagonal way that look very strange so that was the immediate solution, to create the path where the unit leave the door with the correct direction.
the plan is a north wall that is invisible just to create the correct path

[Meridian]

I don't understand, is that diagonal wall a door?
And if yes, can't you just not make it a door?

[bulletdesigner]

let me explain better by image. The red wall prevents unit when leaving the craft from yellow door, to not fallow arrow path 1 and go arrow path 2

I've found two ways to fix the pathing bug and allow for Meridian's no-LOF obstacle indicator to work with this map - the first is to set all the LOFTemps for tile 81 in the MCD to 0 and the stop LOS byte (31) to 0 so the transparent wall is only there for the sake of pathing and not LOS/LOF.  The second is to remove this transparent wall and set the big wall byte (33) on the diagonal walls to 1 to be a whole-tile object.

Attached are pictures of both of these settings in MCDEdit.

I am no mapmaking expert, but the second solution sounds good to me.

done deal

Yeah if you don't want an object to be passable by diagonal, always set the "big wall" to true (1).

The Tzeentch Sorcerer is mis-named "Tzeentch Sorcerer Corpse" as the live unit, just a mislabeled string - STR_TZEENTCH_LEADER.

There are some ufopedia problems:
- There are too many categories, which do not fit in the corresponding window (screen000 attached)
- Spelling: "standard" instead of "standart" (screen002)
- Some texts are too long and cannot be read (see attached screenshots)

1- There are too many categories, which do not fit in the corresponding window (screen000 attached)
2- Spelling: "standard" instead of "standart" (screen002)
3- Some texts are too long and cannot be read

1- True, i will ask for it
2- True, just corrected
3- True, i got to revise those ( text area is a bit short sometimes)
thks for the headsup
