I think this is the poorest solution to the problem. I'm worried that without the psychological effect of getting scored on your performance at the ned of the mission it will be less fun...
Wait will the xenonauts, civvies and local forces death as well as alien escapes still provide penalties? Showing only penalties sounds like it will either make the player stop caring after a while or bum the player out.
I really wish you would reconsider this Chris.

Could you imagine it moving? The game would have to lock the screen at 3 stories high, and in my minds eye I could see painful issues where a third of the thing moves faster than the other two thirds (Apocalypse springs to mind, actually).
Maybe it could be scaled down to 2 storeys and 1 tile base? ^^
Ah one can dream =)
-
Do you have any sprites (or ingame screenshot) of the scuttler? I think seeing details might be overrated and that something small spiderlike could work very well indeed, without it beeing clear/relying on how pretty it is. Less might be more ^^
Aah, too bad about the Juggernaut. I would have liked to see a multi storey enemy. The concept fascinates me, but I can see how troublesome that might be.

Yeah I think taking away the rating and positive points from ground combat, even from the ones where you get relationship benefits for shooting down the ufo is a mistake. The debreifing screen needs to have some a "reward" beyond soldiers leveling up. Some kind of pat on the head and telling the player he is a good boy.. yes he is, yes he is. Here is a biscuit!
Ok that got a bit silly but something is required or the player will feel dissapointed.

"Tee Ess"? Curse you acronyms!!!!

This sounds incredibly tricky to add such features. Especially this late when the game is essentially feature complete, and featurecreep would delay the game by several months.
TBH I think it is very unlikely that this will be added.

Thanks a lot for your answers.
One question more:
While Charlie (or interceptor) is out on a mission the aliens attack it's home base and destroy it. What happens to the aircraft? Do I have a chance to redirect it somewhere else? What if other bases have full docks?
Aircrafts are basically extensions of the hanger so: No, that aircraft will be lost and can not be rediurected to another hanger. Depending on if Goldhawk has forseen that set of prerequesits or not that might cause some bugs or a crash if that happens
-
Nooo! that sounds awesome
Why were they scrapped? -
Set the game resolution 1680*1050,Then open the "Base Management" page,You will find more than a part of the right side of this page.
Also in other resolutions, the base page is displayed correctly.
But which build are you playing? Version number.

2. Isn't there a workaround to reload the autosave for the first turn in that mission?
-
If you can upload the savefile to a filehosting site the Golwhawk team will surely appriciate it
-
Descan can you load the save game after reinstalling? do you still get problems on that map?
-
Curses!" Markon tricked me! (by means of me reading too fast)
Where would there have beeen listed as KIA if they were listed as recovereing in the debreifing?
Oh well. If they are not listed as KIA then I have no iddues
-
"killed" does not imply they are dead? I think someone has played too much quake...
-
footprints and cloud shadows are outside the scope of the engine afaik.
-
But should those gravely wounded people be listed as KIA in the mission debreifing?

Gorlom, I am a commissar.
It is my job to be stern.
You're a stack of pancakes. your job is to be delicious with strawberry jam (or sirup)

Ah, makes total sense! Unfortunately, there is no such tab, although I do have an empty hangar. I'm running v19 since I'm boycotting the Steam client. Maybe that's the issue?
There was an UI update between 19 and 20 yes but it should still be possible somewhere regardless of which version you are playing.
There is no tab in your base that lets you manage and arm your aircrafts? That sounds really strange...
I would suggest that you watch some lets play vids on youtube or something. Sooner or later they are bound to buy a condor.

Stk kind of quoted you saying the game was turnbased and didn't happen at the same time thoughNo, it is intended behavior. If you're playing an FPS game and an enemy bursts into a room unexpectedly, everyone takes a shot at him at the same time. It's a reaction thing - hence reaction fire.
Is there some coding issue that prevents multiple characters triggering on the same alien movement but stopping or interrupting their reaction fire if the alien dies before it is their turn? or why would only 1 get to shoot if you made it differently?If we did it the other way, people would complain when an alien walked into a room full of Xenonauts on overwatch, shrugged off a rifle bullet and then killed everyone inside with a grenade. They'd ask why only one man is allowed to shoot at a target, given how tough the aliens can be.The hybrid system where you wait to see if an alien is killed by one Xenonaut before processing reaction fire from other Xenonauts is even less realistic, and too game-y for my liking. So the system we use isn't perfect in every situation but it's better than the alternatives.Wasn't this system used by X-com though? It's kind of what is expected from us players and the only system that feels fair from our point of view. The other systems feels like they are give an unfair advantage towards the side that triggers the reaction fire of multiple units simultaniously.
What do you mean by "too game-y for my liking"? gamelike or exploitable? You haven't really been trying to mimic realism at the cost of gameplay so far imo. Why are you starting now?

try to select Disable Stat Tracking before you launch the game. Does that help?
This option has confusedd people earlier soto clarrify you need to make sure that the box is checked to disable the stat tracking and improve performance.
It's really weird to enable something to disable I know

He wasn't expressing dissatisfication, he was merely saying that you won't convince anyone here (but forgot to think about people discovering your youtube vid from elsewhere) since we all already love it
(He really should have included a smily the silly bugger
)I think you did not direct the sentance pancakes quoted at this forum but towards people in general
-
If you are worried about that Xenonaut123 then I suggest you play something else while you wait for the Goldhawk team to finish.
No point in frustrating yourself to no end if it kills your enjoyment of the game.
-
Sounds like some file is missing or corrupt. First try validating your installation (if on steam) if that doesn't work reinsttall the game.
If that doesn't work then I ahve no idea what to do.

Have you tried smoke grenades? flashbangs? machinegun supressions? Assult shileds?

The chance to reaction fire could possibly be fiddled with or something if you think reactionfire is being too overpowered.
