Hi
Here's a list of bugs/glitches I've found in svn trunk-version: Alien Invasion 2.1-dev2 i386 Dec 9 2006 Linux. They're in a sort of importance order.
-Plasma/tachyon weapons stay "not yet researchable" after everything else has been researched. Note also the text overlapping the # of scientist display.
screenshot-The menu option Aircraft-Buy/sell aircraft hangs the game, so you can't purchase aircraft to new bases. Here's the backtrace:

-Skill stats of the rookies: I wrote about this earlier. Doesn't really make sense that the newly hired soldiers are superior to the old and more experienced ones. On the screenshot there is a squad leader with skill stats avg. 50 and a rookie with skill stats avg. 88. Like this, it's more efficient to dump the vets and use only rookies ...
Squad leaderRookie-Map village07 has a spot that you could walk into on one turn and on the next one the character was stuck there. (I wasn't able to catch it as it happened, since I played fullscreen & with mousegrab)
screenshot-Dunhill-mission (random?) map: the 2nd floor of the warehouse building is not walkable
-On the production menu the mouse cursor seems to go off-sync with the selected row (at least on 1280x1024 resolution). When you point to the lower part of the list, the highlight "lags" behind.
-The shotgun (secondary weapon) graphic is plain gray
screenshot-Renaming base has a quite weird bug: the text-box doesn't allow you to type some letters in caps more then once. After this activates you can only type them upper case with caps lock on and pressing shift (which is really just what it should not be ...). To reproduce: try to rename base for example "Type Text". You can write "Type" but not the capital T at the "Text". Also after that some other keys stop working with shift.
And to not just be on the negative side, sound problems I've experienced earlier seem to be gone. The sound still occasionally stops on alien/civilian turns, but there is no more that constant static/crackling.
Keep up the good work.
