@Old Doggy Bastardgetting more cleaner data = faster Cleaner Base reveal

@Chris i forget to ask about 1 more thing - are there plans for more types of medals for soldiers? And kinda rework of them where they dont give +1 all to all atributes instead +1 for reflex or aim or bravery or HP. Why i am asking this? When i look and think about the future -> youtubers and streamers when they gonna stream Xenonauts-2. When they enter Armory they gonna see: 1. Soldiers Stats 2. Soldier Armor 3. Soldier Weapon Types 4. Medals When people gonna spend time grinding missions and notice soldier stats are growing, they all gonna get same armor, nearly same weapons. But there is 1 unique part what people always gonna be Late game grinding = Medals. I feel like Medals are gonna be late game unique part of the game that gonna show trully character progression.

When save reload items(animation) on the ground are dissapearing (Weapons/Magazines/Grenades) - you have to literly remember where you dropped item go there and they gonna show up on backpack inventory. user_item_ground_animation_bug-4.json

Computer Desks are still glowing after grabbing them when save reload and in mission it shows 20/10 user_computer_desk_reload_save_bug-3.json

Posting screenshots and game save file: When soldier has -1 or more weight - game = can't remove items from inventory + its stuck user_drop_item_bug-1.json user_soldiers_inventory_before_cleaner_intelligence_hub-2.json

Did you also fixed item destruction caused by those smoke launchers?

@Chris I gonna test 27.3 now but i feel like you gonna be still able to abuse Cleaner Cells. If you want chris i can livestream my gameplay on Discord if you want watch.

@Chris you gonna be able to reproduce it with ez - just keep using Smoke Grenade Launcher - because this bug is very randomized - it's like - you gonna crash - reload save and game gonna work for 7-8 turn until you reload Grenade launcher again. Use my save i uploaded. Ofcourse you can kinda get mad at me, because i am a little bit abusing game mechanics in gameplay into my advantage xD.

@Chris i feel like when game gonna be on release - Custom options or Long war - whatever you call it should be unlocked after you finish first campaing in Xeno-2

@ChrisIf people gonna start using Smoke Grenade Launcher - after 7/8 turns they gonna experience crash - always happening when you reload Grenade launcher clip at that gameplay stage.

Answer to 1) Camp 1 corner - press abort mission button - return, do it again - ez game. I am telling you @Chris you need to nerf things or = abuse 100% 3) You can't think about tech as interesting or not - everything you create = content. I like the way how X1 tech tree was designed - you had to go step by step with unlocking everything. To be honest with you - i feel like you should create 2 or 3 types of tech tree: a. Regular tech tree = For first campaing run. b. Speedrun tech tree = for players who want achieve world record in beating xenonauts-2 (Twitch/Youtube Content) - encourage more players to buy the game. https://www.speedrun.com/games c. Long war tech tree - for player who finish campaing in the first run - they get unlock extra options and start new campaing with it. If you watch for example livestreams on Twitch or Youtube - there is a lot of people who watch and play this kind of gameplay - encourage players to play X2 campaing multiple times - more players buy the game. 8) I forget the name of the giant walking robots but they look like androns from X1 no joke, but 1 Hand/1 Hook this time. @Chris When you gonna have free time check twitch streamers like this dude when streams longwar with 300+ viewers always.: https://www.twitch.tv/mexicandance/clip/BetterJollyClipsdadYouWHY-35W40VafWtB4fG9K?filter=clips&range=all&sort=time https://www.twitch.tv/mexicandance/clip/DreamyNastyVelociraptorKevinTurtle-3RqE9LBeX0AlgY47?filter=clips&range=all&sort=time

@ChrisPlease only don't kill me for my previous post because i feel like you murder me for it. Please don't cut my water supplies.

@ChrisI already experienced how to play on this map and i have to say you created the most exploitable/abusive map in Xenonauts-2. And i am telling you, if you not nerf spawning Cleaners in this type of mission = Early game Colonels. Chris i dont know if you watched my YT videos from the past when i was playing Xeno-2 but if you gonna watch my gameplay style - you gonna notice i got skills on finding exploits/abusing game mechanics. If i am telling you this is exploitable, you better check it and verify yourself how to play this mission and beat it in other ways.

