Base is under attack but no aliens, no mission...
« on: July 05, 2010, 02:25:03 pm »
I have a saved game where the base in South America has apparently been under attack for quite a while; I didn't notice till a UFO flew right over it without getting shot down.

I can transfer stuff there, build new facilities and so on (and even sent personnel there) but can't do research, equipping or UFO intercepts.

Is there any simple way of fixing this?

Ta muchly

Ah, I think I may have just lost a game I've spent months playing... the problem is within all saves. Ah, well... back to the drawing board! I'll try a fresh build first though

I've finally managed to get 2.4 to complete its compile using Muton's script, without falling over at any point... but when I run it, I get as far as the splash screen and it immediately hangs. I'm attaching an export of the logs and saves.

I've tried recompiling everything from scratch, and completely refreshing the svn...

As for 2.3, I've given up trying. I cannot get it to compile at all.

EDIT: Ignore this post; it's finally working. No idea what's changed; I just set it going again and copied the config files across from the 2.3 folder, just as before, but this time it started working.
