Same happened to me, had to edit the research.xml to get them. http://www.goldhawkinteractive.com/forums/showthread.php/9381-MAG-weapons

Simply removing the AssaultPlasma requirement didn't work, the research does not show up. What did work: change the item required for the AssaultPlasma to another item (plasma cannon) and doing a combat mission where one dropped, now the research is available. Here is a save, there are AssaultPlasmas lying around the GC, however the research will not trigger. [ATTACH]3105[/ATTACH] bug.sav bug.sav

Seems to be a bug, game does not want to give me that research, even with the weapon lying around the GC.

Yeah. I do not have Alien Assault Plasma research, and I did a few Battleships/Carriers with Praetors on them...

So, I researched everything except Operation Endgame, and still have no MAG weapons. Did they remove them or did I miss something huge?

They should at least attack the blue/morale bar, so only low morale units are in danger/you can protect yourself by raising morale again. Tbh, the fear attacks are not really a threat, but REALLY annoying to have 5+ pew sounds every turn from some psi attack. Dread is even worse. Edit: I know that morale should have an influence, at least the tips tell you so. I didn't really see anything, everyone had 99/99+ morale and got controlled/feared like crazy.

Screeny. Basically the whole rock is non-existent.

You could use the Steam-overlay screenshot function, or other tools like Fraps/Dxtory.

So, I played around a bit with CheatEngine cause I really wanted to continue that game - the bug seems unrelated to the UFO. Only when I relocate the troop transport so it arrives instantly at the base, the crash does not occur. It then crashes a few (ingame) hours later again, still no idea why.

May be related to http://www.goldhawkinteractive.com/forums/showthread.php/8242-20-5-after-departure-from-alien-base-mission-a-stable-CTD as it too happens when the troops are returning from an alien base assault. Savegame here, as soon as UFO-27 leaves the radar range of the base, the game crashes.

Then that screen should be reworked, because the way it looks right now is stupid - lines for points you can never reach, and the impossibility of getting a "good" rating.

Edit: As I was informed, this change was intentional - my bugreport would then be that the screen in its current form is very confusing http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=200769582 Basically, I only get negative points (and not even those all the time, as in this screeny there is no penalty for the dead trooper, but the fight before the was). Nothing for kills or even winning the mission.

Jupp, got the same. screenshot
