Started a new game, opened Base menu screen and clicked the "Soldiers" tab. Immediate CTD. Tried again with exact same results. Edit:: Went back and tried to backdoor it through Personnel tab. Personnel Tab works in that it brings up the Personnel screen, but double-clicking a soldier to select them (and transfer to Soldier tab screen) also led to immediate CTD. Tried twice with same results.

In a vaguely related topic, I had a .50 cal armed Hunter shoot out a brick wall in a factory - like, completely destroyed a section making an impromptu door. Is this supposed to be able to happen?

Had an alien trapped in a room. Soldier with assault riffle fired a burst, hitting alien once, then moved soldier behind wall. At end of turn, alien runs around room, but no way out. After that I get Mission Complete screen with "1 Alien Escaped......-2". But he didn't escape. He was trapped and about ready to get murdered next turn. Mission ended randomly on its own before all aliens were neutralized.

Have had similar "sticky-door" experiences. As mentioned, right-clicking to turn soldier unsticks but uses a couple AP. Has occurred on multiple door types and positions

the first is not a bug, it's just the animation assigned to that action. It's been that way for awhile.

I for one am glad to welcome our new Sathrarian Overlord.

I loved the first SotS game + expansions. They took a decent game and made it great by constantly adding improvements. SotS2 was supposed to be all that plus everything else they've thought up. As Sathra says... boooring and slow. Hard to find where/how to do anything, nowhere near as simple or intuitive an interface as the original. Looks like they got carried away with the whole "let's make it 3D" craze and forgot to make it easy and fun. Current posts say they (Kerberos) will refund if desired, or give a free copy of SotS1 if you want. But they swear to spend the next month getting it to where it should have been with twice-weekly updates. Based on how well they improved the first game, I have hope.
