Support for runtime code-centric mods has been built in from the start. The game has been programmed from a "hook" perspective and I will make sure we release documentation on how this works once we fully release. I've also already looked into Harmony / other runtime patchers in the past to check compatibility and we're explicitly keeping things in C# (as opposed to IL2CPP) to provide mod support for this. My plan is to release a public example project that shows how to use it.

Problem with steam and GOG experimental game version
Gijs-Jan replied to NeoDiablo's topic in Xenonauts-2 General Discussion
Is the Steam build also crashing/hanging for you, or is the question on Steam simply where to see the version number of the game? -
While not something you can easily set in settings, it is something that should be straightforward to mod in! Because what would "more aliens" mean? In certain missions +4 might be ok, but in others that might overwhelm. It would require a rebalancing of the game that goes way beyond a simple setting you can adjust

v22.4 CTD when decommissioning Angels1-3 at second base
Gijs-Jan replied to AUGdawg's topic in Xenonauts-2 Bug Reports
Hi, we weren't able to reproduce this locally - could you provide us with one of the saves where it happens? -
Item Duplication Bug / Exploit Still There
Gijs-Jan replied to Wyldefyre_CP's topic in Xenonauts-2 General Discussion
This is definitely not as intended - and we recently stumbled onto a bug with how items got assigned through the loadouts that touched on the MARS. That seemed to be related to soldiers coming back from missions being the cause somehow. It seems you've got a good understanding of when it happens - do you maybe have a set of steps to replicate it? If I simply boot up the game and add in limited items, the loadouts work as intended in that trying to apply a loadout that you don't have the items for will lead to soldiers without items. -
[v 22.3] ground combat - CTD at the end of turn 4
Gijs-Jan replied to squeezechart's topic in Xenonauts-2 Bug Reports
Thank you for the complete bug report, this report finally gives me some good insight in what's going on and should allow me to attempt a possible fix! -
[v 22.2] freeze after killing last alien
Gijs-Jan replied to squeezechart's topic in Xenonauts-2 Bug Reports
It'll be quite the thing to debug, but could you give me the info on what failed and what stopcode was given the next time it occurs? See the red outlined parts. -
[v 22.2] freeze after killing last alien
Gijs-Jan replied to squeezechart's topic in Xenonauts-2 Bug Reports
Hi, given that this is the second report in which you mention running into a bluescreen, could you post the information that was presented by it? Do you experience the hang still if you load the turn_5-end-80 save? We locally already fixed several end-of-turn hangs, so I suspect this one's fixed in the upcoming hotfix. -
Would you be able to upload any logs or saves?

Probably best as that can be a lengthy discussion -

Disgusting changes in october update.
Gijs-Jan replied to UGI's topic in Xenonauts-2 General Discussion
Hi, We haven't looked at the visuals of shooting in GC for quite a bit and because a lot of new assets got introduced need to give it another pass - so likely this is a temporary change. Having said that, it would really help us fix the issue if you could provide some details on the specific issues you have with it. Is it mechanical (Do you feel they miss more, hit more, etc) or visual (it looks bad)? What specifically felt or looked bad and do you maybe have screenshots or recordings of it? (or maybe a save game?) What was the last version you played prior to this version? -
will this virus stuff stop/delay release?
Gijs-Jan replied to gbusrt's topic in Xenonauts-2 General Discussion
Most of us work remotely at the moment. I myself working from the southern part of the Netherlands. So, excluding anything unforeseen such as actually getting ill, it'll affect us less than some other companies. -
It's simply a matter of time and manpower but definitely planned - it's just not a priority at the moment. You are right in the quick win w.r.t. compression, although we need to do that on part of the file so we can support the Save/Load elements' partial loading. There's a bunch of other optimizations planned as well to do with aliasing the common patterns, etc. I assumed Windows because I didn't think that on Linux you would have issue pretty-print formatting it efficiently. It might be that the Save/Load Element will give issue as it's only partially loading files and scanning for (extremely simple) terminator patterns, but the underlying load system has no issue with formatted JSON.
-
The problem is that the file is already gigantic (relatively speaking) and pretty printing increases the size even more given how / what we serialize. (The pretty print doesn't really concern itself with speed either. For the size we've got an optimization pass planned) If you're Windows based I suggest taking a look at Notepad++ with a JSON formatting plugin which works well even with very large files. (https://github.com/sunjw/jstoolnpp, https://sourceforge.net/projects/jsminnpp/ or https://sourceforge.net/projects/nppjsonviewer/)

Most of the current high-CPU usage (when everything is "idling") is coming from the dynamic batching that Unity is doing as most meshes haven't been statically batched. Given that we're in a destructible environment that's rather hard to do and we want to wait until late in development where we better know which usecases we can easily batch, and which ones we cannot. Having said that - High CPU temperature is mostly because the machine is simply using what's asked from it. I can "optimize" the game (to give more FPS), but I'll always ask the hardware to give it's fullest potential. In a game you tend not to want to leave performance on the table... A framelimiter does mitigate this if FPS is high enough for you and I'll add it as a task for the settings screen for Chris to review.

Can you maybe provide a screenshot of what you mean? I'm having a bit of a hard time following what you mean by "go run back out of cover to get around them the long way".
-
The error is popping up in the interaction between logic and animation - a pretty notorious (in it's instability) section of Unity's API. That specific code is not multi-threaded (90% of our core logic is single-threaded, only the FOW calculations run off-thread and they are isolated). We have been able to replicate the issue once or twice (in the past two years) on build, every time adding new logging and getting a new piece of the puzzle. If there is anything unique about your setup I suspect it might be in how you issue orders.

Missed the Survey how can i get my key
Gijs-Jan replied to Gambler41's topic in Xenonauts-2 General Discussion
Yeah, he's away on a short holiday (he needs one!). I've added it to the morning review on Monday so it won't get forgotten. -
Thanks for trying out the build on Linux! I suspect issues, if any, are mostly in Ground Combat with regards to shaders. Feel free to report any issues in either this thread, so we can collate them, or through the F12 bug report but make sure to mention you run on Linux for custom bug reports. Having said that officially we won't support a Linux build at this moment. Unofficially I'll keep an eye on this thread and those reports.
