well i'm sorry i found a regression.

go in a base were you have dropship and interceptor. if your hangar "preselect" an interceptor in the hangar (see above) and you switch to dropship then the soldier tab does not appear. if you switch back to interceptor soldier tab appear.

yes it works thanks.

i also observed that if you select the 3rd aircraft in your hangar and then switch base, you will also have the 3rd aircraft selected in the new base. if you don't have 3, no bugs  .

is that possible to produce a stilleto in a base that don't have a interceptor hangar???

In french there is a saying telling that who is capable of the best thing is also capable of normal thing... so i alway asked myself why interceptor does not fit in the dropship hangard.

Feature Requests / alien translation

« on: August 16, 2011, 11:52:41 am »

hi

i was working on UFO-AI translation strings, what can be fun is to have a alien language for uo-ai... just think of automatic alien translation to ease this language maintenance.

it's only for the local on server ... what to use...   but .. that could be fun (and useless).

FAQ / Re: Sniper rifle as accurate as a slingshot!

« on: August 15, 2011, 11:04:53 am »

i guess after a crash, aliens are wounded.... and now i've played a little with the game i'm having snipper with 36 TU. 2 rounds, and it keeps increasing. you have to "train" your soldier making them fire kill a lot.

Feature Requests / Re: accsebile reasearch + new facility + tactical map

« on: August 15, 2011, 10:15:58 am »

i never see a militarian changing affectation with is own package.he always uses this battalion equipment... so here it's base equipment... looks good.

(for research stuff, i've got 1 base with 7  labs. that's enough..., but i'm still i disagree your idea.)

FAQ / Re: “You must build next to existing buildings” Feature or Bug?

« on: August 13, 2011, 09:47:09 pm »

the real missing feature it's to allow construction next to unfinished building BUT with a penalty (the building may not start to construct before... let say.. 90% of the next building is finished). So you can design you base once and don't have to suffer micro-management.

Discussion / Re: formal authorisation to use licenced content

« on: August 13, 2011, 10:58:51 am »

@H-Hour, so, It's the worse situation cause releasing a game that run on a PC and a documentation software that runs on hosted server is really different in terms of security risks. Player computer may not access WW web, i will do...

Let say that i'm not seeing the game as the addition of several individual artwork but as consistent piece of work with at least enough unity to create a new distinct artwork that loose its meaning if only looked on the texture level. The best proof is that the textures and artwork are constantly changing (+90% of commits) but we always recognize the game. So i think this should do because i'm not trying to copy the rifle texture to remake an other rifle in an other game, but i'm trying to copy the 'feeling' of having a soldier carrying a rifle in the game, so i just need current copyrights-holder of the game authorization. Does not sound convincing? the problem is that you will have to refer to a local country law to know if it's acceptable.

What i will do, is to have a lazy approch an provide a contact form to request removal of content that is causing problems. I guess it will do a fair enough use for this form no being used.

t i'm not planning to do something rely extraordinary... i've almost did a browsable techtree, i will then implement a tool to compare weapons like the one on ufoai/contrib/script/generate_comprehensive_weapon_table.py with little more pragmatic approch then maybe a tool to comment base layout or something for UFO or whatever... maybe mods that were discussed on the forum ... if i'm still having the time.
