So, set Snapshot as the reaction fire and you'll get more reaction fire... That makes sense, I'll have to take a look at my squads.

Yes, that works, thanks! Had to re-equip everyone, but thanks to this, I actually found one of my 'unused' troopers (not assigned to a dropship, left on Base garrison) was actually a better Sniper...

well, you can exchange weapons.
Yes, but then you can't give the most skilled their preferred weapon.

didn't check, because i really haven't felt like playing lately, but i think you can probably reorder soldiers when you fire/hire them, and probably also transfer.
I can't see how...

Hmm... that's good, I think. Can't think of a downside. There will be one, I'm sure...

Bugs prior to release 2.4 / Re: manor House map bug?

The best is to attach a screenshot in these cases too.
Yeah, I wish I'd thought about it at the time. If the mission reappears I will.

Discussion / Reordering squad?
« on: April 23, 2012, 11:29:47 pm »
Is there any way to change the order of my squad members? In 2.3.1 I had my No.1 with the Sniper Rifle, and I'm finding it annoying remembering that she's now No.4 (or 5... or something). Can I change their place in the squad? I know I can change the names to indicate this, but I like having standard squads, and when I get 2 or 3 bases with dropships I want them to have the same setup...

Bugs prior to release 2.4 / manor House map bug?
« on: April 23, 2012, 11:26:04 pm »
My apologies if this is inadequate as a report, or if it's been reported already. In playing a mission at the Manor House (I think that was the name, big house, complex map of many layers & ramps, UFO on the helipad out to the right as you start), I found a problem in movement.

The garden pond seems to have a large impassible area around it, where my squaddies would not go. Combined with the benches & hedges, and a stray civilian in the area, it posed a huge obstacle. The movement box just would not appear within about 2 squares or so around the visible water, possibly a rectangle the size of it's largest dimensions.

I'm not sure what question I should be asking here...

Back in 2.3.1 my squads were set to multiple Reaction Fire (except the grenade launcher...) unless I needed the AP. But in 2.4 restart, I can only set Reaction Fire off or on - no multiple shots. Thing is, I seem to remember that being the case in the past, when I started playing...

So, has this changed in 2.4? Do the squaddies need to have a minimum limit for multiple shots? Or am I missing something?

Windows / Re: 2.3.1 saves in 2.4?

As the 3-round-burst-mode was removed from the grenade launcher anyway in 2.5-dev, maybe he just decided it is time to retire ?
Oh... it's still in 2.4 - and the new gang are shaping up well.

Fair enough, I can get the early game right this time!

I'll miss Rolf though...

Windows / 2.3.1 saves in 2.4?
« on: April 16, 2012, 01:02:49 am »
First post and it's a begging letter - sorry folks!

The downloads page seems to suggest that I can use my 2.3.1 saved campaign with the 2.4 release. However, when I install 2.4 (in the same directory), it says the save is there, but doesn't load it. I copied over the save, since the files in the save directory looked to be more recent (yes, I backed the old one up), and it still didn't load...

Is it possible to use 2.3.1 saves in  2.4? I have a pretty good, advanced campaign saved, and I'd hate to lose Rolf Harris as a 90%+ shot with a Grenade Launcher... 8)
