[V1.29D - Ground combat] Selecting C4 detonator crashes the game.

[rdxhmx]

Activating C4 to breach an alien ship outer door deterministically crashes the game.

The C4 is on top of a cloaking alien corpse next to the outer door of the second size alien vessel. (Destroyer?) This is the first time I have used C4, so I don't know if anything is unusual. To reproduce the crash from the attached save file select Honza Vavra (left of the door) and click on the C4 detonator. The TU action cost pane switched from the rifle set to the detonator set before freezing and crashing. (Possibly related: the detonator ammo is "0/0". Not sure if it's supposed to be like that.)

Actually, possibly related: I'm noticing that the game is failing to render destroyed terrain, but loading from a save file properly shows it.
1) Early in the level I used two detonation charges to destroy a wall with no effect, but after loading from save the wall is destroyed as expected.
2) In the turn 15 autosave the highlighted walls are shown as intact, but in the following turn autosave they are shown to be destroyed. I know that this is a rendering issue and not that the wall was later destroyed because if you load the turn 15 autosave, kill the cloaked alien, and then walk to the room with the generator(?) the unit will path through the wall.

This isn't necessarily related since selecting the detonator still crashes the game when things are properly rendered (AFAICT), but since it hints at corrupted state I figured it might be relevant.

Thanks. Yeah, this is on our to-fix list. The issue is that the C4 will crash if you load a save after it has been placed, and then try to detonate it.
