Hi everyone!

I used to be a big X_COM-Fan. A few hours ago, I downloaded UFO:AI and spent some time to get myself into it. Now I have a few Questions. Is there a manual, a bit more comprehensive than the one here? I have a few problems, i.e. I can't do research, and some Soldiers start a mission without weapons although I equipped them, to mention a few.

Are such problems user-problems or game-problems (because it's a beta-version, thats what I mean)

THX in advance,
Gnoxx

The problems you mention lie with the game. Research isn't implemented yet in the demo you're playing, and the equipment problem is a bug. The bug is fixed in the current codebase, and Hoehrer has implemented a lot of the research system already, too. You have two choices - either wait for the next beta (no ETA), or compile the latest SVN revision.

As for a manual, there is none. I don't think there will be one in the foreseeable future, either.

Ok, thanks! Then I guess I'll have to wait vor the next BETA, since I'm not very good in all this programming-stuff and I don't think that I'll be able to compile anything.
Which is hard, because what I've seen so far made me really hungry for the rest of the Game!  

Keep Up The Good WORK!
