« on: January 20, 2013, 05:10:33 pm »
Phalanx in-house Super detective Tembero has found a security flaw within the Phalanx R&D Network. Upon loss of a UFO Yard on Geoscape to enemy Harvester 10 Scientists have gone Missing presumed Ortnok Dinner, these scientists were known to be researching UFO Theory at the time and have vanished with the materials/UFO fighter craft they were assigned to. This is code red boys, we need those scientists returned.

Isn't that exactly what one would expect to happen? A big bad ufo came and destroyed the storage facility with the ufo in it, collaterally taking out the scientist working on it?

Maybe so, but my Phalanx staff should be sturdier and remove their personal effects from the living quarters and return them to their families, RIP to their 32-bit 3d models graphical souls 'n all.

+ is it possible to rename a threads title (to something more topically specific) once your amusement at a notion has subsided?

If you edit the first post, it should let you change the topic title. Interesting bug report, btw. ;D

It appears that a repeat of the event has not concluded identically on a similar situation, this time I was researching UFO Theory as opposed to a particular craft and my scientists were returned to base with a grammatically incorrect message pertaining to the subject. 'Prerequisites met not, research halted', (I had a look for the text output .cpp to patch grammar but could not find it someone passing may spot it).

I had already submitted this as a bug ticket, but it is appearing further to be a 1-off bug.
