could you please try the ufo-2.1 version from our sourceforge.net project site and report whether the error is gone there?

in version 2.1 dev the error is gone but i found some missing translations in german version  :P

instead the first word is german but twohanded and 1 handed in the descriptions are not translated

edit1: the error in RC5 appears when i try to build a base in single player and in multiplayer it appears when i join a game (im also hosting that game)

I got the error using SVN trunk (fresh game start, new campaign, build base then the error). Although this happened after many many tries.

As far as I can tell SVN trunk and 2.1 dev are not very different at the moment...

The bug was reproduceable (at least in trunk SVN): see http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1563368&group_id=157793&atid=805242

However it should now be fixed as of SVN trunk r3870 (note: the blank commit message for this revision was an error on my part, but I included notes to cover r3870 in the commit log for r3871).

In RC5 it presumably does affect single-player if you switch from multiplayer mode to a single-player campaign. Although I thought I encountered it purely in single-player mode before, I'm not so sure now.

well i reinstalled rc5 again to test some more stuff and fell over a lot more errors.
it seems multiplayer mess up single player totally.
when ya start a game in single player ya build base (no error this time :P )
ya do first mission with aliens - finish it sucessfully.
save game goto main menu and go into multiplayer (not host just go in first sub menu under multiplyer.
console brings message disable buy aircraft.
now go back to singelplayer and load ya game.
when ya do now a mission there is no aliens anymore you get team chat and chat option.if you kill one npc(civilist) mission is won.
i also noticed that ther are only 4 of 8 members at the map.

edit1: is there a console command  to log what the console is writing?

edit1: just foud out it auto log the console.
         well there is something very interesting.here is the part i hope it                            
         might help ya.
         i created a multiplayer game played it then u created a single player game and this is what the console log is telling

Thanks everyone for investigating these bugs.

The second-base dropship error is certainly a major problem which looks like it relates to what I was (trying) to fix the other day. I'll have a look into it as soon as I can.

The switching from multiplayer to singleplayer has always had bugs I think (but we have been busy fixing other bugs to really look into this properly). Now that the game is starting to stablise though I'll certainly investigate this too.

the switching from single- to multiplayer is fixed in trunk (but maybe there are some glitches left) - at least the map won't restart if you start a singleplayer game after a multiplayer game (or a map started via console map-command)

Czert, the crash when selecting a base after building a second base with a new dropship hangar should now be fixed in SVN trunk rev 3897.

If anyone testing the SVN trunk version discovers any more "CL_UpdateHireVal" error messages, please report here or at http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1564035&group_id=157793&atid=805242

Edit: I just discovered another major bug though. Loading saved-games with more than one base seems to crash... something else I will look into :)
