V25.1 Experimental Released (Closed Beta)

[Chris]

This hotfix addresses a number of issues the community promptly discovered within V25. You'll need to be on the Experimental Branch to access the build. If you want to continue your V25 campaign playthough then switch to the Legacy Experimental branch, as this update will break saves.

• Temporarily increased the number of save games retained up to 1000 in both strategy and ground combat. I've done this because there's a very annoying data corruption bug I want to try and track down that often only causes problems a long time after the corruption occurs.
• Fixed an issue where V25 just wouldn't boot up on GOG unless you were logged into Steam.
• Fixed an issue where planes that were shot down would never fully repair themselves.
• Fixed a crash with Mind Control (which could occur as a result of fighting Psyons).
• Fixed the Psyon ability Mesmerise triggering independently for every shot in a burst; it now triggers once if none of the shots in the burst hit the Psyon you were aiming at.
• Mesmerise now no longer triggers from grenade throws.
• Wraiths now correctly show a visual effect when Cloaking Field is active.
• Fixed Wraiths flickering as they moved during night missions.
• The advanced armour modules for soldiers (Alloy Plating, etc) now all actually provide an Armour bonus like they're supposed to.
• Tooltip for the Steel Plates soldier inventory module now shows its effect (+3 Armour).
• Tooltip for the Tactical Module soldier inventory module now has its own description text.
• Tooltip for Radar Detection now correctly reflects that you can extend the base radar range by building up to three radars.
• Laser Sniper Rifle ammo now has a unique image.
• The desert trailer park houses now have proper VFX for their destruction states.
• Fixed several terrain objects that were behaving incorrectly with regards to destruction, and a couple of Dockyard tiles that had missing materials.
• The windows in the Boreal sawmill now only have a 40% blocking chance, not a 60% blocking chance.

Let us know if you continue to experience further bugs in the game.

Thanks for the Update Chris.

But please get the Tile-Waste for Radars away. The previous System with Upgrades was much better.