@chris Soldier inventory weapon Grenade Launcher - you got 2 types of bullets - Explosive and Smoke - i only abuse Smoke Grenade because - Smoke spam and Reflex = everything suppresed

@Chris Sadly yesterday you released 27.2 and i wasnt able to complete run on 27.1 but my personal opinion after experiencing last patch on Commander Run: 1. Cleaner Cells are the most abusive map ever created to farm soldier stats - Give everyone Sniper Riffles -> go 1 corner -> press End Turn button like 20 times = everyone +3 stats to everything. After 10 games = Early game Colonels because spawning 6 cleaners every 2 turn is broken. 2. Aliens need more types of weapons because it feels like Riffle or pistol is the only existing weapon on alien race and Humans were able to develop Machine Guns/Snipers/Shotguns even Shields - Make Aliens great again. 3. After removing Alien alloys and Alenium research game kinda feels like - something is missing - humans instantly find out about purpose of alien alloys and alienium just by touch i guess. 4. Game needs more alien weapon types of research, because i can just simply press the button and skip the previous weapon tech without experiencing it. Who need accelerated weapons - lasers for the bros. 5. Game needs a lot of maps, because playing on same maps again and again can make people bored and if you guys gonna release on Alpha same amount of maps. People who gonna stream on Twitch this game gonna get bored or even laught at it. There is a lot of streamers/youtubers who likes to explore maps. Keep that in mind @Chris. 6. I feel like the inside walls/design of UFO need to be like 2-3 types, like in Xeno-1, it kinda feels like repeating process. 7. UFO inside walls need huge buff, because i give my entire Soldier Team Machine Guns - i press 1 button all walls gone = no need to walk inside UFO. When Laser Machine Guns unlock = Perfect 100% abuse wall remover. 8. Androns also need redesing because they look like a Pirates - 1 Hand / 1 Hook

Smoke Grenade Launcher removes -2 armor and destroy items on the ground. Also i can destroy bodies of killed or stunned aliens. On screen you see alien body - when you open inventory = destroyed item. There is also a bug where when player is using smoke grenade launcher - when you got last bullet in grenade launcher -> take a shot = out of ammo -> next round you reload = game crash --- i noticed it only happends after 7-8 turns of gameplay. Please fix this weapon - Smoke grenade launcher its the most OP weapon for abusing game mechanics please to beat game in easy way xD.

When i captured alien leader and moved him to dropship it's still not detect him as complete part of the mission. Next when i press Abort Mission to simply get the items i already connected - it crashes games at map screen. To be honest i am playing last 2 campaings on Commander difficulty - it's like too many Cleaners spawn and makes game laggy, longer it takes to end Enemy turn and not the mention every 2 turns like 2x3=6 in total spawn on 3 different locations. After 20 turns it's like Cleaner Zerg on the map. user_cleaner_cell_bugged-10.json output.log output.log.1

@Chris I feel like Androns should be separate alien faction like in X1 and being able to hold weapons. When i always see Androns - i always imagine them as pirates - 1 Hand , 1 Hook

You need to also add game language in Polish(Poland), because i know a lot of friends who search atm for a game similar to XCOM, but in Polish language. = lots of future clients.

@Christhis game also needs a lot of maps - thats for sure.

Save + Logs below ------------ it could be also Andron Bug - someone game makes 0 sense output.log output.log_1.5c29b6f5dbc758190320df9ab2aeefd6 auto_groundcombat_turn_18_start-1311.json

For some time i am using Smoke Grenade Launcher in campaing for defense - and later i noticed there is some issue with reloading this weapons. I tried many times to reproduce this bug, but issue is when i reload that save - game is working normal. This bug is very randomized and it's only happening when you reload grenade launcher with smoke rounds. I was streaming on YT and Twitch at the same time. If you go to video 3 Hours 54 Minutes 25 Seconds - you will see that game gonna crash after reloading this weapon. On this video you can check what i did step by step that could cause this bug.

@Chris i found a lot of bugs - i gonna make a list tomorrow and describe everything
