Testing base attack tactical mission?

[Linzer]

Hi all,
I have experienced the "crash when starting the base attack tactical mission" syndrome that was reported by several others. I would like to test the current CVS version for that problem.

It is easy to start any of the maps through the console, but is there a way I can trigger an attack on my base, for testing purposes?
Thanks.

When you have a base built, /mission baseattack in console.

Thanks!

Which allows me to confirm that the bug is still there...

Greetings all.

I was able to do and complete a base attack with no bugs, but it did prompt a question or two. Basically after I killed the 4 aliens coming out of the hanger, the mission ended.

My question is will the aliens still only enter the base from the Hanger and Main entrance way, a la the original Xcom games? The reason I ask this is because other then the Radar station, it looks like all of the other I  had at this auxillery base had an entrance on the surface.

The base had the following:
Small Hanger
Main Entrance
Storage
Power Plant
Command Center

Now, I personally would prefer that that restrict the aliens to using the Main Entrance and Hangers because if not then the defenders will easily find themselves being over runned.

Thanks for the great game.

This is the current behaviour. Who knows what will bring the future.
