Title: Why is my lost base still operational (partially at least? :D)
Post by: Tlactar on September 12, 2009, 04:23:30 am

Just went into fast forward mode and lost a battle for my main Base using auto mode ;)

Now i wonder... why can i still launch Aircraft from it? All the buildings are still there, too...
At least research/production/storage won't work anymore :D

In the Aircraft screen it says they were on red alert - great... but i can't end it / capture my base back...

attached are a save and the log

Version is r26082 by Destructavator

You didn't lost it yet, the mission not finished. Are you sure, you selected auto mission?
Anyway you shouldn't be able to enter a base which being attacked. I'll check this.

Further investigations revealed that the mission was finished but the base didn't destroy. That was caused by this critical bug I found in your ufoconsole.log:

Code: [Select]

ERROR: AL_ChangeAliveAlienNumber: Can't add/remove -6 live aliens, (capacity: 10/10, Alien Containment Status: 0)

I fixed the bug caused this but your save is corrupted. You can fix it by running the following command from game console but only on version r26186 or greater:

Code: [Select]

debug_destroybase 0

Thanks for reporting.

no problem ;)

What exactly is supposed to happen when i lose a base? I guess it should completely disappear from the map, right? In other bases without alien containment i lose some buildings when i get attacked and lose, but the bases always stay on the map. Or is that caused by the same bug?
Oh, and yes, i did use Auto Mission for sure.

For know, every other building than entrance destroyed, employee killed, etc.
Later it will be completely destroyed, but there is still a problem why I haven't enable that...

ok, got my base destroyed the way it's meant to be ;) Now there's only one glitch left: it does still store the antimatter, even without the antimatter containment :D

in addition: the losing screen makes the game freeze... r26164
