How do I enter a downed ship?

[Madwand99]

I'm a newbie who just started playing UFO: AI and I'm having some serious interface problems. I send my dropship with 8 soldiers to a downed UFO, but I can't figure out how to get into the tactical screen. No amount of left or right-clicking does anything past the dialog box where I am asked to "Enter" or "Auto mission". The latter option appears to be greyed out, so I choose "Enter", and... nothing happens. I am at the "world map" screen and I have no idea how to start fighting aliens! Can anyone help?

I attempted to create the symlink specified in your link, but I found out that:

1) /usr/share/ufoai/base/game.so does not exist (there is no ufoai directory there)

2) game.so is already in the correct location, in /usr/lib/games/ufoai/base/game.so

Yet this error still occurs. What's going on?

The game search the lib in

2012/01/01 21:10:04 not found at '/usr/local/lib/ufoai'
2012/01/01 21:10:04 not found at '/home/proper/.ufoai/2.3.1/base'
2012/01/01 21:10:04 not found at './base'
2012/01/01 21:10:04 not found at '/usr/local/share/ufoai/base'

Then u can create a symlink here, there, here, or there

And maybe u also must create subdirs, mkdir /usr/local/share/ufoai/base/, with right visibility.

ln -s /usr/lib/games/ufoai/base/game.so /usr/local/share/ufoai/base/game.so
