Discussion / 2.4 external installation limit

« on: June 03, 2011, 10:11:12 am »

Hi,

How many external installations can you build in 2.4 (latest dev.)? I read about 3 or 4 per base but a max of 16.

Now I have installed 4 ufo yards and 8 sam sites = 12 installations and cannot build more. I have 5 bases constructed atm.

So I'm a little bit confused...

Bugs prior to release 2.4 / bug with grenades and water

« on: May 17, 2011, 10:43:33 am »

Hi,

I was just playing map Small Wood and came across a bug. When you throw a grenade (in this case with grenade launcher) on a water field, the grenade just falls through the map and of course does not explode. Could see it fall through as the field was close to the edge of the world erm... map

Bugs prior to release 2.4 / freeze/crash when entering battlescape

« on: May 12, 2011, 10:21:09 pm »

Hi,

installed the latest dev version and started a game yesterday. beginning april about 4th or 5th mission the game freezes when the battlescape should be loaded when clicking win7 64 asks whether to end the programme because it's not responding anymore.

I started a new game today... again in april this time 6-7th mission, same problem. Is that a known bug/issue? (couldn't see anything here in the bug section). Even when reloading the game it crashes at the same point.

edit: seems that it has to do with "harvesting" missions (Erntemission)
edit2: well using 'automatic' for these missions at least keeps the game up, although it is annoying to reload until you win the battle.

Discussion / view intro video?

« on: May 10, 2011, 10:10:46 pm »

Hi,

I just downloaded 2.4 and started it and got an intro video (can't remember for 2.3) but my cat ran over the keyboard and intro was gone... when starting again there is no more intro. How can I see the intro again?

Hi,

Maybe I only missed it out but is there a thread about the differences between these 2 versions? or maybe a changelog to be found somewhere?

Discussion / IR goggles

« on: December 25, 2010, 11:26:18 am »

Hi,

A question about IR goggles, as I just found out how to use them after about 1 week of playing...

Do they have to be enabled for each turn? Or would they stay enabled all the time or just until I move that soldier again.

I ask because I got the impression that I need to turn them on every turn but then sometimes when moving a soldier, until now I only saw this happen with corpses lying around, bodies are still visible like in IR.

Translating / german test corrections

« on: December 13, 2010, 09:44:07 am »

Hi,

which file do I need to change in order to get the new translation working in the game. does such a change only affect new games or also savegames?

I just ask because I saw some German translation which is correct but too long so that gameplay is somewhat affected and I wanted to try if it would be better with some commonly used abbreviation in games translation.

I tried editing ufoai-de.po but it didn't seem to take effect, or do I need to do something else besidese of editing this file?
