Title: Cannot select niether base or mission
Post by: blackswan on April 27, 2009, 08:11:23 am

If the red "X" on the world map, that mark a new mission available, is randomly positioned too near a base, I cannot select niether the mission or the base. If I try it will open a windows that show me the details of the mission, but I can't select the mission so the game inevitably go to a loss.

blackswan,

Have u tried to zoom in further?? (PS: U on 3D Geoscape right?). Zooming in will help u see the mission differentiating from the installation / base. :D

Alright. That would really be good and helpful.

You could use mouse scroll or the buttons.....

Yes, u should really get 17" to 21" on ur wishlist indeed.
19" norm panel is good. Try not to go for widescreen, from experience, it sux.
