soldiers getting stuck on / between furniture

(1/3) > >>

Voller:
I've encountered this bug a few times now. When inside a building it sometimes happens that a soldier gets stuck on top of a sofa or between several bits of furniture. By "getting stuck" I mean that the cursor box is blue afterwards, so you can't walk anywhere anymore. I would attach a screen shot, but I don't know where UFO:AI saved it to.

XaverXN:
-When running Linux, screenshots are found somewhere in ~/.ufoai/[version]/scrnshots

-When running Windows, they are in (i dont know what the exact folder names are in english, but I think you'll find it) C:\documents and settings\[username]/application data\UFOAI\[version]\scrnshots . Note that 'application data' is a hidden folder with default settings.

- I think that bug is known generally but can't be dealt with overall and has to be fixed in the maps, so we would need a list of where this can happen...

Voller:
Thanks, I found it (windows). Maybe the default directory for screenshots should be changed to the actual game directory. The hidden applications folder is not the most obvious place to look ;)

About the maps: I can take a look through them and make a list if you like. I will need some help there though:

1. I found that I can run any map by typing map ... in the console, but I start without soldiers. How can I get around that?
2. Is there a way I can make aliens a little less interested in my soldiers so I can explore the maps without the danger of being shot at?

Thanks

XaverXN:
Solving two problems at once: :-)

Start a game (or load one), open console and type 'devmap [mapname]' ...
Just you, no aliens, no civilians, end of your turn=beginning of your next turn ... VERY useful for testing purposes!

A list would be great, thank you a lot! (Mattn, shout if I'm wrong ;-) )

Voller:
Good, that ought to save me a few head aches :P

Another thing: can I get the co-ordinates (in map space) of the cursor anywhere? I wouldn't need to take screenshots if I can just write down the coordinates of any problems I find.
