When loading the attached savegame and entering the battlescape - either immediately or after moving a bit around, this assertion error occurs:

ufo: src/client/cl_actor.c:4478: CL_AddActor: Assertion `add.model' failed.

Richlv could reproduce it.

I added some debug logging and investigated. The error occurs because some actor attempts to put weapon #34 into the right hand. When loading the game it seems like weapon #34 is a knife - but csi.ods[34].isDummy is set to 1 and the knife is not loaded.

I cannot figure out where the weapon names and numbers and isDummy is defined.

adding a full bt, hopefully that helps at least a bit

I managed to "work around" this bug by editing one line in src/client/cl_main.c:

...though I still don&#039;t know what isDummy is for, whether it&#039;s important or not, and where it&#039;s defined.
