i like the cleaner sound of the guitar.

that chord progression, just grates a bit, though (40 seconds from the start and 47 seconds from the start). (are they diads?).

it does need that kind of refrain there. but that particular progression does not do it for me.

attach the savefile to the forum ("additional options" when you post).

which version are you using?

please post a savegame (I do not have any advanced ones with a lot of soldiers in lying around).

Its good, though I have not tried it in-game.

I am not such a fan of the guitar first starting around 35s in.

I do like the tense plucked bit around 1:56.

thanks for reporting.

there have been a lot of fixes around this part of the code in trunk (where 2.3 is being developed).

sorry this does not help you finish your 2.2.1 campaign. (I think savegames are not compatible any more - and anyhow 2.3 is probably even less stable ATM).

to get things going fast, i just tap [m] repeatedly. things accelerate quite fast enough.

we should be wary of cluttering the screen with too many buttons.

I have had snipers run out of ammo when left on reaction fire.

a message like scamp suggests would be good.

perhaps even a click (of trigger with no ammo) when they would have reacted.

remind me on IRC, if you think the message is a good idea, and I will see if I can do it.

bobbens is looking at it IIRC.

using lua. has some code in svn branch.

unfortunately he is tied up with other projects, so progress here is slow

I assume you are using GTKRadiant.

select the face or brush with misaligned texture. hit to bring up surface inspector. mess with horizontal/vertical alignment until it looks right.

you need your own seriously well-practised psionic soldiers to take down ethereals.

Hey, good work.

Can't test them for you (wrong OS).

should that read "nightly-builds", with a "t"?

A memory leak is a bug specific to a piece of software. It keeps allocating and never frees.
