LeftyRighty Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 I was testing the save/load bug and saved whilst a scout was "doing it's thing" near my base, no interceptors sent yet. Upon loading the red triangle ufo icon was top left, above the grey line showing the top of the movable geoscape around (where the grey text "authorisation.... valid" is). Attempting to intercept gave no eta, so it was out of range. (in the game that was saved the interceptors were sent out and downed the ufo, loading the save after downing the ufo cause ctd on load attempt) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lamhirh Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 from my experience it is moved to upper right corner of the map Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lauri_P Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 tried this one. Got ufo appearing east from Finland and saved. Loaded that save and same ufo was now upper right corner of map. I send my interceptors to attack it and they headed southeast and encountered another ufo that haven't been reported yet. I shot them down and the first ufo disappeared.

Lauri_P Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 It appears that when targeting that ufo in upper right corner, game generates ufo containing two light scouts randomly somewhere in map which my interceptors attack. Reason why I think it's generated right then is because this happens even in beginning of easy game (well I haven't checked this in later moments of game...) when there is usually single scouts. Also these don't leave site when they crashes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waju Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 (edited) I had a similar bug on loading a save game where I had two interceptors going after two UFOs before I saved and quit. The top interceptor was heading Norway - now west of Greenland, the bottom interceptor was heading Congo - now northern Brazil. Update: Going back into the game, I received the Escaped message, one interceptor was magically home, and the other was about to land.

mrsisk Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 I saved a game with two interceptors heading for one scout (already targeted). Something happened (can't remember what) that made me reload the game. The scout had moved to the upper left and there was no UFO in my radar range. I turned the speed up and my interceptors engaged the UFO where it used to be....only now there were TWO scouts, which didn't end well for the interceptors. Then when I reloaded again, I got a CTD and that save file was corrupted, wouldn't open. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Many things around save-loading were changed. It should fix this. Thanks for the report. (I'll check it anyways ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
