Funds Glitch
« on: November 03, 2018, 05:32:33 pm »
Hello. I just installed the nightly in order to play TFTD (I had a previous version that ran the original UFO fine). Both games work however I am encountering a glitch in which my funds aren't displaying properly. Does anyone know how to fix this? It occurs in both UFO and TFTD. Here is an example of what I mean.

this is likely a result of recent changes to string handling within the engine, it should be sorted out soon.
please keep an eye out for any other weird string issues and feel free to report them, but next time i recommend the built-in screenshot button (F12)

Sorry just to clarify is there an upcoming patch to fix this issue? Also thanks for the screenshot info, it didn't realize you could take screenshots in openxcom.

Yes, a patch will come soon-ish.

In the meantime, you can try a version that is a few days older and should not have this bug: https://openxcom.org/git_builds/openxcom_git_master_2018_10_29_0715.zip
