OXCE (OpenXcom Extended) main thread

[MoonKid]

I migrated from Debian 11 to 12 via a fresh install.
Now when I start OpenXcomEx I got a black tiny window with the title "OpenXcom Extended 7.1.2 (v2024-02-24).

I would say everything is installed and configured as in the previouse system. I just copied the ~/.config/openxcom from the old to the new system. I installed the libsdl components.

Never saw such a window. Starting this in terminal doesn't give much usable output. The window closes itself after pressing any keyboard key. The output is just

$ ./OpenXcomEx
INFO: WARNING: this app used SDL_KillThread(), an unforgivable curse.
This program should be fixed. No thread was actually harmed.


For testing purpose I removed the ~/.config/openxcom folder. The behavior does not changed. So I assume the config itself is not the reason.

When will you add a counter for lost armored vehicles to statistics? This is the third year of conversations, but there is no result.

I am not the author of this video.

I am not aware of any conversation or suggestion.

Can you link the conversation thread or the suggestion thread?

Smoke and tanks. In addition, the tank - it's TANK! And it's not so easy to kill even with heavy plasma. In addition, there are a bunch of robots and cyborgs, behind which the infantry hides, like a shield. Armored vehicles lost a lot, yes, but for it there are no strings in the statistics.

That's in the OXC suggestions board, I don't really read that.

But ok, I can have a look.

bug?
(motion scanner) revealed yellow arrow [Alt] is not working after scan+save+load

[psavola]

I have thought it was a feature i.e. the game information where you have used motion scanner is not saved in the save, and the state is therefore not preserved on reload.

[aziza]

I have thought it was a feature

then, after load, is it worth return back your TU, which you spent on scanning before saving?

it is intended

[pedroterzero]

Hi Meridian, https://openxcom.org/oxce/release/ is gone, is that intentional?

It's what my pipelines use to check for new versions (and then build the docker/appimage).

If it is intended, where should I look instead?

[Meridian]

No, it's not intentional.

I will ask SupSuper for help.

[pedroterzero]

No, it's not intentional.

It seems to have returned, my pipelines no longer fail. Thanks!

[aziza]

how to check whether this recruit killed anyone in this mission or not?
so that 5 soldiers kill 1 alien each and not one soldier kills five
